DJ Elephant Power is the perfect anti-perfectionist.
Live as well as in a studio environment he always
performs on the verge of a complete loss of control.
His tracks are anything but tight, yet they groove like hell.
Anyone who has ever had the luck and the pleasure of
witnessing one of his incredible shows will affirm that one
simply has to dance, although it seems almost impossible.
BaudouxÆ sound, his way of arranging and mixing do not
obey the rules of conventional DJing. They are, well,
"radically dynamicö. Together with his brother Laurent,
Nicolas formed the duo "SCRATCH PET LAND". He belongs
to that Belgian posse of artists around the Fan Club Orchestra
and Niko UskΘ.
"SCRATCH THE HULU" is imbued with the absurd humour
which has become one of the main stylistic devices of this posse.
All the tracks on the album are complete and finished, yet it
seems as if Baudoux wants them to retain a sketch-like quality.
"SCRATCH THE HULU" is a treasure trove full of jolty drum
patterns, pumping distorted basses, strangely clanging string
instruments and signal horns (the kind you find on childrenÆsÆ
bicycles). Nothing is in its place, yet everything fits.
DJ Elephant Power creates grooves from tinny sounding
hiphop samples, he coaxes grime from the sound of electric
guitars and from whistles and scratches he produces Hulu.
"SCRATCH THE HULU" is club music which does not belong
in any club. Judged from the point of view of a conventional
DJ, this music is simply a dancefloor sabotage.
But take my word û as soon as you hear DJ Elephant Power,
he will make you want to move.
