Reverse Engineering is back with a new ambitious CD, 4 years after they released their first album “Duck & Cover”. “Highly Complex Machinery” will be out on Jan 25th 2010 on French label Jarring Effects (High Tone, Ez3kiel, Brain Damage….). The album will have 12 great tracks – including American MC’s Blu RUM 13 (One Self) & M.Sayyid (Antipop Consortium), singer Jasmine and female croatian rapper Diyala’s featuring.
Notably influenced by the electronic scene, RE explores the dark sides of instrumental hip hop and mainly focus on heavy and aggressive rhythms that build up the backbone of their pieces.
Born in 2002 under the hand of producers David Pieffet & Alain Decrevel, the project is from its beginning completely turned towards the live-act. DJ G-Bart joined the duo later and provides a significant addition to the live shows with his very own turntablism style.
With the experience acquired during numerous live appearances and the massive positive feedbacks they received under their belt, RE decided to start working on a studio release. In parallel, they provided themselves with new tools to refine their compositions and start exploring new grounds, collaborating with singers, MC’s and even rock bands.
Reverse Engineering performed more than 80 live shows between 2003 and 2006, including support act of prestigious artists issued from labels such as Ninja Tune, Warp, Mo Wax, Jarring Effects or !K7 (DJ Vadim, Amon Tobin, DJ Krush, Airborn Audio, Cinematic Orchestra, Luke Vibert, Mira Calix, Unkle, High Tone, Ez3kiel, Mike Ladd, techno animal, blockhead, sixtoo, Kid 606…).
The visual aspect has also its importance in Reverse Engineering’s concept. Their live shows includes video projections of science fiction or sword movies which transcribe their sound universe on the projector screen.
