Looking for an official site that feels like a hyperspace jump, created for a sonic chameleon who freaks foley rooms and musical genres with ease? Hop on Amon Tobin's home page and feed your head.
The Brazilian mind-bender has been busy, and plans to get busier. He's releasing one exclusive track per month for the next six, and selling them strictly through his site. He's putting together the digital release of his Taxidermia soundtrack, as well as ephemera like mixes, ringtones and swag designs. In addition, Tobin is crowdsourcing user-created videos for a forthcoming DVD compilation.
Think you have what it takes to visualize one of the ultimate digital soundtrackers in the game? Roll it!
this audio or video is no longer availableBut his site's true cool lies in its dimensional navigation. Your cursor takes you on a field excursion through space, where you'll run into bizarro life forms like the Cercozoad, Acantharead and more. It's like watching Eraserhead through Alien's eyes. A creepy good time is had by all.
Amon Tobin plays the Treasure Island Music Festival on September 20. Catch him like a virus.
