Break It Down (Searchl1te Edit)

Music written, recorded, remixed and performed live by Dojo & Ryan Searchl1te for the Chicago Symphony Orchestra's new music series, MusicNow. Composers in Residence Mason Bates & Anna Clyne.

From Resident Advisor ~ "The event will also feature members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.

A special event called Mercury Soul will take place this Friday night at Metro in Chicago.

The event is the second of its kind in Chicago, and has also taken place in Berlin, Miami and San Francisco. It's presented by MusicNOW, a program at the world-renowned Chicago Symphony Orchestra led in part by composer-in-residence Mason Bates, AKA DJ Masonic. In order to "re-imagine the classical music experience for a broad audience in extraordinary spaces," the night will feature a mix of performances from local acoustic instrumentalists (including a grip of CSO members) and electronic acts. Local export Kate Simko will play a live audiovisual set. Searchl1te will play live too, accompanied by an electric violist. As with last year's Mercury Soul event in Chicago, DJ sets will come from Justin Reed (with live trumpet accompaniment) and Striz from the city's illmeasures crew. "

Made this beat when my Dad was dying and I was staying at my mom's to help with his transition. This is the energy that surrounded him in the days before his death.

Dedicated To Pops

“[Searchl1te] ditches the brainless foursquare beats that serve as cha-cha diagrams for the honkiest segment of the club population …His tracks are made of hearty, pulse-pounding stuff: mile-high quantum-overdrive synth pulses, queasy stereo-phase effects from your best panic attack, and sub-sonic free falls that aim to evacuate your bowels.” — Chicago Reader
