Guest jsd Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Chocolate and peanut butter. Beer and pretzels. Subways and creepy smelling weird old guys. Some things are just meant to go together. To this list of classic pairings, you can now add Meat Beat Manifesto and Bass Kittens, for lo, the men behind these two legendary outfits of breaks and bass (and whose initials coincidentally - OR IS IT?! - are both J.D.) have teamed up to provide what is unquestionably going to be the most glorious assault on your eardrums since B met ASS. Jack Dangers of Meat Beat Manifesto needs no introduction. He practically invented modern breakbeat music. His collection of vintage analog synthesizers and vocoders provides the foundation for the JD's sound. Jon Drukman of Bass Kittens is the digital to Dangers' analog. He brings his own electro-tinged philosophy to the proceedings. There is only one school on Planet JDs: the school of blowing your mind with sound. Step inside and get educated.

sidewinder Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 This sounds cool, thanks for the tip. Any info on this anywhere else? CD release eventually maybe? Not seeing this listed on Amazon, even in their MP3 store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would just like to know if I a CD is planned or if it'll only be digital. I'm not Jack, sorry... I'm Jon, the other JD. Jack says hello, though! We're not planning on a CD or vinyl release at the moment, but I never say never... Addictech sells lossless so you can buy that and burn your own CD. It would be the same as an official release, soundwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Cool thanks for the response, and hello other JD. I was more concerned with being able to add to my physical CD collection, not so much the quality (that I care for also, of course). I'll get the MP3s from Addictech, then.

Guest jsd Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 If there were a tour associated with this, I'd go mad. Jack came to the Grand Emporium here in Kansas City back in 2005 and it was a revelation. Old and new alike--there were people who pulled out their old KMFDM and Nitzer Ebb shirts, the live drummer on the trigger pads, the visuals, the goddamned unrelenting bass ( ), and the awesome idea of a bendable, fish-eyed CCTV camera on Jack-behind-the-Mac for when he would rap the classics off of "Satyricon". Maybe it was a bit embarrassing, as a man in his 30's, to get sloppy drunk and rap every lyric at the top of my lungs back at Jack but...maybe I just don't give a fuck because it was awesome! Oh my brothers, I'm so glad I caught that. Touring is naturally a bitch but...let's just say that this is my plea to The JD's for loading up a van with just two Macs and a Funktion One rig with a 400,000,000 Jigawatt amp to come blow minds across America. Jeeez, when you put it like that, it sounds awesome! I wish I had the time and money to do this. Maybe if we strike it rich... BTW - love your sig, I was in the same boat in '87 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jsd Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 In case anybody was put off by buying from a fairly obscure San Francisco-based storefront, we have now made the album available on iTunes, Amazon, Beatport, and loads more. If your favorite shop doesn't have it, let me know and I'll see what I can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
