Upon delivering the album, the man behind the wheel, Obie Rudolph, broke down what he had in mind as he put the album together, and how he's grown since releasing Abstractica and [http://supernatural.bandcamp.com/album/da-etherbeets-eb-extended-bump|Da Etherbeets EB Extended Bump].

Abstractica and Car Therapy differ but coincide with each other in so many different ways. In terms of technical skill behind the production and boards; mixing, and such, Car Therapy is loads better than Abstractica. I've come a long way from the summer of last year and I've learned so much, especially working on Da Etherbeets with Kosherbeets. I actually stayed with him for a span of some months working on the album alongside him in his studio. We knew of each other in high school, became friends afterward, and have done tracks and shows here and there, but we really bonded/connected with Da Etherbeets. A lot of the things I've learned in terms of mixing and sound came recently after studying him in sessions. I'm a visual learner, if I can see what you're doing I can emulate it and learn from there so that helped a lot. He also gave me a lot of pointers and tips as I worked on the majority of Car Therapy at his studio.
