A concept album if there ever was one, Heaven’s Computer finds 7even literally crash landing on this planet as Max Redrum, a being from a foreign world sent to scout the globe on an apocalyptic mission. Armed with a violent temper, a sharp wit and an artificially intelligent advisor by the name of Alfie, 7even’s initial aim to ready the earth for obliteration gets detoured as he begins to learn about humanity and discovers some in himself. The story is backed by spacey, trunk-rattling funk courtesy of Sweden’s Erik L, plus 7evenThirty’s longtime friend and collaborator 5-D, as well as Mr. Slago. The sound is at times ominous (“Space Gangsta”), at times feel-good (“Get Up!!!”), but always uncompromisingly rooted in head-snapping boom-bap.
