Noted for his distinct use of hip hop rhythms and world music samples, Tigermoth has increasingly incorporated elements of psychedelica, abstract, vocal narratives and vivid, synthesized soundtracks into his work. 'Effort & Essence' is the pinnacle of these stylings.

Taking influence from '60s science fiction authors such as Arthur C. Clarke and Philip K Dick, the LA beats scene and the grimier side of modern trap, 'Effort & Essence' explores a more futuristic sound and is available now. Tigermoth shares his favourite sci-fi films of all time.
1. '2001: A Space Odyssey'
Everything Kubrick did is gold.{youtube}ypEaGQb6dJk{/youtube}
2. 'Ghost In The Shell'
I love the way this film explores the idea of the soul. Singularity and aoi.{youtube}oP2Pt6m3yKU{/youtube}
3. 'Blade Runner'
With regards to artificial intelligence, this is the original and the best. Ridley Scott at his greatest.4. 'A Planet Of The Apes' (original)
Charlton Heston relegated to B-Grade Hollywood actor, does a fine job over-acting in this post-apocalyptic sci-fi romp.{youtube}VjcpRHuPjOI{/youtube}
5. 'The Empire Strikes Back'
The opening snow scenes, the introduction of Boba Fet, and the way it leaves people hanging for the follow up, makes this the greatest 'Star Wars' ever.Tigermoth Shows
