Deep, Hard Hitting Soul-Jazz Meets Dub Instrumental Analog Grooves
For Your Psyche
In few words, Doctor Bionic can be described as Instrumental b-movie
psych-hop. But that doesn't tell the whole story.
Doctor Bionic is the brainchild of Cincinnati's Jason Grimes, formerly the
producer of the hip-hop group MOOD (with emcees Main Flow & Donte).
Having grown up in the Scribble Jam scene here in Cincy, and running in
circles that included artists like Hi-Tek & Talib Kweli, Grimes' music has
continued to evolve from sample-based loops, to live instrumentation with
deep layering; provided by a revolving door of local musicians. The
common thread in most Doctor Bionic tracks are the neck snapping drum
breaks, but the tempo adjustments and varying instrumentation lends
itself to a collection of non-genre specific songs - held together in unity by
the flawless drums, often provided by Josiah Wolf (of indie-rock band
Why?)
The result of these recording sessions are a masterclass in musical
juxtaposition. Spacious yet clustered. Futuristic nostalgia. Ideal for long
car rides or setting the vibe during a laid back gathering of friends.
