Basura was named one of URB’s top 10 dj’s to watch out for in 2001 for his series of IDM mixes tapes which he put out a gaggle of back in the day. But Basura ain’t the only Toofer who knows a thing or three about IDM. I also used to spend the majority of my spare time lurking in the experimental/IDM section of music stores & ran across a few diamonds.
One of my long time faves has to be SF based producer/artist Twerk who not only creates dreamy/creamy landscapes with his music, he also creates software which can help you to procreate your own tunes. A lot of the sounds he uses are gathered using a DAT whilst traveling around the city & later manipulated using custom built equipment & software.
