| "13 Faces Of Lightning Head" is the 2008 album from Glyn "Bigga" Bush |
| aka Lightning Head. Internationally known for his work as |
| midi-maestro with Rockers Hi Fi during the 1990s and since the turn |
| of the century with his work on Sonar Kollektiv and Stereo Deluxe as |
| Biggabush and Lightning Head. These days Glyn can be found working in |
| his studio in Dorset and spearheading the versatile percussive-group |
| Magic Drum Orchestra on Tru Thoughts. |
| |
| Originally released on the electronic dub producer's own label Lion |
| Head Recordings, "13 Faces Of Lighting Head" features guest vocals |
| from Earl Zinger (aka Rob Gallagher/The Diabolical Liberties), |
| Candice Cannabis (NYC rapper for Bigmama Industries), the late great |
| Venezuelan dub star Blanquito Man (Up, Bustle & Out/King Chango) and |
| Belfast-based Nigerian MC Lariman (Calibre, Analogue Minefield, |
| Firehouse Skank). |
| |
| Glyn recalls how '13 Faces Of Lightning Head' came into being: "The |
| starting point for this album was a trip to Brighton in the 00s to |
| meet the founder of Soundway Records, Miles Cleret. After a natter in |
| the pub Miles took me to his nearby house to share some of the |
| records he'd discovered on various trips to West Africa. Dusty 7's |
| with amazing grooves, tracks that sounded like they'd been warped |
| through Jamaica or created by hardworking US funk bands of the 70s - |
| each with its own strange twist." |
| |
| Glyn had pen and pad to hand and scribbled down copious notes that |
| became the blueprint for the 13 Faces album. A track by the Nigerian |
| Police Band (The Force 7) with a bassline reminiscent of "Double |
| Barrel", crazy organ and a lopsided groove, inspired "The N.P.G."; |
| the wandering bassline of Don Isaac Ezekiel Combination's "Amalinja", |
| brought about the low-end wobble of "Area Boy". After several hours |
| of intense inspiration Glyn staggered out onto the street, laden with |
| Soundway LPs and ready to begin some serious study of how this |
| little-known music of West Africa was put together. Beats, basslines |
| and guitar parts were laid down in Glyn's bedroom studio. |
| |
| "13 Faces Of Lightning Head" stylistically ranges from straight |
| afro-beat, afro-funk, afro-jazz, with diversions of ethio-funk, dub, |
| rap and what Coldcut's Matt Black describes as "Fela-electronics". 13 |
| different faces of one uncut gem, each with its own way of dazzling, |
| now re-issued on Tru Thoughts. |
