When he's not busy gigging the world over, penning soundtracks for Japanese TV ads and skillfully reshaping electronic and natural sounds into his own trademark magic, there's nothing James 'Pedro' Rutledge likes better than to share the creation process with his mates and peers alike. That's the thinking behind this. Pull in some favors from like-minded, innovative souls and there you have it - a veritable feast for the ears. In doing so, intricate, beat-laden mixes and vivid, cinematic scope - courtesy of Prefuse 73, Cherrystones, Danger Mouse, Home Skillet, Pedro himself and a 21-minute epic from Four Tet - constitute a milestone event. - DJ |
