Tadd Mullinix has used several pseudonyms to explore a broad range of styles, but he's known most for the artful hip-hop beatdowns he has dealt as Dabrye. One/Three (2001), his concise Ghostly International debut under that name, reached Scott Herren (Prefuse 73), who compared its hybrid of off-center beatmaking and clipped IDM accents to Jay Dee and Autechre, and released the looser and slightly warmer follow-up, Instrmntl (2002), on Eastern Developments. Supplemental releases including "Game Over" (featuring Jay Dee) preceded the darker Two/Three (2006), on which Mullinix was joined by the likes of MF Doom and Guilty Simpson. Collaborative credits, remixes, and another single followed as a wave of beatmakers cited Dabrye as an inspiration. A full return was made with Three/Three (2018). ~ Andy Kellman
