Breaks

Existential Funk

The original epic that started it all.

Existential Funk was what came out when I stopped second-guessing myself.

2008 was a year when I couldn’t stop writing. I kept starting tracks in one genre and finishing them in another - minimal techno that wanted to be drum and bass, trip-hop that demanded breakbeat treatment, house tracks that went trance halfway through.

Most producers would call this unfocused. I called it honest.

The album title came later, but it fits perfectly. This was music about being caught between states - between genres, between moods, between who you were and who you’re becoming. The “funk” isn’t just the groove; it’s that unsettled feeling when you can’t quite pin down what you’re hearing, or feeling, or becoming.

“The disc has enough thumping bass and spacy synthesizer chords to please any trip-hop head.”

life.remixed is sort of a spiritual sequel to Existential Funk. This is the only other LP release I ever did; the ideas here are as big as the sound. All the tracks had a lot of production put into them, and cover a lot of ground. In a lot of ways this is a more mature album than Existential Funk

Some of the standout tracks on here are “Rasta Breakfast”, some roots-dubstep with deep bass and classic reggae vibes; “Reconsitution” which skips the “step” and keeps the dub; switching gears and achieving some range, “Climbing to the Top” is one of my favorite hard dance releases ever.
