Headblock

Two tunes from the very talented BlockHead on NinjaTunes.

Artist: Blockhead
Tune: Carnivores Unite
I was introduced to Blockhead through the amazing tune, Carnivores Unite, a few months back and it is a sweet track. A sweeping song that has a great symphonic intro that leads to an amazing kick drum beat and bassline-this tune grooves and flows it's way effortlessly through almost 5 minutes. Blockhead is a clean producer who clearly understands how to structure his music 'just so'.

Artist: Blockhead
Tune: The Art Of Walking
Album: Downtown Science
Man oh man-what a rocking tune. This has one of the funkiest basslines that I have come across in years...so disco but with a gospel twist. You can't help but move to this one.
This track begins with one of those great pisstakes on a 50's advert on music that introduces us to the various elements that we can expect in the track.....the 'low low bass tones', 'the brilliance of the treble tones' and 'the lifelike presence of the midrange tones'.

Thank you sooooo much. Heard blockhead on some classical channel at night, when jazzmix was played mostly. I was soo sleepy, but liked the tune so much. The carnivores unite is just wow! I've listened to a lot of chill/lounge/lo-fi, but this has got to be one of the best!

May the world be a better place for you ;).
