Series 7 is a project on the UK-based label Bella Union, formed byformer Cocteau Twins Robin Guthrie and Simon Raymonde. Over sevenreleases, seven artists will take seven days to record seven songs. TheMeat Beat Manifesto founder/front-man's contribution is probably theclosest he has ever come to the Meat Beat sound while recording as JackDangers. While it's hypnotic and infectious and a much anticipatedsound, it's not, however, a Meat Beat record. The beats are here,Jack's production has without a doubt presented for our listeningpleasure that signature sound fans all know and love, but there'ssomething just not quite there. It could be the absence of sung orvocally sampling tracks, strong lead instruments, or heavy tune riffs.This isn't a bad thing, however, as it seems to be that the goals ofthis series is to harness what these few musicians are able to come upwith in a short time without countless chances to change, modify,retouch, etc... It's enough to wet my personal appetite for now whilewe wait patiently for the next big MBM offering.
