IDM drum and bass says hi to hardcore experimental punk rock and then meets up with modern jazz where they all drink modelo and talk about their feelings.
"Book Of The Sick" is a drastic departure from my first album "Currents." While my first album focused on fusing live elements with electronics, the new album is focused on the creation of aural spaces. Harsh, aggressive textures are combined with experimental jungle beats, tribal, down-tempo, and extended techniques on the flute. It is available through OXO-Unlimited and my website by clicking the link above.

This 4 part suite is a mix of drum and bass, prog rock, and ambient jazz soundscapes. ALL OF THE INSTRUMENTS YOU HEAR WERE PERFORMED BY ME.

ALTERNATE BIO:
Justin Deming was born in Davis, California, but grew up on a farm in the former Zaire. Exposed to the lowing of cattle from an early age, he gravitated to the coke bottle as his primary means of artistic expression. He quickly progressed to dizzying heights of technical virtuosity and interpretive insight, such that on his 18th birthday he was presented with a Heineken bottle and a plane ticket to Los Angeles where he was to attend USC to study west african drumming and extended techniques on the suspended cymbal. As fate would have it, he became enmeshed in the late seventies punk rock scene in Los Angeles and missed his orientation. Appearing on stage in diapers and a black leather mask, he became for many the avatar of a post-structuralist apocalyptic ethos which was just then reaching its apex. Succumbing to the stresses of his new found iconic status, he fled to Madagascar carrying nothing but the complete writings of Arnold Toynbee and a package of twizzlers. He soon became embroiled in the illicit mica schist trade that was then flourishing, despite the strongly worded disapprobation issued by the Vatican, and found himself catapulted to the front lines of geological controversy. In a rare appearance on “The Mike Douglas Show,” Justin offered this enigmatic observation: “It would seem as if the shepherd has lost his flock, where in reality all that has happened is the chickens have left the nest they never had in the first place.” Justin was elected Prime Minister of New Zealand in 1986, narrowly edging out his less experienced rival, Barry Goodhew, and served two successive terms. He died on March 21, 1864 in Montgomery, Alabama, the casualty of a Union offensive led by General Grant.
i most definitely would love to do some drum and bass stuff! It's just a matter of when we're in the same region. I'm in the airport right now on my way back home to santa cruz for the holidays. Are you living in LA? i love you tracks, really cool stuff you're doing.
Hey! This is not how dnb usually sounds, at least the kind I listen to. The way you do it has a more of a acoustic and sometimes organic feel, which is a great variation after hearing the same breaks and the same synths over and over. Especially the jazzy feel that comes from it.
I don't know if you've heard about Lukas Nystranc, aka Mortimer Twang. He was (and is) an Amiga musician, and much of his music has got a down-tempo, jazzy feeling. It's not for everyone, but based on the music you do I think you'll like it.
