Artist: Mr Bill
Release: Sway
Label: Delicious Music
Duration: 12:24
Genre: Dubstep
Tags: Dubstep/Grime • Glitchy • Heavy
Composer: Bill Day
Released: 2011-10-01
"Mr Bill hits us hard with a new 3 track “electrostep” release on Delicious Music. We’re amped to have Mr Bill working with us on this one and extremely excited to feature Jason Bowld: a world reknowned session/ touring drummer for groups such as Killing Joke and Bullet for my Valentine.People have described the art associated with Mr Bill’s project as a distinct brand of 8bit glitchy funk. An audiological reflection of our world growing ever more mechanistic which seemingly takes sounds and influences from every aspect of life. It’s a representation of the inner workings of the quantum realm when harvested through concentration and intent."

Re: Mr. Bill - Sway (New EP)
this is a bit different from what I expect.
TBH, while it does sound great, it doesen't really feel like the old mr bill stuff with the wonky glitchy swings and stuff. it sounds a bit like everything else in its genre.
for all those jumping on the bro step wagon >>>![Mad :x](./images/smilies/icon_mad.gif)

to elaborate, I feel that on this album, Mr bill has moved away from his original swanky swingy sound, to something that sounds a little bit more mainstream (aka "brostep")
TBH I'm dissapointed because I feel like mr bills earlier albums were moving towards something more original that stands out from the rest.
I feel as if (and I'm certainly guilty of this as well) that there's growing pressure on producers to move towards that sound because that's what popular.
I guess what I'm really getting at, is Mr. Bill is a brilliant producer who I certainly look up to quite a bit, and it would be a shame if he lost his personal flair, and got sucked into the generic sounding pool of the mainstream.
so again, for those who are tempted to fall into the bro step >>>

Re: Mr. Bill - Sway (New EP)
Thanks for elaborating stonee.
Makes sense
I spose it shows that even if you are a great producer with truly original ideas (to some extent anyway) , the temptation to be influenced by the 'main stream' and to sell your craft and keep you in the game with gigs etc, is difficult to avoid.
It is a difficult world to survive in the electronic music game......
BTW stonee, did you hear the 'Tear Drops' cover that Mr Bill did ? What did you think of it?
