skylab is the combined efforts of u.k. dj/experimentalist mat
ducasse, producer howie "b." bernstein, and japanese major force
recording artists tosh and kudo, aka love tko. beginning as a post
office project between ducasse and bernstein (with ducasse
shipping tape after weirded-out tape of obscure samples and
tape-loop experiments to the intrepid bjork/u2 producer), skylab
become one of the more celebrated of the crossover
trip-hop/ambient breakbeat set. wedding ducasse's affectation for
'60s experimental jazz, funk, and soul with bernstein's penchant
for making connections and tosh and kudo's tight, solid hip-hop
moorings, the group generated much of the raw material for their
l'attitude debut and subsequent ep in the studio (as opposed to
the sampler). fifth member debbie sanders' interesting, often
wordless vocal contributions added novelty and texture. although
all the members released solo material outside of the group,
skylab's shifty, off-beat flavor remained a unique collaborative
product.
