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
