Tortoise producer/drummer/vibes player John McEntire (formerly of indie heroes Sea & Cake and Slint; also has produced Stereolab, Trans Am) oversees this stripped down album of drum breaks. McEntire teams up with two fellow Tortoise players percussionist Dan Bitney, and drummer/keyboardist/vibes player John Herndon to create 23 instrumental percussion pieces, ranging from straight funk rhythms to Brazilian/Latin flavors to more esoteric fare. Recorded and mixed by McEntire @ Soma E.M.S. in Chicago.
