Ras G - Back on the Planet

Review by Marcus J. Moore

It’s tough to distinguish one song from the next, and as a result, Planet feels like a continuous journey through a boundless continuum. This is a soundtrack for space travel.»

Sun Ra once spoke a future where the mere thought of a place would take somebody there. In the past future of today, Ras G explores space and time through his ancient / futuristic music. Dusty, ethereal and bugged out, the Crate Creator's beats bring the past to the future. 'Back On The Planet', G's first Brainfeeder release in years, finds the blunted master of the beat guiding his Afrikan Space Program further out than ever. On this project past experiments in chest-rattling bass, terse loops and bugged-out field noise come full circle. Ancient Afrikan poly-drum rhythms meet outer-synth splashes of white noise and intuitive experimentation meld with deep sub-harmonics for an otherworldly experience.
