Tribute To Brandon Spivey & Richie Anderson


With the tribute mixes, I often deal with music of an extreme and violent nature. But these two artists - Brandon Spivey and Richie Anderson - pushed the envelope even much, much farther. This is some of the most powerful, disturbing, awe-inspiring sonic creations ever made. But these two are not just pure extremists; there is plenty of experimentation, clever sound architecture, and even the rare moment of calmness. The stylistic definition of this output lies somewhere between Hard Acid, Speedcore, and Dada-ist Noize assaults. Spread over many labels and volumes, we have a large body of art here, that needs to be explored. It should also be noted that this is not just l'art pour l'art, but Mr. Spivey is also very outspoken about his political beliefs and this is the background to this music; something that has become a rather rare thing.

So go on this trip - and it is a trip! - in this armed and dangerous sonic terrain.
