Odd Nosdam, real name David Madson, visual artist, DJ, record producer and member of the Anticon hip hop collective. Madson has performed in, produced and designed cover art for the alternative hip-hop bands Greenthink, cLOUDDEAD and Reaching Quiet, as well as releasing a variety of solo works, including Burner (2005, Anticon), No More Wig for Ohio (2003, Anticon), Reject Odd Nosdam (2001, self released), and Plan 9, Meat Your Hypnotis… (1999, self released). Nosdam has toured with, remixed, produced, mixed and collaborated with a wide variety of artists including: Boards of Canada, Mike Patton, múm, Jessica Bailiff, Thee More Shallows, Serena-Maneesh, Jel, Why?, Fog, Dosh, Sole, Alias, Hood, Peeping Tom (album)
Most of his early works were released initially only on a limited number of hand-made cassettes and distributed entirely through the internet and tape trading, the cLOUDDEAD s/t LP Plan 9, Meat Your Hypnotis… were created during the winter of 1998 into the spring of 1999 using only a Dr. Sample, a cassette deck, and his “trusty” Tascam 8-Track. The re-release of the 55-track beat tape by Mush kept all of the original clicks, pops, tape noise, and hiss intact. Odd Nosdam’s musical style is heavily influenced by ambient soundscapes, 70’s dub, late 80’s/early 90’s hip hop production as well as indie rock, preferring older musical equipment (Dr. Sample Sp-202, E-MU SP1200), to create a rounded, warm mush of sound fortified with inspired beats.

@DeliciousWax... Flying Saucer Attack is the last tune on Burner. If the 2002 Edinburgh show he is talking about in that interview was Themselves & Alias at The Venue then I was there. There were probably less than 100 people at that show, and apparantly BoC were in the crowd? Damn...

I found the quote: "There were loads of comparisons between your sonic landscapes and theirs when your first album was released. Did you think that it was a fair comparison at the time? Odd Nosdam: Well, none of us heard BOC until after we finished the first record in 2000. Doseone played Music Has The Right To Children for us when he came back to Cincinnati to record The Sound of a Handshake in winter 2000. For the first record, musically, I was inspired by these bands: Hood, Flying Saucer Attack, Stars of the Lid, and Windy & Carl. I was just trying to put beats over SOTL loops. I was listening to FSA constantly till I eventually started to rip it off, but BOC have been a huge inspiration for us since we did start listening to them and especially for myself after meeting them at our 2002 show in Edinburgh." man, he listens to a lot of shoegaze...

What album was that song on? I'd love to hear it. Shoegaze Hip-Hop should be a bigger genre, are there more artists that fit into that label? Dalek certainly does...he is HARSH!

HeadlessClown wrote:
Yeah, He did name a song after Flying Saucer Attack after all and it makes sense that they influenced him. Always thought of Odd Nosdam as "shoegaze hip-hop" and I would also consider cLOUDDEAD and Dälek (especially his new album Gutter Tactics) to be "shoegaze hip-hop".

DeliciousWax wrote:
has anyone heard of Flying Saucer Attack? Odd Nosdam is the Hip-Hop version of them. He sounds EXACTLY like them except Hip-Hop. I remember reading that he is very influenced by them and it's totally true. I don't mean this in a bad way, he's not ripping them off, Odd Nosdam is a creative genius in his own right.
