Blockhead – The Music Scene
I have to admit something to you right now. I had not been exposed to the work of Blockhead until “The Music Scene” was passed my way. As I sat listening to it, my first thought was “Who is behind this layered madness!?!?” Let me explain…
It’s an ethereal mix of organic layers with solid beats that are ultra-infectious. Almost to the point of being ridiculous. It teeters on the edge of darkness, but then a layer of strings pulls you back towards the light for the ultimate balance of yin and yang.
My favorite tracks on “The Music Scene” are:
The Music Scene
Which One of You Jerks Drank My Arnold Palmer?
The Daily Routine
Cool if you’re into: DJ Krush, Red Snapper or DJ Shadow.
