"The Main Ingredient" picks up right where Mecca And The Soul Brother left off, continuing classic back-to-back releases from the duo. Characterized by sultry soul and jazz samples, "The Main Ingredient" saw a more polished sound from Pete & CL, building on the praise they got from All Souled Out & Mecca And The Soul Brother.

Right off the bat In "The House" sets off the album with Pete's trademark hypnotic drums (with a little help from a Q Tip vocal sample) and CL's elegant delivery. As Pete puts it,"We were in a zone, and when you're in a zone, it's fun. It was a great time, and we put the album together with just that in mind. It was like a family thing, and music was a hobby, not a job. We kept it like we were in the basement, creating music just for the fun of it."
