Infinite Contact: Chopped & Screwed Free Jazz Drums with Ambience for Your Domepiece

Infinite Contact: Chopped & Screwed Free Jazz Drums with Ambience for Your Domepiece. (Oct 23, 2024)

Hosted by DJ t.h.e.o.2

I took a bunch of free jazz drums from exemplary drummers---like Milford Graves, Andrew Cyrille, Jerome Cooper,  William Hooker, Phillip Spignor, Phil Hey, Phillip Wilson, Harmut Geerken, David and Denis Licht, Leo Smith (not a drummer per se) and others---and subjected the sounds to low-budget time-stretching and pitch-shifting until they sounded messed up and hallucinatory, and layered drones and synth moves from folkways and ocora artists like Craig Kupka and the Harmonic Choir on top...all in a poor taste homage to the late great DJ Screw (RIP).   

ABOUT: Live vinyl and cassette blends to melt the exoskeleton and see through your T2 frame. Broadcasting deep from the quasar mindpiece of DJ t.h.e.o.2 and his top knowledge on the phonograph. Excavating weak genres to reveal the real. All selections shall forever Bump & empirical empires shall forever Fall!

LEGIT BIO: Entrepreneur and carnosaur, DJ t.h.e.o.2 was dubbed the “Prince of Records” in 1976 by Disco King Mario and helped invent the “deadly live wire” scratch technique. During the 80s, after gaining fame throughout, dealt with inner demons. Now, after 20 years out of sight & out of Mind, the Man is back, in Full Force & stronger than Ever! With over 2.6 million records, this Man is still the “Prince of Records!”
