Sub Freq FREQ007 - Prism "Two hearts / A new life for Lily"
Posted: Wed Sep 26, 2012 3:53 am
Prism studied drums under Vance Gordan specializing in Afro Cuban rhythms and the Moeller technique prior to venturing into music production. After becoming more intrigued by the intricate likeness of all societies, cultures and religions, Prism was created with a deeper purpose. Not only to showcase these influences but to convey an awareness that all things no matter how different they may appear in physical form, are all the same.
Having an ear for deep jazzy tunes and being hugely influenced by the early Metalheadz era, Prism continues this sound in his selection of music playing vinyl and unreleased dubs from all around the world. Always in tune with the roots of what started both Dubstep and Drum and Bass, Prism’s selection rarely strays away from raw, emotional bass music but contains something for everyone which will insure a good time for all who catches one of his sets.
MIXMAG REVIEW
DJ Chef and Bluesy’s Sub Freq doesn’t release very often but when it does... BOOM. Every release is different but each packs a devastating emotional punch – and ‘Two Hearts’ is no exception. Pushing along on a steady stepper’s beat, its oceanic pads, subs and vocal snippets resemble Detroit techno at its lushest, or d’n’b circa the ecstatic high points of ‘Atlantis’ and ‘Renegade Snares’ – but that dub rhythm and the ricocheting 808 snares are pure 21st century. The more spacious, Blade Runner-ish flip ‘A New Life for Lily’ aint too shabby either!
RATING : 9/10
