Maybe it was that downtime at Creedmoor Mental Hospital, but after he tuned out following the breakup of the hardheaded seminal hip-hop group the Ultramagnetic MCs, something must have flipped Kool Keith's wig like a mescaline pizza. I can think of no other way to explain the mutant birth of Dr. Octagonecologyst. Literally assuming another personality on this record, Dr. Octagon--Kool Keith on the mike, with Dan "The Automater" Nakamura producing--transmits unearthly rhymes like tractor beams to your cranium. Then he squirms around in there, grabs some Vaseline from your medicine cabinet, and does a little dance. The first time you listen to cuts like "Earth People" and "Blue Flowers," you might have to change the way you listen to hip-hop. The standards are the same--verse, chorus, verse, with plenty of nasty skits in the middle--and there are electro-beat shades of his predecessors, such as Afrika Baambaata, but the wordplay and beat compositions are truly light years from most hip-hop. Listening to this album is like trying to read the glyphs from Stargate. --Todd Levin

how can you possibly hate this truckers? kool keith at his most imaginative... don't even think about dissing... how could you possibly? for what he is trying to achieve here, koo keith and kid koala achieve in leaps and bounds...

killer beats, and space style extreme. ground-breaking hip hop: expect nothing less from early kool keith. Try dr doom and sex style. avoid albums after that. he went downhill.

5 out of 5 stars What is there to say that hasn't already been said?.......2006-10-18

To some, bugged-out is an insult. To Kool Keith, it's a lifestyle. While other emcees talk about how insane they are, and use it merely as a gimmick, Keith has time spent in an asylum as proof of his authenticity. Is spending time in a padded-room neccessarily something to take pride in? Absolutely not. But for Kool Keith, it's something that has greatly set him apart from his contemporaries.

There isn't a moment on this album that Keith, under his Dr. Octagon alias, is even close to being sane; the stuff he spits is so outrageous, and so absurd, that even if you lived your life as a continuous acid trip, this album would still fly over your head like the UFOs Keith's so obsessed with. When he does the chorus to "Earth's People," spitting "Earth's people, New York and California, earth's people, I was born on Jupiter," he'll literally leave you scratching your temple for days on end, pondering what the heck he just said.

Yet he's so dope on the microphone, it doesn't matter. Track after track, he comes correct with tight, albeit off-beat flows, with intricate rhymes about the most random of things. On No Awareness, he opens the song with "Your organic medical talk propels off my arms, the atom bomb final Lionel Richie not couth for this battle. I battle sing-sing-sing like bing-bing-bing," and understanding that is next to impossible. Sometimes Keith doesn't even bother to rhyme, yet his flow will have you thinking otherwise, as he never loses it throughout this release.

The production is absolutely phenomenal. Dan The Automator is clearly one of the best behind the boards, and doesn't get the proper credit he deserves in most hip-hop circles. The production is eery, and the science-fiction influences are heavy; much like Keith's rhymes themselves. There is not a single bad piece of music on this album, from either the emcee or his producer; creating a masterpiece which, unfortunately for Keith, greatly overshadows his enormous catalogue.

While Keith may've disowned the Dr. Octagon alias due to this album's success, and not attracting the audience he'd wanted, that doesn't change the fact that this as original an album as you'll find in any form of music. Recommended to any hip-hop head with an open mind.

5 out of 5 stars Some Earth People Will Feel Alienated..........2006-07-19

But that's because Keith is an alien himself. When a collective of hip hop enthusiasts from the Ego Trip staff ranked Kool Keith as the number 19th greatest emcee of all-time (one ahead of Tupac) in there book of lists, they were not taking it lightly. He wasn't your standard A-B rhymer. He was shattering rules of rhyme structure since his glory days with the Ultramagnetic Mcs. He always possessed an unorthodoxed off-beat flow, passionate vocal tone, and boasts so brazen they stunned his listener into silence. Who would have thought that the leader of that group would turn into a perverse alien who happened to have his record drop from another planet to turn from thermal nuclear residue to Earth in compact format (read the album cover notes to understand where i'm comin' from).

Dr. Octagon is a groundbreaking release that is best enjoyed after countless listens. The best records are the ones you have to go back over and decipher new meanings. Never one to waste a rhyme, Keith opens up with "3000" on some bugged out wordplay, "Channels and handles Automator's on the panels/ turnin knobs you slobs suckers like Baskin Robs/carvel don't tell your whole crew is ice cream fudge/rappers that budge makin moves step in grooves/and ride the pace like at thirty-three dark shades/ now you seein me/ rap moves on to the year three thousand". Just a few bars of his breathless liners doesn't do the space alien gynocologist much justice. You could spend your whole summer vacation trying to get a grasp on these otherworldly phrases.

