Title Description:
Deep Waters Still Run begins with my two favorites from the EP, Serranito and Halfstep. Serranito is included also on the full length Nettle CD, Build a Fort Set That On Fire (named after a Basquiat painting). Industrial bass pulses leave space for raga music that evolves into North African vocal sounds that are quickly manipulated, merged with the noise going on underneath. Halfstep develops with a similar industrial groove adding tabla drumming to the mix.
Side B of the EP is equally pleasing. Favorites include the records most fragmented, noisy track, The Ballad of Jimmy Hollin - Disco Mix. This track has no breaks; it develops over noisy bleeps and ends with a neat Method Man sample. Duppy, the last of the 6 tracks, is one of the noisiest, quickly speeding up into a mechanical crescendo of caterwauling breaks.
If you've not heard Nettle, you need to. At least check out one of DJ/Rupture's mix discs for a sampling of what Nettle has in store for the globe. The Agriculture has just released the full length Nettle disc called Build a Fort, Set That on Fire, and the group has another EP, Bin Scrape Laden, out on Soot. Do yourself a favor and look out for this stuff.
