Artist: Farben
Under the name Farben, the prolific Jan Jelinek -- who also operates under his own name and as Gramm -- produces his most ornate, most dub-suffused, and most dancefloor-friendly material. More importantly, his knack for subtle intricacy is arguably at its best when crafted under this guise. Between July of 1998 and April of 2002, six Farben 12"... [+] Read More
Artist: Spectre
An appropriately shadowy entity with several albums for WordSound and production spots for Prince Paul and Techno Animal, Spectre is the Nosferatu of underground horrorcore, channeling the more isolated tones of industrial-dub and illbient into hip-hop productions of an intensely paranoid nature. Inspired by the rich legacy of horror films and... [+] Read More
Artist: Zulutronic
Zulutronic is only one of a dizzying abundant cachet of names used by Cologne-based producer/Pharma label boss Cem Oral, who has also released records as G104, Jammin' Unit, and, together with longtime partner Walker, Air Liquide.

Artist: Paradisio
The wildly joyful Latin dance-pop of Paradisio's "Bailando" was such a massive mixture of watered-down chart tricks that it was easy to lump the song in the same brackets as "Macarena," "Who Let the Dogs Out," "Barbie Girl," and "Mambo #5." Despite the seething Spanish sex of the track's central vocal hook, "Bailando" was actually the product of... [+] Read More

Artist: Techno Animal
Frequent collaborators Kevin Martin and Justin Broadrick (who've worked together on such projects as God and Ice) make up Techno Animal, a beat-oriented ambient group who fuse elements of dub-style production with thick, slightly paranoid melodic themes and heavily treated electronic rhythms. Although both Martin and Broadrick have their fingers... [+] Read More
Artist: M-Base Collective
Although they came out with a CD in 1993 under the title of "M-Base Collective," this particular "band" was always a loose grouping of like-minded musicians intent in finding a new way to improvise. M-Base (which stands for Macro-Basic Array of Structured Extemporizations) utilizes funky (but surprisingly unpredictable) rhythms, unusual interval... [+] Read More
Artist: We
We are one of the more bizarre and eclectic outcroppings of New York City's experimental ambient/dub/hip-hop scene, also the source of such artists as DJ Spooky, Sub Dub, Byzar, Liminal, and Brooklyn's WordSound collective. A trio of performance artists with hands in nearly a dozen different projects, We evolved out of a series of high-concept... [+] Read More
Artist: Joe Lovano
Active during a period of jazz history when it seemed radical innovation was a thing of the past, Joe Lovano nevertheless coalesced various stylistic elements from disparate eras into a personal and forward-seeking style. While not an innovator in a macro sense, Lovano has unquestionably charted his own path. His playing contains not an ounce of... [+] Read More
