Sully has a talent for 2 step programming which I have a real soft spot for: satisfying melodic progressions and insanely tight percussion, shuffling high hats, drums that swing off the beat, and syncopation; plenty of space to shimmy your ass in between where the sounds hit.

These are 3 track previews from the E.P's
There is jungle and hardcore here too in the bass and the rolling snares, clever and economical use of vocals; what to me seems like a fine distillation of the classic noises from these genres into something current and fresh.
I really dig this,especially that last track. Excellent use of the oldschool samples as you say Jimbo, I like the speed it's at, just nice head bobbing groovy speed.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, having gotten the old soulseek hounds on the trail, I've discovered that there is also a very bad 'hard trance' artist called Sully, who has just sullied my speakers in an unforgivable manner. I was even willing to give it a chance until the synths kicked in. Shitting Christ there's some bad music in the world.
