| From Pitchfork: "While Uproot feels every bit as purposeful as those earlier mixes, it achieves that goal though different means. Musically, it's far more subdued and spacious; the lacerating swathes of digital noise have been subbed out for tracks that favor lonely, clattering rhythms, yawning sub-basslines, and displaced vocals. Like a lot of his contemporaries, Rupture has clearly gravitated towards dubstep over the past few years, and Uproot shows his selection skills in that space are as impeccable as they are elsewhere. From the cavernous glissandos in Frescoe's "Afghanistan" to the twerky, demodulated keys in Filastine's "Hungry Ghost (Instrumental)" to the haunted illbient fog of Moving Ninja's "Uranium", Clayton's selections are generous and far-reaching, and build a pretty compelling case for dubstep as the most creatively robust genre in electronic music right now." |

DJ /Rupture. I do. so I'm kind of biased (I freakin' pre-ordered it for chrissakes). have you heard/bought/tried to copy a friend's copy of any of his last mixes? yeah? then you'll definitely like this one. he dials back the aggro/digital hardcore beats and makes one that you go back to immediately as opposed to putting it on when you're trying to clear your head. if you've done that with his past mixes, you might have very well already bought this one. there's no real way I can go into specifics here without giving away the good surprises - you're going to have to trust me on this one.
he gives kickass recommendations for music as well - this one I bought on his recommendation, Analog Africa 3 or something, ranks up there with the Orchestra Baobab CDs I have.
the Pitchfork review pretty much nailed it as well - I can't think of too many DJs with his scope of knowledge either. there's one part that I'm not sure if he wanted to make it sound like it was going to side 2 or not, but his methods of sonic disruption seem to have evolved as well.
now that Diplo is using /Rupture's older tricks, it's reassuring to see that there's more up his sleeve. on the off chance that Jace himself is reading this, thank you for doing what you're doing. |

Here's the review from 365 MAg: "Turntablist, musician and producer DJ Rupture is set to release a new mix album Uproot in October. Famously performing live sets with three turntables, with acapellas breaks and noise on each separate one. His latest offering is his first release in seven years having recently returned to his hometown Brooklyn after as many years living in Spain.
This new mix album finds Rupture in fine form, seamlessly combining elements of Dubstep, Dancehall, Berlin Abstraction and Crunk. It builds upon the fast and dense music of previous works such as Gold Teeth and Minesweeper Suite, but with more contemplation and a reflection generated..
Uproot sees Rupture working with a host of DJs from all around the world. Which include Australian Dead Leaf, British Dubstep DJ Shackleton and Germans Ekkehard Ehlers to name but a few.
It is definitely his most gripping and listenable album to date and Rupture commissioned a string quartet for this latest outing. It has clear influences from seventies Jamaican dub and combines these elements, especially within the bass-lines, with warm ambiance and smooth Turntablism." |
