Look deeper...<br /><br />Largely recorded live during a two day session in august, Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet, the fourth release from $.99 Dreams, brings together raw drumming, layers of analog synths, and loose horn sections into an instrumental EP which covers ground on the fringes of jazz and hip hop production. This release is available digitally through http://ninetyninecentdreams.com and http://ninetyninecentdreams.bandcamp.com/<br /><br />preview<br />http://ninetyninecentdreams.bandcamp.com/<br />download<br />http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IRNU3MZM<br /><br />about<br />$.99 Dreams was formed in Brooklyn in 2007 by drummer Matt Crane and saxophonist, synth player Adam Diller to develop the area between hip-hop and free-jazz. They build the music from layers of live overdubs using drums, analog synth, horns, strings, and percussion.<br /><br />press<br /><br />"You’re already aware of how much I love $.99 Dreams, with their hybrid of spiritual cosmic jazz, grinding hip-hop beats, and murky analogue electronics. With this release, $.99 Dreams turn up their cosmic oscillators, like a mix of Malcom Catto, Sun Ra and the Silver Apples. “2010” opens with a tribal exotic ambience, before “Meteorite” amazes with its contemporary analogue mayhem, not unlike some of dubstep’s emerging hybrid producers, and some blind siding rolling drums, very reminiscent of Malcom Catto drums, or the psych-funk drum programming of MRR-ADM . . ."<br />--cyclic desfrost<br /><br />". . . Think Sun Ra meets Lord Finesse, with the score of a Kubrick movie thrown in for good measure."<br />--isthmus<br /><br />"Love records like this - $.99 Dreams snuck up out of nowhere, tugged on my ears and made me pay attention with nothing but pure high grade audio . . ."<br />--turntable labninetyninecentdreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16764182674124470313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879849149664932695.post-90958328770113706142010-09-04T15:06:04.399-07:002010-09-04T15:06:04.399-07:00"Building this imagined discography, Madlib h..."Building this imagined discography, Madlib has become a kind of musical Sergio Leone, creating a universe of homage that has taken on a life of its own. Just as Leone’s films are impressively badass even if you don’t realize how they borrow and subvert Western iconography and conventions, music from Yesterdays Universe is great even aside from all this conceptual coolness."<br /><br />That's going to be printed on the back of this album one day.
