I posted another Doctor Rockit track from this record a couple of years ago, but I just re-visited it this past weekend and was still really impressed. You can really hear the start of what would go on to become “glitch-hop” and the like. One thing that I didn’t know until doing more research on Matthew Herbert is that he apparently has a big band and has played at such prestigious jazz festivals as Montreux and North Sea.
