Up is a later release by Tao Groove. This period of intense attention to bass and beat came after the Unification event at Motor Lounge in Detroit. The event was just prior to the closing of Motor, so they atmosphere was relaxed and destructive. After cranking his booth monitor hotter than normal, the right booth monitor caught fire, and shortly thereafter, the whole right sub stack went out.

The realization that music could start fires sent Tao off in a basshunt direction.

Up is a transitional album, intense jungle drumwork and dustings of electro robotique. Quirked tracks like “happy robot man” and “sloppy feets” turn this entire album into a pretty eclectic blend that sounds more like a Various Artists compilation than a one man show.

FYI: Talks of a video for Happy Robot Man have surfaced.
