Matik, “Indigo” from Rhythm Science (2004)

Rhythm Science is a print and audio project by Paul D. Miller aka DJ Spooky that Subliminal kid (as it states right there on the cover), who penned a slim volume, a kind of manifesto/wordscape for electronic music production via #DJ sample culture, and assembled an accompanying CD compilation of tracks full of sounds from the archive of Belgian label #SubRosa that traverses that territory.

The track that first got my attention was a spoken word piece by #PattiSmith over electronic washes of sound. There are also some atmospheric cut-and-paste sample-fests that you’d associate with #DJSpooky. Prominent names such as #BillLaswell and #LeeRenaldo of Sonic Youth appear here, and others I would call ‘genre-famous’ like #Oval and #Seefeel - and a piece by #Debussy with warm crackly vinyl noise, tying it in with the #turntablism theme.

This track by Matik bubbles with suggestions of #dub, feels like #ambient but pulses with rhythm and features repeated melodic phrases, flirts with #ElectronicGlitch but rides on an undercurrent that remains smooth.

This morning's #workout #music is from DJ Krush - the legendary #turntable master and #beat maker from #Japan. Along with #DJSpooky, he helped define the #Illbient genre. Genius.

The prompt is Creation

Axiom Dub: Mysteries of Creation 1996

It must have been pretty soon after I came to appreciate #RootsReggae that I found its deeper, spacier sibling, #dub - hell, just flip the 7” or let the 12” run, and there’s the dub version. THIS was the shit; it still is for me.

I think it was one night while listening to #WZBC, #BostonCollege's radio station, that I got my first taste of this Axiom Dub #compilation.

#BillLaswell, wielder of massively heavy #bass, created the Axiom label for his own projects, but also released work by some other artists of his ilk. What he created with this compilation was my portal to a whole new world of sound.

Familiar names like #SlyAndRobbie and #JahWobble mingled with newer players on the scene #SubDub and #DJSpooky; yes, dub #reggae was here, but also new sounds, like a more #electronic-based #BrokenBeat sound, #ambient's skittery cousin #Illbient.