Even with the off the wall lyricism, the album wouldn't be the nearly enjoyable experience if it wasn't for Dan Automators genius turntable techniques and sci-fi horror backdrops. Just peep "Halfsharkhalfalligatorman" (long winded title!) and the incredible "Blue Flowers" for proof! The album is just filled with surprises at every corner. However, no other song on Dr. Octagon captivated me more than "Girl, Let Me Touch You". To this day, it stands as one of my personal all-time favorite non-singles on any hip hop record. Automators production is effortlessly hypnotic, Keith's persona is as abstact as ever, and no matter what mood I was in...the song would just set things straight.

In conclusion, Dr. Octagon is a stone cold classic. I don't care how many non-believers this record sparked. So what if he's different. His individuality separates Keith from the rest. How many emcees have the ability to go as far to credit "Kelly Wootang" on drums and "Curt Kobane" on vocals (you should be buggin' out with those references). Besides, too many hip hop records take themselves way too seriously with yet far too many more gimmicks. Kool Keith doesn't care. He wouldn't take sides, regarding the Tupac Biggie beef. He would rather diss both of them and be done with it (Pluckin' Cards ring a bell)? Keith would put out some good material after this, but after "Sex Styles", there was far too much B.S. Hell, even DJ Shadow got in on one cut and this was the same year he put out the timeless, "Endtroducin'". Grab this record anyway you can before it criminally goes out of print.

5 out of 5 stars One of the greatest.......2006-05-19

This is one of the great hip-hop albums of all time. "Deltron 3030" is another one. Buy this or live a deprived existence.

Album Description

At last, the official sequel to Dr. Octagon featuring Kool Keith, One Watt Sun, DJ Dexter and Princess Superstar

The Return Of Dr. Octagon is the follow-up to Kool Keith's 1996 critically acclaimed Dr. Oncagonecoloyst (Dream Works), a psychedelic hip-hop concept album about a deadly, libidinous and doped-up doctor.

Return of Dr.Octagon is deeper, funkier and more spaced out than the original album. This time around Keith's groundbreaking mic skills and schizophrenic imagination compliment the mysterious production and collaborators. Dr. Octagon has reinvented himself covering a broad lyrical range that includes everything from socially conscious sermonizing to intergalactic martian fables.

1 out of 5 stars dr. octa-shit.......2007-02-11

i didn't think anything could be more of a waste of money than "nogatco rd.", but i was wrong. this sucks. wack beats, boy-band casio melodies, and it's short, which is actually a good thing.

get project polaroid if you want anything in the same vein as the stuff keith did with kutmasta kurt, which is really the only good stuff he's done.

4 out of 5 stars Two worn-down turntables and a microphone the size of an elephant's trunk.......2007-02-01

The Doctor cuts the same swath of cut-and-paste mixed-breed hip-hop as DJ Shadow, Cut Chemist and The Avalanches. Dense soundscapes designed for the dance floor or the acid test, peppered with zany skits involving bodily fluids and extraterrestrials, the disc moves along like a ferris wheel on the loose. "A Gorilla Driving a Pick-Up Truck" is a song that lives up to its disturbing image, a musky, syrupy entry that sounds like "Bone Machine"-era Tom Waits with a dash of '80s synth and table scratching with bug-bite gusto, and this lyrical morsel: "He's throwing bananas under my wheels; I'm slidin' going down those Texas hills." One envisions The Doctor eventually descending to his bunker in the belly of a metropolis, smoking fat blunts, ham radio blaring ill logic in the background, surgical tools soaking in the sink.

4 out of 5 stars suckas........2006-11-18


Someone has been pushing the rumor that this is not legit. or intended by Keith. I guess he hates it so much he made a video for "aliens" which I saw the other day on NY Noise, which features the artist throughout and credits the label. the rumor of illegitmacy must be false, and intended to keep suckas away from the album. Keith has always been into anticommercial maneuvers --recall the subject matter of Dr. Octagynocologist. The "loyalists" leaving 1 and 2 star reviews are --refer to title of review.

