Resident Advisor Podcast: ASC


Absolutely one of the best mixes I've heard in awhile. Unreleased goodies abound on this assured encapsulation of the Autonomic sound. Divide by two. It seems so simple in retrospect. But what the producers centered around the "Autonomic" sound— Instra:mental, dBridge and ASC chief among them — devoted themselves to a few years ago has caused an enormous stir in the drum & bass community. It has also reenergized the aforementioned artists, resulting in some of the most indelible work of their (already) lengthy careers spent at 170 BPM. None more so than ASC (AKA James Clements), whose recent album Nothing Is Certain was termed "mature club music of the highest caliber" by RA's Max Bacharach. A distinct break from his more traditional drum & bass of the early '00s, Clements' recent work has shown him embracing a whole new world of possibility. With his RA podcast, he showcases a peek into the future of the Autonomic sound.
