Vendredi 5 septembre 2008.
Kevin Joseph Sawka aka KJ SAWKA...
BIO: Man…or machine? That’s the question that listeners, show-goers, critics, and colleagues have been asking about Kevin Sawka since the Seattle drummer started experimenting with drum ‘n bass styles in the late ‘90s in the band Siamese. The upcoming release of Cyclonic Steel,
produced under the name KJ Sawka, again demonstrates the superhuman quality of his playing and
production.
Cyclonic Steel is a study in what electronic music has the potential to be, particularly with Sawka’s vast background in electronica, his desire to push those realms
forward, and also his adeptness with acoustic sounds, jazz, and rock techniques.
Seattle writer James Kirchmer exclaimed that Sawka "attacked his kit with a frenetic precision so impressive I speculated that he'd once been replaced by a drum machine, and had spent all the years
since working out an elaborate revenge." Sawka’s music isn’t you typical drum n bass affair. Instead, the listener is presented with a sweaty, rhythmic journey while meshing elements first presented in the late 90s as the “Music of the Millennium” (see: Chemical Brothers, Prodigy). It’s a record
that gives off one vibe listening to it in your car or home, but is a totally different monster in
the club...
Kevin Sawka didn’t invent the drum kit. He didn’t invent jungle beats, and he didn’t invent drum ‘n bass. But by pairing these elements with his innovative approach to creating and performing, he just might be inventing something newer, more intricate, and downright eyeopening...