1 out of 5 stars Garbage Album.......2006-11-08

Just a quick review to offer my two cents. I loved Dr Ocatagynecoligist (who didn't?) and I'm a fan of most of the rest of Keith's catalog (Diesel Truckers was strange) so I was excited to see a new Doc Oc album. It's F-ing trash. The levels are off and the beats sound like they are off a boy band record. The only track I liked was the one with Princess Superstar, and that's because she's a cute female MC. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but just the same, don't waste your money.

2 out of 5 stars Bad. Don't Buy........2006-10-25

So I bought this album on iTunes, thinking it was legit.... It got two stars, because "Trees" isn't terrible. The rest is garbage.

5 out of 5 stars Sweet beats (it rhymes you see).......2005-08-24

Dan the Automator is a genius. I don't even have the original Dr. Octagon, not that I don't want it. The beats are just too sweet.

I might buy the original Dr. Octagon with MC Paul Barman's album, since they come bundled together. Maybe.

If you like spacey Hip-Hop beats, get this. If you don't like Rap, try this! It's not Rap, its well-crafted Hip-Hop compositions and the love-child of Automator's production genius and Kool Keith's insane influence.

4 out of 5 stars Hah, bet you can't rap over this........2005-03-18

Actually, I would have preferred some of the songs like Blue Flowers and Girl Let Me Touch You to stay the original way they are, which kinda put me alittle down in there.

But, other than that, it's real good and worth to hear if you want some instrumentals. I realize some people actually just wanted the instrumentals, but personally I prefer hearing Kool Keith's lyrics... I just somehow get in the mood to drop them because they were meant to be there, anyways. If you like this sorta thing, recommended you go to Automator's albums or something.

But, Kool Keith has alot more instrumental albums on his own as well if you were satisfied with Blue Flowers or Girl Let Me Touch You, his parts of production.

4 out of 5 stars "Let me show you something.".......2004-09-23

Dr. Octagon: The Instrumentalyst (Octagon Beats) is what the title implies, the instrumental version (the music - beats, samples, and scratches) of the 1996 album Dr. Octagonecologyst. Dr. Octagon is former Ultramagnetic MC's member Kool Keith. The background music is by Dan the Automator (also from Handsome Boy Modeling School) with scratching by DJ Qbert so the wealth of talent on the original recording make it essential. Kool Keith's lyrics and rhyme skills are something to behold. It may well be the strangest of it's kind. So since this instrumental album is basically everything except Kool Keith, there is that element missing. However, this is one case where the music and vocals complement each other. I first heard the album in it's original format with Kool Keith intact and the inventive use of beats and background music was as unique as he was. So when I found that there was also an instrumental version I had to have that as well. Highlights are plenty, but a few personal favorites are "No Awareness", "Blue Flowers", "Technical Difficulties", "A visit to the gynecologist" (although the original is a guilty pleasure), "Girl let me touch you", and of course "Moosebumps" which is a longer version (1:47) of the original album's "I got to tell you" (:48). This one especially works for me because it's a track that I always wanted to last longer with just the music. Bottom line if you liked the original's music or are just a fan of creative trip or hip hop beats, then this won't disappoint. One of the best of it's kind. Dr. Octagon only made one album. I recommend owning both versions.

5 out of 5 stars Keyword: Instrumentalyst.......2003-07-16

It's mostly the same as 'Dr Octagonecologyst' because it IS the same...without about 98% of the lyrics. Hence the name "instrumentalyst" ....and they can't call him Dr Octagonecologyst because Kool Keith plays the role of the Dr. Anyway though...I assume this album was made for those Automator (Dan) fans who can't handle the psychotic yet amazing stylings of Kool Keith. Either album is great though....Dan the Automator is a Complete Genius. Check out Deltron 3030 if you're into Dan and perhaps Del tha Funkee Homosapian...although an instrumental version of that is available too. All 4 (everything that touches Automators hands) is pure GOLD!

