Not really a song about winter only because of the inclusion of the word in the title. Maybe Prefuse 73 put a contact mic on the ground and sampled the sound of snowflakes as the struck the ground. Then he put it all in a sound wave blender and created some new monstrous beast of winter time sound. But I doubt it. He probably got this stuff from hip hop.

I'll say outright -- there's nothing spectacular about the vocal elements of this song. Though they hail from none other than the Wu, Masta Killa and GZA don't fit all that well into this song. That being said, I tend not to be focused on vocals and more on the beat. Prefuse 73 (aka Scott Heren) has to be one of my favorites. One Word Extinguisher was my introductory Prefuse album, and I've never lost touch with it. Similarly, I still listen to tracks from Surrounded b... MORE

Attempted to envoke a visual experience through music, i guess u could say the pink floyd of mixin?? Mabie not though? Spawned from a devotion to pre-fusion jazz circa 1973. A lot of records that he cherished and got inspiration from were recorded between ‘68 and ’73. During that time there seemed to be an extreme amount of exploration and integration of new sounds drawn from electric and foreign instruments into an otherwise traditional format. Hence the music of prefuse... MORE

The first disc is beat-based while the second disc is "a collection of modern classical compositions composed and played by Herren using mostly cello, flute, piano, bass, and clar... MORE

CAN'T. GET. ENOUGH. PREFUSE 73.
Don't know what triggered this lately. Co-worker turned me on to this guy a while back, and while I liked the stuff when I first played it, it's simply lit a fire under my ass this week. Definitely for fans of DJ Shadow, or better yet, most of the 'beat laden' liner music that Adult Swim used to use.

Is the Mog-O-Matic any better yet? I still have it installed, but I shut it off whenever it starts up. I haven't updated in a long time. I'm on a mac. Is it worth downloading a new version to let it track my song-playing, or re-index?

Hello! Yao! One Word Extinguisher is a fun compliation of weird plinking sounds, vocal samples, and a general randomness of noise. I first found out about him after talking to people about RJD2. They said, if you like RJD2, you'll like Prefuse 73. And I do! Well RJD2, I'd say samples much more from hip hop and collaborates with such artists. His sound is altogether different from the Prefuse 73, who seems to use much more of his own music in his mixes. It also ... MORE
