Joker - Digidesign from Digidesign / You Don't Know What Love Is [Hyperdub, 2009]
Quote:..."Digidesign" as the new Bristol beat: nostalgic, swashbuckling, madcap, almost anti-somber, but still reliant on the brunt of trembling bass and synths. Or we could talk about Hyperdub's knack for keying in on zeitgeist-tilting obscurities, with Joker as a photonegative of the preoccupied, vulnerable Burial. But we'd be obsolete in about five minutes-- this music is exciting because of its rapid mutation. Besides, wondering what "Digidesign" means for dubstep is like wondering what a nuclear bomb means for physics: It seems rather beside the point while it's going off.

Probably as close as I will get to this genre and that's clearly how this album comes across for me. Another group I don't get, but obviously a lot of people do. Formed in L.A. in 1995, this group is topping the charts of late with this 5th album and singles of Boom Boom Pow and I Gotta Feeling. The E.N.D. stands for Energy Never Dies. Hmmmm, just a thought, why not call it The Energy Never Dies. Naw, makes too much sense. The I Gotta Feeling single and the "we are the world/united we stand" track of One Tribe were the best for me, with a lot of 1's.

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Imma Be

Best Track - One Tribe

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh!
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!
Woah-oh-oh-oh-ooooh!
Oh-woah-oh!

One Tri...
One Tri...
One Tribe, one time, one planet, one race
Its all one blood, don't care about your face
The color of your eye or the tone of your skin
Don't care where ya are
Don't care where ya been
Cause where we gonna go
Is where we wanna be
The place where the little language is unity
And the continent is called Pangaea
And the main ideas are connected like a spear
No propaganda, They tried to upper hand us
Cause man I'm loving this peace
Man, man, I'm loving this peace
Man, man, I'm loving this peace
I don't need no leader
That's gonna force feed a
Concept that make me think I need to
Fear my brother and fear my sister
And shoot my neighbor or my big missile
If I had an enemy to [enemy]
If I had an enemy to [enemy]
If I had an enemy, then my enemy is gonna try to come and kill me
Cause I'm his enemy
There's one tribe ya'll

One tribe ya'll
One tribe ya'll
One tribe ya'll
We are one people
Let's cast amnesia, forget about all that evil
Forget about all that evil, that evil that they feed ya
Let's cast amnesia, forget about all that evil
That evil that they feed ya
Remember that we're one people
We are one people
One people, one people [One People]
One people, one people [One People]
One people, one people [One People]

One tribe, one tribe
One tribe, one time, one planet, one [race]
Race, one love, one people, one [and]
Too many things that's causing one [to]
To forget about the main cause
Connecting, uniting
But the evil is seen and alive in us
So our hopes are colliding
And our peace is sinking like Poseidon
But, we know that the one [one]
The evil one is threatened by the sum [sum]
So he'll come and try and separate the sum
But he dumb, he didn't know we had a way to overcome
Rejuvenated by the beating of the drum
Come together by the cycle of the hum
Freedom when all become one [one]
Forever

One tribe ya'll
One tribe ya'll
One tribe ya'll
We are one people
Let's cast amnesia
Forget about all that evil [evil]
Forget about all that evil [evil]
That evil that they feed ya
Let's cast amnesia
Forget about all that evil [evil]
That evil, that they feed ya [feed ya]
Remember that we're one people
We are one people
One people, one people [One People]
One people, one people [One People]
One people, one people [One People]

One love, one blood, one people
One heart, one beat, we equal
Connected like the internet
United that's how we do
Lets break walls, so we see through
Let love and peace lead you
We could overcome the complication cause we need to
Help each other, make these changes
Brother, sister, rearrange this
The way I'm thinking that we can change this bad condition
Wait, use you mind and not your greed
Let's connect and then proceed
This is something I believe
We are one, we're all just people

One tribe ya'll
One tribe ya'll
One tribe ya'll
We are one people
Let's cast amnesia
Forget about all that evil
Forget about all that evil, that evil that they feed ya
Let's cast amnesia
Let's cast amnesia, forget about all that evil
That evil, that they feed ya
We're one tribe ya'll
We people, we people
One tribe ya'll
One people, one people [One People]
One people, one people [One People]
One people, one people [One People]
One people, one people [One People]
One people, one people [One People]
One people, one people [One People]

Lets, lets cast amnesia
Lord help me out
Trying to figure out what its all about [what its all about]
Cause we're one in the same [one in the same]
Same joy, same pain
And I hope that you're there when I need ya
Cause maybe we need amnesia
And I don't wanna sound like a preacher
But we need to be one

One world, one love, one passion
One tribe, one understanding
Cause you and me can become one.

The BEP are a rap group, but on their latest album I think they try out some electro sounds. At least, it sounds that way on the one single I've heard. Pre-Fergie the BEP were decent. I have one of the earlier albums. Then they went Pop in a big (bad) way. No thanks.

If you think that one single (assume you're talking Boom Boom Pow) had some electro sounds, it's nothing compared to some of that other stuff imo.
