A Sufi and a Killer
''A Sufi and a Killer'' is the debut album by Gonjasufi (Sumach Ecks). It was released by Warp on March 8, 2010. The album was produced by Flying Lotus, The Gaslamp Killer, and Mainframe.
Ecks said of the album: "I didn't want it to be too easy for the listener. I wanted it to hurt a little bit. I wanted it to get into a spot in the head that hasn't been hit".〔 Of its title he said "The Sufi side of life has helped me with my killer side so I try not to attach myself to any label. There's a Sufi and a killer in everybody, man, and I'll be whatever I have to be just to make it through".〔Meer, Malik (2010) "(Gonjasufi – the electro Hendrix )", ''The Guardian'', 6 March 2010, retrieved 2010-07-04〕
==Reception==
The album garnered much positive critical coverage on its release. Allmusic's Jason Lymangrover gave the album four stars out of five, describing it as "weird, ‘60s-rooted, psychedelic hip-hop", sounding "like if J. Dilla produced George Clinton after visiting with the Dalai Lama, or if Dan the Automator recorded Cody Chesnutt after the two shared a plate of magic mushrooms", and calling it "truly visionary".〔Lymangrover, Jason (2010) "(''A Sufi and a Killer'' Review )", Allmusic, retrieved 2010-07-04〕 The BBC described it as "a stunning, genre-transcending record" and "a terrific, trippy adventure".〔Parkin, Chris (2010) "(Gonjasufi A Sufi and a Killer Review )", BBC, 9 March 2010, retrieved 2010-07-04〕 Drowned in Sound gave the album 7/10, describing Ecks' voice as "a hugely versatile instrument, every bit as unique and distinctive as that of Björk or Tom Waits", and calling the album "a fascinating glimpse of a character continually in transition".〔Gibb, Tom (2010) "(Gonjasufi A Sufi and a Killer )", Drowned in Sound, 3 March 2010, retrieved 2010-07-04〕 ''The Guardian'' called it "one of the strangest and most eclectic records you'll hear all year",〔 and "an album that practically has a green smog drifting above it".〔Dean, Will (2010) "(Gonjasufi: A Sufi and a Killer )", ''The Guardian'', 4 March 2010, retrieved 2010-07-04〕 ''Clash'' gave it 7/10, stating "repeated plays reveal an irresistible talent".〔Annan, Nick (2010) "(Gonjasufi – A Sufi and a Killer )", ''Clash'', 26 February 2010, retrieved 2010-07-04〕 PopMatters gave it 6/10, with reviewer David Amidon stating "I've listened to this album a lot just trying to make sense of it...and have walked away mostly pleased".〔Amidon, David (2010) "(GonjaSufi: A Sufi and a Killer )", PopMatters, 5 April 2010, retrieved 2010-07-04〕
