Bricolage

Amon Tobin built this 1997 release almost entirely by cutting and reconfiguring jazz double bass lines and drum breaks. The result is a dense, kinetic record that functions as a collage of reassembled musical parts.

Ninja Tune served as the label for this project, which surfaced during the middle of the nineties UK electronic music period. The tracks avoid standard structures in favor of abstract, atmospheric arrangements that expand the possibilities of drum and bass music.
