Antipop Consortium APC 1996 97 98
- link is alive for only couple days. APC is like a predecessor to SA-RA, in being a Black crew combining glitchy/techiness with hip hop, but is more traditional underground in the experimental, Anticon way (indicative of their time period, pre-”bling”), whereas SA-RA draws from Afu-Ra/Parliament Funkadelic/Sly Stone, hypster fashion, and the hip pop format (post-”bling”).
Daedulus – Retrospective
- LA glitch man. Earlier on was very idm/ambient/electronica, but now has hit the crazy lazers and explosions incarnation of ‘glitch-hop.’ Look for his work as “Adventure Time” though, as that was a VERY well done project.
Deodato (via sanpasquale)
- Deodato is in the same era and musical league as David Axelrod, Joe Bataan, Mizell Brothers, and Giorgio Moroder. Learn.
