Customer Reviews
The amazing Saturn Never Sleeps
“Like Massive Attack… with balls!” – Gal Ofer from Tel Aviv
Saturn Never Sleeps came about when music producer King Britt and singer/artist Rucyl collaborated in 2009 for two improvisational performances specifically dedicated to the music and sound of fellow Philadelphian Sun-Ra. Carrying on in the tradition of Sun Ra’s vision of process as art, they decided to continue their project, which led to a year of amazing opportunities, performing at Moogfest (USA), Stadtmusik Festival (Basel, Switzerland), Art Basel (Miami), Micro-cosmos (Tokyo) and residencies in Philadelphia/NYC.
The duo have been inspired by the works of classic electronic innovators like Herbie Hancock, Raymond Scott, Delia Derbyshire, the present day forward-thinking electronic scene as well as experimental composers, dub and rocksteady. These inspirations have transpired in a solid stage show combining laptop/electronics with heart melting vocals and improvised electronic instrumentation, heavy bass vibrations and sonic ambience.The live two person show consists of King Britt on samples, beats, and textures with Rucyl layering vocals and added electronics. Often both performers vary their live rigs with home-brew music applications and experimental noise makers. Their sound resonates with fans of artists like Massive Attack, Little Dragon, Sun Ra and Philip Glass. Recently opening for TV on the Radio and Sun Ra Arkestra, music collectors and young audiences alike are taking notice of their unique approach to songs.
Yesterday’s Machine, combines an experimental create-in-the-moment vibe with inspirational lyrics and vocal sonics that range from Sade tones to Flora Purim’s ethereal layers. The result is well-crafted, intelligent, genre-pushing, electronic soul rooted in the duo’s collective years of experience and musical expanse.
cool.
if anything this reminds me of Air way more than Massive Attack, i just really dont see the similarities to Massive Attack enough and the vocals are very one dimensional, compared to massive attacks array of collaborations and just amazingly unigue and differently structured vocal tracks for almost every song they make.
i love Sun Ra to death but this is difinetely not blowing massive attack away by any means, no offense to these guys hard work but even massive attacks new album is more interesting than this album.
like i said this is something good to add to the collection but i cant see myself listening to this specefic album for long periods of time or putting even one song on it on repeat for weeks, dont judge either because i am very open minded and even listen to just strictly ambient music at times. so dont think im making judgements on these guys because its so simple, ive heard simpler tracks take me away further than this album has, im just being a honest and tough critic is all.
