TEXTA SOUNDSYSTEM
Plasticman, with the industrial swagger of a Transformer, is engineering a unique artillery, unconsciously joining the dots between Kraftwerk, Front 242, techstep drum'n'bass and the frisky syncopations and swing uk 2step. While not a term usually used to describe post-garage urban minimalism, Plasticman’s sound is phat. Liquid concrete basslines, that make his electro predecessors’ low end sound as thin and
flimsy as chipboard.
check out the compilation “GRIME” on aphex twin´s REPHLEX label :
Grime. Sublow. Dubstep. It's Music. Different people call it different things, depending on when they
discovered it. In the 80's, maybe it was House, Techno and Electro. In the 90's it was UK-G, Drum and Bass, Breaks or whatever. Now there are so many terms for it that the journalists can´t pidgeon-hole it any more. This is a good thing - it's music. Moody music. Multifunctional, multifaceted music created by Humans with Brains, Hearts, Machines & Electricity. Music that´s great for dancing to in clubs, or submerging yourself within your headphones, your car, your home, wherever. It's instrumental dance music, but it's the perfect forum for the best MC's and vocalists.
We at Rephlex call it Grime to publicise to the people at large, outside of the spe******t world of it's producers. The purists might debate the name, but while they do that, crews around the globe are uniting in this strong & fresh dance movement. In this age of Information Technology, people are able to easily find real quality that they actually want, without being spoon-fed compromised product.
Now, it is a time of change and the soundtrack is Grime.
