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.
