Slow Astro is a new mix series by Fracture which revisits the rich Astrophonica back catalogue and presents it in a new light. Starting with Volumes 1 & 2 featuring music from Sully, Client_03, Philip D Kick & DJ Earl.

"I have always been intrigued by playing audio back at different speeds. Be it speeding up breakbeats to make Jungle or slowing down pop music to make drawn out nostalgic atmospheres. Some of my first experiments with pitch were with my brother. We’d record ourselves onto cassette and use the hi speed dubbing feature to change the pitch of our voices. If you held the play button down half way it would cause the tape to play back at different speeds - mangling the audio.
Over the past year I became fascinated with playing on 7 inch records on 33. New rhythms, grooves and textures appear when you change the pitch of audio. It can totally alter the emotional quality of a piece of music you thought you knew so well - creating new artefacts with a familiar yet dreamlike quality. I started to wonder what the Astrophonica catalogue would sound like slowed down. So I made ‘Slow Astro’. Shout out DJ Screw…" - Fracture

rockin' the town like a moldy crouton... flyin' through the air with brace...

oldschool dnb head. Had a radio show on KSCU 103.3 from 97-00. DJ'ed around SF and pretty much lived for tha DnB beats....until I had to keep a real job and pay rent. 

Musically my first love was 80's rap, anything with a nasty 808 beat. I then found funk (thanks to a neighbors 8 track collection that was being thrown out) and was addicted to parliament-funkadelic, mandrill, undisputed truth, etc. In the early 90's, after a random mystery pick purchase of a cassette tape at a local record store, I stumbled across Miami bass (dj magic mike, techmaster PEB)...I had that on repeat until teh early years of the interwebz (mid 90's) delivered  me a clip of an oldschool jungle/DNB mix. It was love at first listen (sight?), and instantly became my passion....and so as it begun, my love affair with syncopated drums and a bassline continues. A happy tale of accidental discovery through exploration...the story of an addict, a beat addict that will never be, nor try to be, rehabilitated.   

bottom line...I love beats, bass and yer moms face.
