th555 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) I see him featured in quite a few drum n bass tracks, but has he made dnb on his own as well? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Zqs-75bOHA[/url] Edited August 29, 2012 by th555 Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide th555's signature Hide all signatures https://www.youtube.com/user/THkaas/videos https://thisjepisje.bandcamp.com/ https://soundcloud.com/th555 Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/75430-does-amon-tobin-make-dnb/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Some of the tracks on his early albums had quite a bit of a dnb/jungly vibe - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVfb-yKhai0 Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide all signatures I haven't eaten a Wagon Wheel since 07/11/07... ilovecubus.co.uk - 25ml of mp3 taken twice daily.

th555 Posted August 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Great, thanks! Let's hope his early records are better than what I've heard of him so far.

xyrofen Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 I don't know if it's actually considered dnb, but I do feel some of his tracks are something similar, albeit maybe more jazzy.

th555 Posted August 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Thanks for the infos, guys. Got some stuff to check out. What's watmm's opinion on mr Tobin (that's his real name isn't it) btw?

th555 Posted August 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Another reason for the soul thing might be the organic and acoustic (if you know what I mean) sounds he makes and uses. I used to really like Foley Room (apt title btw) for that. But now it's more or less gathering dust.

awepittance Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) my opinion on Tobin is that he was excellent when he was still plundering old records and other people's sounds, his new 'foley room' approach feels extremely taxidermic to me, it has almost zero appeal. But i fucking love cujo and pretty much everything before foley, all great music. While i understand an artist who wants to totally 180 or change their approach, to me its just as big of a let down as someone like Luke Vibert who's refined his art over such a long period of time abandon his approach and using all his own sounds recorded in an overly high quality fashion. I just dont think i would like it as much as old luke vibert Edited August 29, 2012 by Awepittance Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide awepittance's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/75430-does-amon-tobin-make-dnb/#findComment-1870515 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud capture Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 all his early stuff is classic, and heavily influenced by dnb/jungle. I would agree Cujo is more triphop.

Boxus Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) i fucking love amon tobin. supermodified is his best imo, it's funky as hell with a nice dark atmosphere. it has maybe less of a d'n'b sound than permutation, but the influence is definitely there. one of my all-time favorites for sure. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pcWeF0-zZw as for his new stuff i like foley room a lot, and i don't really like ISAM.
