saw this thing at a going out of business local record-shop called "Bollywood Breaks" by Enduser, whose digi-D'n'B I've heard before, and took a chance...
jesus fuck. if there was a hook this shit would not be on it. bollywood vocals and flutes riding dense waves of menacing breaks, somewhere between the post-DB and classic jungle sound. only 6 tracks, with 1 being weak, but the other 5 are all killer.
reminded me of this track by The End which is basically his remix of a Ballinese Gamelan piece, 8 or more minutes long, traversing all kinds of shadowy corridors, patient build-ups, sudden drops, and on-point stop'n'go dynamics - alternating between a-ca-pella ringing Gamelan bells, dark drones, and crisp new-jungle beats.
I guess it's somewhere between mash-up and remix, but this sort of thing is very exciting to me. anyone else feeling it?
and there has to be more in a similar vein, any recommendations?
