'Golden Age Against The Machine' is a passion play. A living audio love letter to the golden age of hip-hop. This spans the early 80's to the mid 90's. Shawn takes up the story
"Like many other musicians, sample based production effected me deeply. It permeated the how and what i played. The sonic qualities of my productions, the arrangements and my drumming... hip-hop at its best was raw and unconventional.... there is something magical about grabbing a loop from an old funk record and layering it with some strings from an easy listening record and pitching down a horn stab from a jazz record and a guitar lick from pysch rock record .... and then pinning it down with a fat beat"
Released May 2014
