Da Mind Of Traxman
Traxman

Planet Mu
Chicago's footwork music, an heir to the city's ghetto house scene, is famously fast, cheap and out of control, with ribald vocal fragments looped over rapid-fire hi-hats and staccato samples. Footwork pioneer Traxman's Da Mind has that frenetic, off-the-cuff quality: "Callin All Freaks" is essentially Miami bass in a rock tumbler. But he also pushes footwork's polyrhythms to dizzy new heights, on the mbira-sampling "Footworkin on Air," and his sonic curiosities take him from circus music to AC/DC to Ofra Haza to Ronnie Laws.
