The album then ends on a positive note with “A Little Love” stating that love conquers all. cards have Lifesteal until the end of the turn. They may come from various sources including Hero Abilities or Enemy attacks. “Black Tears” sees Jermiside and Stik Figa trade experiences about racial challenges and inequalities, while “Bullet shock” deals with police and the use of authority. Status Effects are beneficial or detrimental modifiers that are applied to a target. This starts on the opening track “I Love You, Still?” with Jermiside questioning his love for his home country. Jermiside’s ‘overview effect’ confronts the state of the world we now live in and the struggles we face.
“The feeling was described as ‘the overview effect,’ which is essentially a keen sense of awareness astronauts feel after viewing planet earth from the vantage point of space for the first time.” “I came across a podcast with an astronaut describing his experience in space,” recalls Jermiside. Jermiside’s vivid imagery paints his own picture of a broken world yet one where the power is still in our hands to change it. The Overview Effect is a cognitive change of consciousness, reported by some astronauts and cosmonauts during spaceflight. The carefully crafted collage on the album cover reflects war, greed, injustice, racism, and social ecology. The cost of too much education can be an unwillingness to explore new ideas. The cost of a poor childhood education is a mental barrier. The cost of college is a financial barrier. Such complexity creates barriers that separate people into classes: violating the law of Balance. “I wanted the songs to have multiple layers, different sections, and intriguing arrangements so there’s something new to discover every time,” adds The Expert. The Overview Effect argues that the world education systems are too complex, and too wasteful. 'The Overview Effect' is an album that never overstays its welcome and demands repeated listening. This album was a way of paying tribute to the artists and music Jermiside & The Expert love, but done in their own way. “Key influences include bands like The Zombies, The Beach Boys, The Left Banke, and Love’s 1967 cult classic, 'Forever Changes.'”
“In terms of songwriting, very few songs on this record have a ‘classic song structure’,” says The Expert. Swirling strings, sitars, Moogs and crunchy guitars are all present, accompanied by trippy sound effects. Built with a keen ear for detail, The Expert densely layered his productions with tons of samples, seamlessly weaved together. The production on 'The Overview Effect' takes on late-60s psychedelic folk/rock, viewed through a 90s b-boy mentality of heavy drums and dope breaks. A socially conscious psychedelic hip-hop album inspired by Marvin Gaye’s narrative on ‘What’s Going On’ mixed with tripped-out beats reminiscent of Edan’s ‘Beauty & The Beat.’ 'The Overview Effect' by emcee-producer duo Jermiside & The Expert is a vast musical collage of psychedelic soundscapes merged with hip hop’s golden age.
