Toob
23,740 plays (2,941 listeners)
Rich Thair and Jakeone have been producing music together since 2001, forming Toob when Jake was providing an electronic angle to the formidable live sound of Rich’s band Red Snapper.
Toob have always been about combining an epic techno sound with their love of afro-beat, dub and real twisted punk funk. The electronic with the organic. On their latest album “Push Me, Pull You” they take this to a new level - pushing themselves both musically and production-wise. While Rich continues his quest for the perfect live break, Jake found his beaten up old bass, electric guitars… and his voice. In the clubs Jake had been experimenting using his vocals as another texture and a way to make the music a more direct and personal communication. On the record they’ve taken it further - enlisting the help of Alpha’s Wendy Stubbs, her powerful harmonies bringing a new psychedelic gospel dimension to the music.
The album also features a track written with Tim Simenon (Bomb the Bass) - the stealthy, breakbeat meets soundtrack monster ‘Pirate Teeth’. It proved a successful collaboration and Jake and Rich both feature on BTB’s album ‘Future Chaos’.
‘Push Me, Pull You’ has a big sound. On mixing duties, Jake has managed to capture the expanse and energy of the Toob live show and as the album deftly switches styles and tempos throughout, their combined experience as both musicians and producers shines through.
