Si Begg - Jetlag And Tinnitus Part 3 Digital

DVNT, Aug 26, 2008

Rapid Eye Movement
Haunting synth leads us in, in comes the echoed space kick which continues until finally the beats are broken out. Jazzy broken beat. Glitchy in programming but solid drum sounding off from real drum hits. The signature jacking bass melody is very present. A wicked track, both uplifting and grimey.

16 Lover
Glitch head nodding bass. Vocal snippets and scratches permeate all over the joint. Big booming bass interrupts the party samples. This is huge sounding. Short and to the damn point. Dunked in reggae and with an aftertaste of skank. Reminiscent of Coldcut’s classic More Beats + Pieces.

Revelation Revulsion
Kraut-rock acoustic chords and distortion lead us in. Dirty glitched (how many times can we use that word in a review) bass beats hit and once again Si is on fire with the production. A far left wonk attack.

Sunshine 08
Again. Big sounding. Taking influence from the French Disco Glitch House a’la Ed Banger records and crew, which is currently hot in clubland. Well, Si takes it off at a different tangent and makes it his own. This is firmly in Mr Begg’s dimension of dancefloor.
