Tortoise 'Taut & Tame (Luke Vibert Remix)' (Thrill Jockey, 1998)
Intriguing battle between languid postrocking and rubbery drum and bass. Music is the winner.
Tortoise's poised, evolving postrock of 'The Taut And The Tame' is teased into a laid back piece of jazz and bass by former Mo'Wax face Luke Vibert.
It opens with frantic, pattering drums that set a pace that the bass completely undermines. It's slow, thoughtful and very spare, allowing trademark vibes to enter and resonate before Vibert brings the beat back. This time it's a trademark, mid-paced, piece of big-box-little-box-bubblecar-fish drum'n'bass rhythmic delight. And we're steppin' like it's 1999.
Originally released on 12", it was collected onto the 'Remixed' album but both are now out of print.
