Darned cockwombles.
I am now totally sold on Miami bass, after belatedly discovering it by following my way back through crunk's family tree. A lot of this stuff stands up really well when compared with the 'mainstream' hip-hop of the time, seemingly occurring contemporaneously in a parallel universe up north and out west. I'd always wondered what became of electro's innovations until Drexciya etc appeared to resurrect them in the '90s, and now I know. By part spooky electro, by part crazy party music, this stuff, well, rocks.
My tunes of choice:
DJ Magic Mike and MC Tomey B - Drop the Bass
Anything by Maggotron (including a crazy cover of Brian Wilson's 'Caroline, No')
Dynamix II - Just give the DJ a Break
and, I've just got hold of a Dynamix ii 'Electro Megamix' full-length that is blowing my mind as we speak.
Some of this stuff reminds me of 'ardkore reflected through a Floridian prism... it has the same 'throw everything together' vitality, absolute disregard for tastefulness, and the pursuit of the ultimate rush-trigger is mirrored in the pursuit of the deepest bass. Anyone else on here bitten by the Miami bass bug?
