DJ Food One Mans Weird Is Another Mans World EP

djfood DJ Food One Mans Weird Is Another Mans World EP

DJ Food’s newest release One Man’s Weird Is Another Man’s World DJ Food One Mans Weird Is Another Mans World EP (8 years since his last) is nothing short of spectacular. When I first put this on the first thought that came to my head was welcome to the Twilight Zone. “Part of the experience is discovering your self discovery, ” packing a wide array of psychedelic ambiance backed by raw drum beats this 30 minute long EP is still not enough. Luckily this is one of 3 leading up to the album which should keep you preoccupied until then. Highly Recommended

Track Breakdown

The Illectrik Hoax features Nathaniel Pearn aka Natural Self aka one half of The Broken Keys in a role he’s not normally known for – vocalist. Kev approached him after hearing an uncredited vocalist on two Broken Keys tracks which turned out to be Nathaniel’s first forays into singing.

extract from Stolen Moments is the first of several variations on a theme that will run through the forthcoming album of the same name. Co-written with PC and seeing the light of day in remixed form after being shelved at the last minute for the Kaleidoscope album.

All Covered In Darkness Part 1 hosts guest appearances – in sample form – from two artists previously associated with DJ Food. Ken Nordine should need no introduction, he provides the verses whilst the harmonies of The Dragons fill the choruses. The good Dr. Rubberfunk joins in on drums to glue the whole thing together and then freq’s out on Part 2 as things get heavy.

A Trick Of The Ear
A 13 and half minute polyrhythmic percussion epic mixed by ex Tortoise member Bundy K Brown who also provides a remix with an epic title to match. Headphone music based on circular rhythms aimed at the head rather than the feet.

Colours Beyond Colours
Meditations on colours from far out in space, looking back through the Kaleidoscope.
