rastabomba reviews

Standout track from Timeblind remixed by Kid 606, Kit Clayton, DJ Rupture and Timeblind himself!! 'Most Eye' offers bo' blastin' remixes of 'Rastabomba' the mystical exercise in righteous reggaefied breakbeat-glitch-electronica that kicked off top bloke Chris Sattinger's mighty 'Rugged Redemption' long player. The cut with the unforgettable Jamaican patois vocalisms giving praise to the wonders of 'solar power' and warnings of the evils of globalisation. So kinda hard to imagine this cut being equalled, never mind bettered, I hear you think! Anyhow bring on the remixes, Kid 606 who on 'The Ladies Rmx' rides waves of edgy dub vibration before adding tempered buzzdistorto funk pressure, ragga stylee. Pure. Kit Clayton wrecks with a class r&b glitch stomp, dirty. Chris Timeblind explodes on the 'Pwana Frenzy' mix, the most radically altered re-working so far - stumbling waves of broken frequency pulsations, the vocals taking on an otherworldly righteousness - before hectic drum programming completely throws you off course. Which leaves DJ/Rupture to continue the destruction with female spoken words layered over digital steppa chops with a uber compressed rhythmic torrent. Bruising. CD add's two extra Timeblind versions, one paranoid digital roots pumpa and one that gets downtempo hip hop break heavy with more hefty dancefloor quaking intensions. Purest fire from start to finish. Essential!

    • Speed dating

      Matt Shadetek just wrote up an article for Dubspot where he explains my theory of Speed Dating.  This is where you make lots of quick sketches and then only finish the best ones.  This way you don't get stuck trying to "solve" some problem with a track when the truth is the track's whole energy and fate was determined in the first few minutes. He explains it quite well and talks about how he and Rupture write together. http://dubspot.squarespace.com/blog/2010/3/3/dutty-artz-studio-knowledge-production-speed-dating.html   ...

    • Masinqo Ethiopia Remix for Maga Bo

      I'm working on a remix right now of a track by Maga Bo called Ransom. He recorded this Masinqo player while he was traveling in Ethiopia and wrote a track around it. Now I'm doing a remix for a digital release. The other mix is going to be by Pacheko (Venezuela, whose been sending me some nice dubstep tracks recently that I've been playing out). So today I'm wanting to study up, conceptualize the relationship of the elements and energies. ...

      In case you all hadn't noticed, the world is falling apart. I posted here back on September 11th, 2007 that the finance world was going to fall apart. http://crucial-systems.com/For_those_of_you_that_dont_pay_attention_to_the_world_of_finance The reason I fled New York was that I could see quite clearly that the wheels were going to come off that wagon and the US may very well collapse into chaos.

    • pan-dimensional beings experience things differently

      Wouldn't it be great if there were beings on earth who didn't experience events in the linear sequence of time, but instead experienced events sorted by Relevance. So while we were just enjoying what had happened or what was going to come up... they would be getting more and more excited or increasingly disinterested. Its the biggest human joke that we expect aliens to experience the same time scale as us, or even to experience time. Most people still expect ...

    • exponential growth

      What happens when growth approaches fixed limits and is forced to give way to some form of equilibrium? Are there choices before us that lead to alternative world futures? … Exponential growth does not continue forever. Growth of population and industrialization will stop. If man does not take conscious action to limit population and capital investment, the forces inherent in the natural and social system will rise high enough to limit growth. The question is only a matter of when ...

Solar Life Raft Ingredients

Timeblind
Format: Digital
Release date: 4th January 2010
Available at
  • coltan and cassiterite Timeblind

The unmixed ingredients from Rupture and Shadetek’s Solar Life Raft. Including two tracks by me: Coltan and Cassiterite and Space Cadet (which came out on last year’s 12” on Version)

I’ve been waiting/yearning for Coltan and Cassiterite to come out for much of last year. I was about to release it myself just to relieve my own tension waiting for it. Anyway, its on a good home: The Agriculture and the reviews have been great so far.

The title refers to two of the minerals that are mined in the Democratic Republic of Congo and are components in portable electronics like cel phones. Its one of the unfortunate driving forces behind continuing warfare among the militias in the Rwanda/DRC border area.
