Along with his exclusive "monthly joints," Brazilian DJ/musician Amon Tobin has been pretty generous to fans. Yesterday, he posted a live recreation of last year's Foley Room LP for free via his website. Here's what he had to say about it:
"It's about the sound and the shared experience of being immersed in waves of bass while dissonant collections of rhythm and melody move, confuse, annoy you a bit then move you again. A passionate affair, this recording is an attempt to capture not just the music but the atmosphere of the show as a whole."
"Recorded by Studio Brussels at the world famous AB theatre in Belgium - which arguably has the best sound system in Europe. After months of back and forth and despite everyone's best efforts, the mix was in danger of being edited into the ground to accommodate big labels and publishers. Rather than release a compromised version commercially, the decision was made to give it away for free instead. You can download the mix as it was intended to be heard, along with the full digital booklet, at www.amontobin.com "
