more music to plug: Amon Tobin

[SkeeK]

Here's part 2 of my continuing series. Aren't you all so blessed?

This guy is amazing. Mindblowingly cool. But also very easy to dislike, especially if you're used to conventional music. Definately worth a try.. I think he's some sort of super genius.

Tobin's music is unlike anything you've ever heard. It fuses heavy jazz with super-hi-BPM drum-n-bass. His rhythms draw on bossa nova and samba while he samples creepy string arrangements, standup bass, vicious vibes, spastic horn solos and piano loops, taking "out of control" to the next level.

That covers it pretty well. All you pitchforkmedia fans can read some reviews over on their site.

I personally recommend the albums Permutation and Supermodified. It's hard to pick specific songs.. I guess Nightlife, Sordid, Get Your Snack On, and well all of them.

And this music is worth giving some time if at first it doesn't do it for ya.

Enjoy.

I like "Slowly"

Yeah Slowly is a great number for sure. He's way out there.

Ali, i'm gonna be staying inside for the next couple days just in case.
