:: NEW RELEASE INFO. ::

Meat Beat Manifesto :: ..In Dub (:/Run Recordings)
STEREO CD + 5.1 SURROUND SOUND DVD
Release Date: January 27, 2004

San Francisco, CA - On January 27, 2004 Run Recordings, a
division of Lakeshore Records will release Meat Beat
Manifesto's new album entitled ...In Dub. Two discrete
formats will be available: a stereo CD and a 5.1 Surround
Sound DVD complete with visuals, titled ...In Dub 5.1
Surround.

...In Dub is a uniquely different kind of release. Taking
the starting point and cues from several of the songs on
last year's R.U.O.K? album, ... ...In Dub re-imagines them,
often ending up far away from where the original song began.
And in some cases, what has emerged is not even a version of
a song on R.U.O.K.?, but a whole new creation that may just
bear a tiny reminder or stamp of an idea on the last album.
Five songs include the startling one-take toasting talents
of the Bay Area's DJ Collage on the microphone, grounding
this ultra-modern music back into its Jamaican dub roots to
express a special continuum. Though it shares some lineage
and spirit with R.U.O.K.?, it is definitely a whole new
album.

As a producer, Meat Beat Manifesto's Jack Dangers has long
been at the forefront of the digital music revolution,
audibly influencing everything around him and providing the
architectural audio blueprints for contemporary artists as
wide ranging as Nine Inch Nails and the Chemical Brothers.
Now with the use of 5.1 Surround Sound at his fingertips,
Dangers presents a transforming take on the traditional that
allows sounds to bounce between speakers and dance around a
room in a way previously only hypothesized. Meat Beat
Manifesto albums have always been delightfully upfront and
attention grabbing, but ...In Dub 5.1 Surround places the
listener right at the beating heart of the action like never
before. Here is an audio format that does true justice to
the soundclashing sorcery of Meat Beat Manifesto.

and here's the rest..

"To be able to position a sound anywhere between six
speakers is very liberating and inspiring," says Jack
Dangers on the use of the 5.1 Surround Sound format. "I've
got different pieces coming out of each speaker and moving
into the middle and doing weird things. Doing a dub record
with it is unbelievable, it just calls for that. It's always
been trapped in this stereo field and is now unleashed!"

It's long been a favorite device for Meat Beat Manifesto to
revisit and reconstruct sparking ideas into alternate song
versions, the culmination of which is this special project.
For consumers with compatible equipment the DVD launches you
into an immersive experience that explores both technology
and nature as it hops between international locales like
Tokyo, Amsterdam and the home base of San Francisco as
sensuously as it does outer space dreamscapes. Acclaimed
motion-graphics artist and video director Ben Stokes (DJ
Shadow) mans the visual controls, with some valuable input
and footage from Dangers.

The two are regular collaborators, and the duo behind the
critically acclaimed (and DJ's best friend) Tino Corp.
project and label of the same name. They've honed an
effortless synergy of their considerable talents over the
years. Here, the audio and visuals were created
simultaneously - some songs even feature alternating camera
angles and footage - making for intimately connected visual
interpretations of Meat Beat Manifesto.

Dub space transmissions melted
into sonic frequencies of brain waves
intertwined with organic chemicals
dissolving on your television screen
as the electrical pulse gravitate from
left to right.
