Details: Amazon.ca Smith & Mighty have been highly influential in shaping the Bristol breaks sound since the early nineties. Although the trio have only recently tasted international success with their acclaimed Big World, Small World album, their influence on the Bristol scene reached its peak in 1995. It was then that they released their highly regarded debut album Bass Is Maternal. Since its limited release (only 3,000 copies were pressed), the album has garnered a cult reputation for its ground-breaking fusion of traditional Jamaican dub sounds, fierce jungle breaks and typically Bristolian trip-hop beats. Now the album is in the spotlight once again, thanks to a much-heralded re-release. All these years on, Bass Is Maternal still sounds remarkably innovative. Few albums have managed to meld dub and breaks so impressively (even Massive Attack have shied away from embracing drum and bass wholeheartedly). Like Blue Lines or Reprazent's New Forms, Bass Is Maternal is one of those albums that gets better with age.--Matt Anniss Product Description Re-Release of the First Album. Rob Smith & Ray Mighty, the Two Masterminds Behind the Sound-Aesthetic of the Smith & Mighty Sound System Originally Recorded this Collection in 1989 When Drum N Bass was Merely a Seed in the Minds of Its Progenitors.
