It's difficult to avoid Bassnectar's own self-definition, which appears
somewhere in all the press materials for the San Francisco-based outfit:
"A free-form project that merges music, art, new media, social
involvement, and community values; dedicated to a constantly evolving
ethos of collaborative creation, self reinvention, and boundary-pushing
experimentation." Or, to put it more succinctly, Bassnectar is a
breakbeat-oriented electronic dance music act with a fine line in public
relations and a sponsorship deal with Red Bull. On record, Bassnectar
is DJ, producer, and remixer
Lorin Ashton (aka
Lorin Bassnectar)
with occasional guest performers, but live Bassnectar shows are
freewheeling affairs with close to two-dozen people on-stage, from
instrumentalists, DJs, and rappers to graffiti and video artists.
Ashton
began working as a DJ and remixer under the Bassnectar name in the late
'90s, developing the live experience under heavy influence from the
multimedia Burning Man Festival that takes place each summer in the
California desert. Bassnectar debuted on vinyl with the 2002 single
"Float," followed by 2004's "Creation Lullaby" and a downtempo album,
Tempo Rosso, that was released as a promo item for Red Bull. The first proper full-length Bassnectar album,
Mesmerizing the Ultra, was released in 2005, followed by
Underground Communication in 2007.
