Are you pissed off? Bored of prefab pop or indie winging, polite jazzzzzz house or sickly vocal garage?
Do you yearn for something electronic with bite, with balls, with a "f**k-you-I-won't-do-what-you-tell-me" attitude and a half?
Then you need 'Roots, Rock and Ravers.'
Beyond the herd of drum 'n' bass sheep and garage zombies lies a producers that don't care anymore. They don't care if they don't sound like those nice polite records.
Perhaps then, they care more than anyone. They care enough
to push past the boundaries and go where they please, not where they're told.
A place where rave, ragga, jungle and noisecore clash might not have existed before: it does now. I Sound's Transparent is the new sister label of the loud and deadly 7" imprint Full Watts. Those with an ear for the wonderfully dissonant might remember DJ Scud's 'Kill Or Be Killed' for the NY label.
It didn't just rock, it went for the foundations and your eardrums to boot.
It's just like his contribution to this mini lp. 'No Love,' the highlight of 'Roots, Rock and Ravers' combines techno clicks with ragga chants and white noise.
Add a girl crying and you've probably got most people's worst
nightmare. Who cares: progress is painful.
