I saw a post which stated that public enemy was the most idm-ish outfit. I find that majorly off-base. During their hey day (88-92), they remained outclassed by a west coast shitnose named Dr. Dre. The backing tracks on 100 Miles and Runnin and She Swallowed It to name a few were much more intense and well thought out. Dr. Dre used very unique samplings of real urban sounds which were tweaked and then added in the track, before and after the vocals were offered. This vs. Terminator X's use of pre-recorded samples already on vinyl and used by other djs in other east coast acts (such as De La Soul.) Too bad Dr. Dre is total f*ckin sell out now... but we always knew that was what he is about... My actual vote for most-idmish hip hop is: 1.) J Saul Cane's early ventures as Depth Charge. No lyrics, no problem. Trippy, droney, ethnic, and sweet beats.

To take it further, the Alexanders Dark Band 2-LP... which is either yet another alias for J. Saul Kane or a collaboration thereof.. but this one is closer to hip-hop tempo than Depth Charges 110BPMish range. Imagine current Depth Charge but darker, more minimal, and sssllloowwweeerr... and tadah, Alexanders Dark Band. ======================================================================= Brian MacDonald <brianm@kuci.org> KUCI 88.9 fM in Irvine, CA -- Orange County ======================================================================= --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
