KODE-->
A very very long time ago, There used to this emerging form of youth music that energized a generation. Crunc Tesla's Whats Really Rad? LP propels us back to this point of origin. The music, produced by Atlanta-bred Brooklyn transplant Dj Raedawn, is a reunification of todays fractured rap-techno pedigree. Simply put, it is a kinetic energy burst somewhere along the order of Outkast, Squarepusher and The Pharcyde. Acid basslines, gypsy organs, tweaked synths and samples melt onto grimey beats with creamy rapid-fire lyrics that flicker from dark to brilliant. The bipolar fusion of tones melds remnants of middle eastern melodies with dirty south drum kits, dancehall riddims, intensive broken beat editing with even a twist of baroque and crunk bass driven Santeria. What makes it even better is that the vocalists are actually from these areas hailing from Jamaica, Baltimore, D.C., Atlanta and New York. Tes, the Brooklyn-born Lex MC turned french indie-rap icon, delivers the most poppy cut, "Say What You Wanna", while Daddy Foxxy stars on a baltimore club tinged dancehall banger "Voodoo Sound". The cherry on top of this chocolate rap sundae is the melodic genius of M.Sayyid of Airborn Audio and the Antipop Consortium who appears on the afro futurist neo-soul ballad "Lately". Imagine Wu-Tang Clan crashing a nu rave at midnight and you might have some idea how this album is gonna hit the masses. Some journalists might call this record American Grime or something, but honestly, I think this is simply men and women with freedom.
Grandson of an African American Baptist preacher born in Jim Crow Mississippi, Dj Raedawn(aka Crunc Tesla) got the Callin to grace stages at the age of 4 playing the violin {though he prefered Nintendo} . He later moved on to the trombone around age 10 unknowingly following in the footsteps of his great-uncle Mel Wanzo (R.I.P) of the Count Basie Orchestra. He later left his highschool jazz ensemble to fully pursue his lust for djing and electronic composition. Besides being a seasoned DMC vet and mixtape maestro to many, he developed the Turntablist Transcription Methodology with his chums Ethan Imboden and Battlesounds' creator John Carluccio. This unique notation system for electronic/dj music has been developed into software, used in music courses around the world and has been featured by the likes of Time, CNN, Blackbook, XLR8R...yatayatayata. At Skratchcon 2000, Q-bert knighted him with the Dj Q-bert SkratchMaster Award from the Global Skratch foundation. Far from a scratch nerd, Raedawns assaulted stages and dancefloors from the legendary Apollo Theatre to the most dank techno til 10 in the morn coke den party in Berlin. Crunc Tesla has collaborated with artists such as Tv on the Radio, Mos Def, Fat Lip, Antipop Consortium and Angelbert Metoyer. Raedawn, also known as Jordie Laforge, has a number of alias groups as well as being the founder of the dynamic multimedia label called Luv Technologies. In 2009, Ed Banger mogul Busy P appointed Crunc as the USA representative of a 10 country artists United Nations think tank called the Global Fresh Collective. Having opened for a wide spectrum of artists, from Stereolab to Dizzee Rascal to the mythical Red Alert (I wont even mention Dead Prez, a Bright Eyes US trek and playing head to head with Aphex twin at a fest in Den Haag), Raedawn's performances have defied genre and moved generations of audiences. The lovable lionheart ATLien has been hiding out in a post modern post production chamber somewhere in East Williamsburg Brooklyn.

"...so far, it's the novices who are using the system.

1) BAD 2) GOODMORNING 3) ROMAN PIRATES 4) STOP 5) WHEN I GO
Recorded in his own studio based in Rome, after 3 years of hard work and changes, Crazy Glue contains different musical experiences that the artist experimented reaching an original sound after the past releases on labels such Subculture and Urban pressure.
The E.P. is a set of tunes that ranging from jumpup to neurofunk. Much attention is given in the sound and rhythmic arrangements and it is into melodic tracks such as “bad”, “when I go” and “stop” that this collage get maximum pressure into dance floors.
You can for sure find some inspiration from this funny, yet serious, sticky, tricky album, Where we blending past and future into carzy present.
