[10.01.2009]Bassnectar – Cozza Frenzy + Fever Ray Remix + Tour Dates
Author: jsully
So, to be honest, I have hesitated about posting this for a little while now. I’m a huge Bassnectar fan, but mainly the older stuff he did before ‘Underground Communication‘. That album threw me off, (except ‘Verbing the Noun‘, that track was sick.) and I was about to say to hell with it. I read post about his new album “Cozza Frenzy” that is about to get released, and I saw he was coming to Miami for a show, so naturally, I said “Hey let me see what this cat is up to.” I’m glad I did, since I gripped the Fever Ray remix he did, and you can get it too at the bottom of this page. I would, since listening to it once got me back into a Bassnectar frenzy all by itself. You can also listen to the title track from his new album below.
Bassnectar is a freeform electronic music and social experimentation project based in San Francisco, California. Primarily a music project of Lorin Ashton, Bassnectar is also accompanied by various collaborators. Ashton describes Bassnectar’s sound as “omni-tempo maximalism,” by which he means combining beats and basslines with music of any or all speeds, time signatures, rhythms, and sound source. The sound gravitates toward heavy tempos, playing with double time and half time, and using electronic methods to embellish and reinforce other styles of music.