5 out of 5 stars Spaceman Cometh.......2003-04-13

Few albums can claim such auspicious genesis: Dan the Automator, making history with futuristic, mind-bending beats, Q-bert scratching himself raw, and Kool Keith reduced to a vague, meandering warble on the few vocal blips that make it through the otherwise undefineable hiphop landscape presented here. Make no mistake, there is nothing, and there will never be nothing, kids, like Instrumentalyst. Without peer, without premise, without imitation. This album will get into your bloodstream. This album will turn you away from all the fakers, the players, the haters, the bitchez and hoze, all those who don't know a goddamn thing about what hip and hop really is. Forward thinking, yes. A dream inside an octagon box of mirrors is more like it. Treat your ears and imagination to this rich, wonderful and most of all SPOOKY album--it has delighted every cool party i have ever thrown, guaranteed, sparked wild, sacreilgious conversation, been worshipped and bowed to, cried over, danced, jumped, shouted to, all manner of twilight behavior, etc... Gentlemen, you have been only fooled by music until you have heard the Instrumentalyst masters. You think your heroes have balls? Eminem, with all his talent, could never have the foresight or guts put out an album like this. Tribe? Crushed by the Instrumentalyst shadow. Find yourself a dark night, some peace, and let this one steep. In. Your. Mind. Oh, and they did this YEARS ago, in the skool they tore down to build the old skool.

Album Description

Armed with the knowledge that he could surpass his former achievements and grow as an artist, Keith went back to the drawing board. The result is DR. OCTAGON PART 2 and it's an impressive testament to the talent of an MC who can more than hold his own against rap's new players. Keith has released an album that is multi-layered, full of richness and texture. Musically, he continually takes chances, meshing smooth rhythms and hyperactive funk.

On DR. OCTAGON PART 2, the many sides of Kool Keith have been amalgamated to reveal the whole being. Or at least, they reveal who Kool Keith is today: a multi-talented MC/producer who seems to have found his sense of being and purpose, a hip-hop powerhouse about to get his due. "With this album, I'm taking rap to a whole new perspective and I'm playing with it," Keith says. "I want to let everyone know what creativity is...."

    Hide your daughters... the Doctor is making house calls. After the groundbreaking success of Dr. Octanonecologyst, Dr. Octagon hid out for years. With The Return of Dr. Octagon, Kool Keith is once again practicing as the twisted, sex-crazed Doctor. Teaming with international production team One Watt Sun, the former M.C. with the seminal Ultramagnetix MC's delivers a sequel many thought would never arrive. Nasty skits and gritty electro-beats compliment the mental rhymes that demand repeated listenings. Special guests DJ Dexter of the Avalanches and Princess Superstar add to the madness. Outta space has cometh. Trees are dying. Gorillas are driving pick-up trucks. And we can tell you no more. You'll have to listen to The Return of Dr. Octagon for yourself

    Undeniably the best album to listen to while defecating in your sister's hair. With Q-bert on the decks and Automator producing--even Gargamel and Azriel purring and rapping over the beats would've been dope. In fact, I read a recipe and the ingredients for Frosted Flakes over the beats and I couldn't believe how fabulous it sounded.

    If you like underground hip hop classics, dope album cover art, sick turntablism, and awesome beats, this album is a must have. I still listen to it regularly and I think I've had this album for about 8 years. Keith's lyrics are ingenious but they will not make sense to someone with a limited understanding of polyfunkoptemetricology. I would buy this just for the cover art. And the plastic CD case is sturdy.

    One of raps all time classics. nothing tops this. keith is so innovative and his lyrics are more creative than 99% of all rappers. this Mandingo reviewer f*%kwit obviously aint a rap fan, becasue if they were they would know what they were talking about. i bet they would call 50 cent ja rule eminem jay z d12 "RAP". dont listen to this f*6kstick because he has no idea what he talking about. this is one of the alltime best rap albums ever. if u dont have it and call yourself a rap fan then your opinion is garbage, fah real.

    2 out of 5 stars What are you all talking about?.......2004-04-28

    I'll give this 2 stars just for the beats.

    As far as being "cutting edge" and "radically new" and whatever other great sounding description these reviewers want to leave, this album is not.

    Elementary school kids could make an album more intelligible than this. If you want to listen to this CD, you're DEFINITELY gonna need to be on something. I can't imagine how one could stand it otherwise.

    5 out of 5 stars Classic Material.......2002-09-02

    One of the most innovate recordings in hip hop history. Dr. Octagons' outer space funk infused hip hop is something so unique I guarantee you'll never hear anything like it again. The Automater's beats are trippy, funky, dark and surreal. Doc Oc's (Kool Keith) lyrics are abstract, funky, and spontaneous. Standout tracks include Technical Difficulties, Blue Flowers(original and remix), Dr. Octagon and No Awareness. The whole disc is tight and flows effortlessly throughout. Word to the wise, approach this disc with an open mind, definately one of my top 10 hip hop cds ever, maybe even top 5.

    5 out of 5 stars yes indeed....very interesting.......2002-04-16
