Yahoo! Music Album Review

 

DJ Me DJ You - DJ Me DJ You 'Rainbows and Robots' (Emperor Norton)

(Thursday January 18, 2001 11:08 AM )

Released on 18/01/2001
Label:

Briming with tracks, all psychedelically sampled up to the Hilt of Haight Ashbury, the cover alone makes this worth a double take. Colonel Perv fondles an Egyptian lovely, an original '70s man' straddles a horse and an awesome moustache protrudes from a chakra happy Indian guru.

This LA based label presents the pop culture garbage scouring obsessions of Ross Harris and Craig Borrell-artists who dabble in all of Hollywood's creative pies.

They've remixed the likes of Beth Orton, Beck and Takako Minekawa. At core it's a lo-fi hip-hop, Atari driven selection of sounds, combined with the odd acid house sample groove and sprinkled with spoken word spliced from B-movies, ads and the like.

Tracks like 'Nine Volt' are faster Latin based numbers, but there's also more eclectic home-listening tracks like 'Pink Freud'. Unusual, re-search recycled-type post-modernism.
