Info:

The Fourth Release On Trevor Jacksons Pre- Label Is By Skull. A Visceral Journey Into Experimental Noise And No Wave Avant Grade Beatscapes The Last Skull Release Snapz Appeared On Jacksons Own Output Recordings Label In 1999. A Seminal Collection Of Tracks That Had Previously Featured On The First Two Legendary Mo Wax Headz Compilations (also Featuring Autechre, Beastie Boys, Air, And Dj Shadow) As Well As Tracks That Had Also Appeared On Kevin The Bug Martins Notorious Macro Dub Infection Albums During The Mid 90s. Reactionary Sonic Statements Aimed At The Coffee Table World Of Trip Hop, Fuelled By His Dissatisfaction And Dissillustionment With Hip Hop Of The Time, Trevor Pushed Himself Into Uncomfortable And Far More Extreme Areas Than He Had Before, Areas He Felt Unable To Explore With His Underdog Productions, Which Were Mainly Being Utilised For Major Label Remixes At The Time. Influenced As Much By The Industrial Pioneers, Post Punk And New Wave Of The Past As The Burgeoning Post Rock Scene In The Mid 90s, This New Set Of Previously Unreleased Recordings Originally Produced Between 1996-2000 Are Equally As Intense And Visceral As The Early Releases. Dusty Samples, Raw Beats, Tape Loops, And Primitive Effects Combine To Sound As Relevant Now As When They Were Initially Created.
