Pole's music IS dub.
Whether he's aware of the rhetoric or not.
I saw him live (great by the way)
In a concrete room in Williamsburg.
He stood behind a giant mixing desk (48 channels).
He had a sampler, a laptop & some basic FX.
Each sound of each tune went through it's own channel.
For performance activities, he fucked w/the EQ, panning,
and aux sends, bringing in delays, feedback, reverbs
(it was rumoured that he had actually brought a plate w/him,
although they're kind of big & I couldn't spot one) and whatnot.
Closest thing to Osbourne/Scientist/Scratch/etc... imaginable.
And he did it live, efectively putting a performance face on an otherwise
studio craft.
Can't imagine he does it much differently at home. -Våt.
