Merck is proud to present the debut album from Landau, "Thepicompromise". Clocking in at over an hour in length, it represents six years of labor by a conglomerate of indefinite size. This network, formed by a small core of musical minds, has developed a method of composition by a contingent permutation system. The result is a balance of acoustic intimation and electronic craftsmanship that seamlessly pays proper homage to a chronologically diverse spectrum of musical styles. Landau brings the fruits of hearty negotiation between lush melodies and gritty hip hop beats to this truly "epic" album.
