Bird Sound Power

Beschreibung

If 2016 was the year dancehall truly permeated mainstream pop, then it was prescient for Demdike Stare to tap Jamaican production outfit Equiknoxx for their DDS label, where they showed off the island's most experimental urges. Bird Sound Power is an anthology of sorts, pieced together by Demdike's Sean Canty and Miles Whittaker alongside Jon K from material that dates back as far 2009, but still sounds totally contemporary. The meeting of minds between Gavsborg, a studio veteran, and Time Cow, a young whizz-kid, sits at the center of the album, and while members Bobby Blackbird and Kofi Knoxx make appearances, it's the interplay between youthful innovation and older dancehall expertise that makes these productions so essential."
