"On
Minesweeper Suite
, DJ Rupture tears some of hiphop's most familiar battle breaks into arguments that reconstruct 'the missing links between dead prez and Middle Eastern dub selector Muslimgauze,' as Vibe described his mission. Mahmoud Fadi, Aphasic, Disc, Cul De Sac, Rotator, Cex, Gregory Whitehead, Kid606, J-Boogie, Dat Politics, Borbetomagusm, DJ Scud, So Takahashi and Donna Summer all find a home in DJ /rupture's realm, where squalls of noise and dub concréte are the sand in his mixer, scouring away the listener's previous associations with music they thought they knew, forcing them to confront cultural differences in a manner that neither essentializes nor orientalizes but honors them within a deeply rooted, humanistic vision.
Minesweeper Suite
extends DJ Rupture's mission of dissolving the boundaries between artistic genres and scenes and the result is post-colonial, post-apocalyptic work that the world needs now more than ever."

Title:
Special Gunpowder
Label:
TIGERBEAT6 RECORDS
Format:
CD
Price:
$15.00
Catalog #:
MEOW 105CD
"After countless compilation appearances, remixes, and DJ mix CDs, it's startling that DJ /Rupture has arrived at his debut album only now. Taken in by raggamuffins, punk technoids, indy hipsters, junglists, peers, and austere critics alike, he is the new face of urban music -- the potent sound of genre-bending and overcrowded city life, a post-cultural broken mirror that mashes hiphop, techno, reggae, Afro-Cuban, spoken word, bohemian rhapsodies, folk music, chansons, breakbeats, avantgarde noise, and jazz through the strainer of a DJ's mentality. With guest appearances by Ghislain Poirier and Kit Clayton, vocals by Sister Nancy (the cut 'Little More Oil' has been licensed to SoulJazz for a 12"), Max Turner (Puppetmastaz), Arnaud Michniak (of French cult experimental rock band Programme), ragga heavyweights Junior Cat, Wayne Lonesome, and Wicked Act, Eugene Robinson (of Bay Area avant-metal group Oxbow), and poet Elizabeth Alexander, Rupture brings together connections only he could have foreseen.
Special Gunpowder
is a major statement from one of the most forward-looking producers and DJs around."

"Strictly limited to 500 copies, this is a non CDR re-release of DJ /Rupture's seminal
Gold Teeth Thief
mix CD, self-released on his own Negrophonic label. Hear what
The Wire
was talking about when it raved 'so fabulous that you need to beg, borrow, re-mortgage, and steal...so you can go to the web site and download it post haste' before naming this CD one of the year's 50 best albums!"
