Method of Defiance: Inamorata

dark, hypnotic recording with historic musicans
vs. cutting edge drum & bass artists from the
U.K., Europe and the U.S. The drum breaks were
collected raw and guided to be heavyweight/
down to earth, unmixed, and played over to
musicans who added virtuosic instrumentation
"live on the spot" in interaction with the dynamics
of the breakbeats. It was later arranged, produced,
and mastered in NYC.
