DJ Cam - Substances (1996 Inflammable)

Released only one year after his Underground Vibes (known as Mad Blunted Jazz in the US) became worldwide success, DJ Cam's second album was doomed to stay in the shade of his debut. The sound is more experimental and introverted but there's still a couple of great tracks of abstract instrumental hip hop. Innervisions, Meera and Lost Kingdom are still my favs after all those years.
