Not intended to feature the latest music out there, my ‘Pick of the Week’ is to simply share & highlight music I personally enjoy regardless of timeframe. This weeks featured artist is Scorn (Mick Harris), remembered by most as being the former drummer for grindcore legends Napalm Death. Scorn has worked with avant-garde composer John Zorn and prolific producer Bill Laswell and has been remixed by the likes of electronic virtuosos Autechre, experimental industrialists Coil, and Meat Beat Manifesto to name a few. Scorn’s sound was a precursor to dubstep, and for the most part, can best be described as nightmare music- dark atmospheric tones and super low bass frequencies over left field dub/downtempo beats.
