ANTONIONIAN
Antonionian is California's Jordan Dalrymple -- drumcrusher, beatslayer, multi-instrumentalist and erstwhile keeper of the Subtle sound. As one of that cult-hallowed sextet’s chief producers (along with Adam “Doseone” Drucker and Jeffrey “Jel” Logan), Jordan had a heavy hand in crafting those inimitable electro rap-gone-Kraut scores. But with Antonionian, the longtime sideman who also plays with French pop act General Elektriks and experimental supergroup 13 & God, steps out from behind the curtain to carve out his very own post-everything avant-funk.
Jordan’s is a propulsive and dreamlike sound that finds him bending voice, electronics and various acoustics to his unique ends -- something that nods to the dark art-rock of London archetypes This Heat, “Paisley Park”-era Prince and contemporaries TV On the Radio, albeit channeled through one man. Antonionian is a result of a compact musical lineage. Jordan’s mother was a singer, his father a classical percussionist, and their son was sitting behind a kit by the age of 3. By high school, he was versed in piano and theory and had begun teaching himself guitar and practicing drums five hours a day. His dad had to soundproof the garage.
In 1996, Jordan followed his band Conglomerate from San Diego to Berkeley. Dax Pierson was a member too, and a record store job or two later, they formed Subtle in Jordan’s Oakland flat. There, above a Chinese restaurant, the group recorded its first four EPs with Jordan in the role of Can’s Holger Czukay, engineering and editing the experiment. He also toured with cLOUDDEAD and an early version of WHY?, Reaching Quiet.  In 2004, Subtle released its debut LP, A New White. On the band’s first tour, their van rolled and Dax was paralyzed from the neck down.
That moment proved both devastating and edifying. Like his colleagues, Jordan doubled down on music, and the results were two more increasingly imaginative Subtle albums -- 2006’s For Hero: For Fool and 2008’s ExitingARM -- as well as countless hours on the road before they disbanded in ’09. Since, Jordan’s been hitting skins and buttons for General Elektriks (Honeycut and Blackalicious collaborator Hervé Salters), fine-tuning the long-awaited second album from 13 & God (the Notwist + Themselves), and crafting his solo debut as Antonionian, a name aptly inspired by the hypnagogic works of filmmaker Michelangelo Antonioni.

With his debut solo album, Subtle’s Jordan Dalrymple marches into the unknown following the dissolution of his groundbreaking band. Luckily, the unknown was that group’s terra firma, and he’s perfectly at home in the wilds he pioneers as Antonionian. Taking a cue from his project’s namesake -- modernist Italian filmmaker Michelangelo Antonioni -- Jordan reveals a world of dreamlike detachment and depth, colored by spare dialog and impressionistic imagery, over a score that ranges from propulsive lo-bit hip-hop to three-dimensional avant-funk.

The original line-up of Fred Durst, Wes Borland, Sam Rivers, John Otto, and DJ Lethal are back from an eight year hiatus to bring their world back to ours. Fred Durst and Wes Borland said in a joint statement:

"We decided we were more disgusted and bored with the state of heavy popular music than we were with each other. Regardless of where our separate paths have taken us, we recognize there is a powerful and unique energy with this particular group of people we have not found anywhere else. This is why Limp Bizkit is back."

The guys will kick off a world tour in the Spring on the overseas festival circuit with headline shows sprinkled in throughout Eastern Europe and Europe, selected dates include, in late May, Russia, Ukraine, and the Baltic countries where Limp Bizkit has never played before despite huge demand, along with major festivals like Rock Am Ring and Rock Im Park in Germany, more dates to be announced shortly. A new album, which would be the original group’s first full-length effort since 2000, is also planned. Limp Bizkit’s first three albums have sold over 20 million copies in the U.S. alone, and another 13 million in the rest of the world.

Instrumental hip-hop from Minsk/Belarus. Heavily influenced by classic 90s hip-hop.

Setup: Maschine MK3, Komplete Kontrol M32, Roland SP-404 mk2, Numark Pt01 Scratch,
