Rave circuit veteran Radio Bomb has found his vocal match in american MC Jamalski.
Prime Numbers is the result of this sonic bras de fer, where Radio Bomb’s fiery brokenbeats and experimental approach to hip hop clashes with Jamalski’s tough rhyming and word-shooting in pure Master of Ceremony tradition.
Radio Bomb started to mix in the early nineties on UK pirate radios and at raves, occasionally along Spiral Tribe or Bedlam. After Tatcher’s 1992 Act killed the party, he soon found himself in exile playing his wide ranging sets of drum’n bass, hardtek, dub or breakbeat all over France and Eastern Europe.
A successful producer aka Voodoo Mix (40000 copies sold), Radio Bomb has done remix work for Lofofora, Sayag Jazz Machine, Burning Heads, High Tone, Crystal Distortion. He is also the man behind the machines in Cube, a trio featuring drummer Philippe Garcia (Eric Trufhaz, Cosmic Connection) and flutist/saxophonist D’Ostance.
Jamalski was discovered on the New York scene by KRS One, and was soon to join mythical hip-hop/ragga band Boogie Down Production. Moving around, he could be found on the emergent San Francisco jungle scene, at house club nights in New York, or atomizing dancefloors in London.
An eclectic artist, he has collaborated with Fatboy Slim, Deee Lite, Brand New Heavies, Aphrodite, Bobby Konders, and more recently with Volta & FX909 and Interlope. Jamalski is now based in Paris, sampling the active drum’n bass and hip-hop scenes, collaborating with the likes of Dee Nasty and Big Red, and working on his next LP, a follow up to the brilliant Roughneck Reality (Columbia, 1993).
These guys had to meet. |
