“The Sub Bass Diet showcases my love for 8 bit electronic sounds and digital rhythms. Inspired by dub reggae/dubstep, global street art culture and free form experimental producers like Flying Lotus, The Sub Bass Diet explores the power of drum & bass as the vehicle for transcendence.”

The three Lessondary clansmen perform my favorite Everything’s Good Ugly cut at Brooklyn’s Public Assembly this past weekend.

khal says:

Today, RTD brings you the newest latest from Brooklyn, NY’s own Elucid. This three-track release comes free of charge, and features the Lessondary spitter tackling dubstep tracks from Caspa, N-Type and SuhBurb, executing effortlessly over the sub-low frequencies. If you dug his tracks like “Laser Days” and “My Mayor Is A Billionaire (BBC)”, you should know what time it is with “Bear Trapz.”

Elucid speaks on his Boombaye-directed video:

If I learned one thing from the ‘Automatic Writing’ video experience it would be that there are only two ingredients necessary to accomplish any goal; vision and determination. Somehow the universe throws you in the path of whatever else required for the rest of your journey. This project was a true labor of love and testament to our resourcefulness. What started as late night random idea tossing via instant message (oracles, drapetomania, solar eclipses?!?) quickly morphed into a 4 page video treatment. Shot intermittently during the early months of 2009, without a penny’s investment, Boombaye and I trooped through the streets and subways of New York City in true hip hop/guerrilla style shooting illegally on lo-fi equipment without a proper permit. Five months and a number of sleepless nights later, I’m ecstatic to present this piece to the world. Automatic Writing’s message of self reliance and empowerment resounds even more so with the accompanying imagery.

‘Close your eyes, it feels different here/ Sign of the times, almost in the clear/
I see spaceships on Flatbush, calling me back home/ Resetting the clock to begin again’

Cuing inspiration from my personal musical trinity of Sun Ra, George Clinton, and Afrika Bambaataa, ‘Automatic Writing’ serves as a statement to the building of a new world. A future world. A better world. The idea of midnight trains, chariots, and even spaceships carrying oppressed people away from their suffering are common themes in American Black music. As a people robbed of their past, now living in the present as aliens in a foreign land that constantly seeks to disparage their identity, we have no choice but to embrace the future and the promise it brings.

Some new music from the Lessondary member, produced by Von Martin. Props to khal.
