Deadverse Massive featuring Dälek, Destructo Swarmbots, Oddateee 12" picture disc additional musicians: James O'Brien - Bass on "Bog" Joshua Booth - additional farfisa on "What I Knew Then" The Deadverse Massive 12" picture disc brings together three intense forces in music-- avant hip-hop unit, Dälek, ambient guitarist, Destructo Swarmbots and hip-hop madman, Oddateee. Spontaneity, open-mindedness to the recording process and a collective cohesiveness sprung forth an album that none of them would have every created alone and none of them would have imagined before the moment of creation. Easily, the strangest record any of these artists have ever touched. Artwork from the amazing Paul Romano rounds out the release. Large images of artwork :: A-side :: B-side "When hip-hop gets weird, it gets "Deadverse Massive". Mescaline dreams from the deep unconscious rise through psych-ambient guitar drones to meet street socially-conscious poetry and spoken-word in a no less than stellar collision... 8/10 " -Foxy Digitalis "A stunning mashup of heavy beatscapes, surrealist avant hip hop, and spacey drones from beyond the wall of sleep... a surreal and drifting collage of beats and psychedelic drones, powerful rhymes and voice transmissions, as informed by classic krautrock and cassette experiments as it is by actual hip hop." -Crucial Blast "This murky midnight groove turns into a swirling morass of disembodied guitars and keyboard chaos, over the top a confusional mix of voices, spoken, sampled, some right up front, some distorted and buried beneath the music, three, maybe four voices, constantly drifting in and out of earshot, eventually fading away, leaving a melancholy, minor key stretch of backwards guitar, looped and dreamlike that unwinds until the disc ends. Really cool stuff. Maybe more for weird music fans than hip hop headz, but either way, would love to hear some of this in some crazy DJ set..." -Aquarius Records www.deadverse.com www.myspace.com/1oddateee www.destructoswarmbots.com
