DJ Rupture - Matt Shadetek - Solar Life Raft

With the release of Solar Life Raft, DJ Rupture and Matt Shadetek emerge from the shores of Brooklyn bearing gifts from the future. Created by two individuals with a shared appreciation for engaging with streetwise dance music from a ground-up, participatory perspective, as well as more experimental sounds, Solar Life Raft, the duo's first extended project together, is a complete hypnotic and gripping narrative.

Work on Solar Life Raft began with Rupture responding to the recession by staying local and working with nearby friends and collaborators, including Shadetek, who he invited to co-produce the mix CD. They reached out to fellow Brooklynites Gang Gang Dance, Telepathe, and Jahdan Blakkamoore, offering their skills as remixers. To these remixes they added a half-dozen original productions, and a fascinating selection of other tracks. One of Rupture's several collaborations with poet Elizabeth Alexander, who spoke at Obama's Inauguration, finds a place here, as does entrancing multilingual poet Caroline Bergvall. Ghostly voices from classical wunderkind Nico Muhly's 'Mothertongue' flow into an exclusive beat from London's leading female grime producer, Mizz Beats. French musique concrete and avant-garde legend Luc Ferrari rubs up against the latest wave of U.S. dubstep. The inclusion of sounds and artists from outside of electronic dance music move 'Solar Life Raft' into a territory all its own. This is an album with lasting emotional resonance that can still make the car trunks rattle.
