OBSERVATIONS & RESEARCH
-------------------------------------------
Megashira-Spindrift-Infracom
German drum n' bass pioneers Kabuki and Mainframe team up with west London's
master nu-jazz producer, Mark De-Clive Lowe, to give us preview from their
highly anticpated full length LP. Gathering a roster of adept studio
musicians, including NYC's Bill Ware III (vibraphonist for Groove
Collective), Megashira picks up the funk driven side of drum n bass where
EZ-Rollers and London Electricity left off. Integrating live intrumentation
with the precision sound quality of current releases, Spindrift sets itself
apart with its attention to detail and the rare interplay between musicians.
On the flip, Germany's highly underated Phoneheads deliver a dark,
introspective remix that rolls out like some of K's (aka Polar) recent cuts.
If this 12" has anything to show for the forthcoming LP, its likely to be a
masterpiece.
