Time? Astonishing!

L’Orange & Kool Keith

2015

Time? Astonishing! is about a man in the early 20th century who is a bored explorer and finds technology to go into the future – but he does so without any sense of adventure. He travels through time as if he is traveling to Tuscaloosa. He is then hospitalized as insane and then goes into suspended animation (a metaphor for his subconscious while sedated in the hospital). The adventure begins only after the album is finished, the record is all the thoughts and introspection before things really begin.
