If you were born in the 1980′s, you may not remember the band known as Bomb The Bass, the sacred brain trust of revered British musician/producer/DJ Tim Simenon. Bomb The Bass has proven itself a root force in the current climate of music, one which helped usher in the modern era of DJ culture way back in 1987. Bomb The Bass’ seminal acid house track, “Beat Dis”, is an infectious blend of borrowed samples over original bass and drum creations. The success of the song was meteoric by any standard, one which sent young Tim to the top of the UK pop chart, tearing up dancefloors on both sides of the Atlantic as it lead the charge into a new phase of electronic music.
Over the years, Simenon has released only a handful of his own recordings, taking time to start a record label and produce recordings for others, never losing the carte blanche he has established for himself in the industry. With 2008′s Future Chaos, he emulates his own trusted collaborative formula by teaming up with Mark Lanegan, Fujiya & Miyagi, Richard Thair and Jakeone (of Toob) and Paul Conboy. The eminent departures and contrasting soundscapes on Future Chaos are future forward, barely resembling his previous outings, taking his music into stark new directions. These nine songs are both roundly precocious in their adventurousness and markedly mature in their texture. We’re so glad to know he’s still about.
