Artist: cLOUDDEAD: mp3 download Genre(s): Rap: Hip-Hop Discography: Ten Year: 2004 Tracks: 12 Dead dogs two (remixed by Boards of Canada) CDM Year: 2004 Tracks: 3 cLOUDDEAD Year: 2001 Tracks: 12 Number Four - JimmyBreeze Year: Tracks: 2 Number Five Year: Tracks: 2 The secret cLOUDDEAD combines a trio of immunity rap music artists arranged in the Anticon collective -- Doseone, why?, and Odd Nosdam. Each of them are solo artists and featured artists on loads of subway system recordings, but their music as cLOUDDEAD is quite unlike and different anything you'd expect from a radical of rap connoisseurs -- it's both data-based and ambient, garnering many comparisons to the Residents and Brian Eno's Music for Airports or My Life in the Bush of Ghosts, with chanted vocals that recall Tibetan monks. Instead of committal to writing traditional songs, the band opted for their 2001 self-titled album to be released as a series of 10" singles, comprised of half a dozen tell apart movements. Each release focused on a dissimilar musical base, and included a different closely related edgar Albert Guest artist for each plane section -- Illogic, DJ Signify, Sole, the Wolf Bros, Mr. Dibbs, and the Bay Area Animals. Each of the six-spot singles were meant to be played back to back, to create one single uncut work. Several years of clock time spent on myriad projects preceded the 2004 firing of Ten, which cLOUDDEAD promised would be their last-place. |
