Description:
An icon and leading force in electronic music and DJ culture is back,
TIM SIMENON aka
BOMB THE BASS presents his new album ‘Future Chaos’. Tickling tweeters and pushing the limits of low-end, the album hovers confidently on the cusp between futurism and vintage, boasting the sort of confident songwriting that's a rarity anywhere, much less in electronic music.
Simenon calls it "electronic music with soul"- but that barely begins to describe it. At once lush and chilly, intimate and alien, "Future Chaos" is a synth-rich album boasting guest vocals from JON SPENCER (JSBX), Mark Lanegan (QOTSA, SCREAMING TREES), DAVID BEST (FUJIYA & MIYAGI), TOOB (RED SNAPPER) and
PAUL CONBOY (A.P.E.). With his first longplayer after 14 years,
Tim Simenon revamps his long-running project to produce a record that's fresher than anyone might have expected from an outfit that got its start in the '80s. An electronic album that isn't bound by any genre and a pop album that's not afraid to stretch out; Future Chaos is here now.
Simenon´s success started in 1987 with the landmark classic "Beat Dis" hitting the UK Top 2. This caused him to evolve quickly from underground DJ to one of the most sought-after musicians and producers. Long before MARK RONSON or TIMBERLAND, he was THE producer, having produced and mixed NENEH CHERRY's "Buffalo Stance", SEAL's "Crazy" and ADAMSKI´s “Killer”. Later projects credited Simenon for production and remixes on acts like DEPECHE MODE, DAVID BOWIE, BJÖRK, MASSIVE ATTACK and countless others.
Future Chaos will be released as a limited LP, as well as strictly limited 2CD, featuring a bonus disc with an additional exclusive track and 7 remixes by the likes of ADAM SKY, VARIOUS, GUI BORRATO and many more.
