Yet another Chicago artists with a very unique style of his own, Blackdaylight cooks up a deep dish of trip-hop grooves. Sonically heavy, Black's infusion of gritty vocals and acoustic samples over a sort of 808 purism is cosmic-tribal. It is "deep in the sheets" music - sensual, throbbing and grimy. And while there is certainly a fair amount of "daylight", the larger portion of this album is dark and serious. Imagine yourself standing on a rooftop watching the city burn as tracks like Quicksand bang relentlessly. This is mood music - intoxicating.
The selections on this release are all live versions of the songs. They have a rough and raw quality to them, with some distortion and background static resulting in a very warm and personal sound.
