As soon as I’d heard Ben Neill had sorted himself out with an album of his twisted dubstep-jazz schmooze I was on it like an instant!
Whilst appealing to those who favour the deeper more experimental end of the dubstep spectrum, the Mutantrumpet master himself keeps things fresh with his brand of dub-jazz-step or whatever you’d like to brand it.
If you can imagine scenes from a sleazy flim-noir strip-joint scene amped up on electronics fizzing with tension, yet smooth enough to drink straight, you’d be getting close to Mr Neill’s subtle, yet powerful production work and musicianship.
If you pick up any album this month (after my own that is!) then let it be Night Science by Ben Neill. Highly recommended.
As far as I’m aware, Night Science is available now. Go find it!
