"Beat under control--a new project led by the Swedish bassplayer Ulf "Rockis" Ivarsson introduces a unique mix of dub, jazz, funk, electronica, roots, rock and global beats.
On the album "The Introduction" Ulf Ivarsson (who has previously toured and recorded with artists such as Thomas Dileva, Sky High and Hedningarna) teams up with Goran Kajfes on trumpet, celloplayer Raymond King, guitarist George Nakas and Per Wiberg on keyboards. These are some of the most interesting players on the contemporary Swedish music scene.
The opening track "Blue Lights" shows some of the many varied influences that forms the basis of "Beat under control". Goran Kajfes plays the majestic theme and improvise together with Per Wiberg over Ulf Ivarssons basslines, that leads us through a musical landscape which incorporates sounds and beats associated with both Miles Davis (Bitches Brew era) and eastern music.
Kajfes appears again on the next track "Sacred" a pulsating piece of ambient electronica. The track also features Raymond Kings electrically fuelled cello harmonies.
"This is beat under control"--the third track--is built around a hard driving beat in the Roni Size school of drum-n-bass. The melody that leaps with the first basstheme is played on a Augustus Pablo-inspired melody and shows Ulf Ivarssons influences from reggae music.
The next title "Direction Dub" goes more in the dub direction. The production of this modern dub track feature a melodic sound and Raymond King playing atmospheric cello parts over the almost minimalist beat anchored by heavy bass. George Nakas adds colour with his whammy bar guitar playing.
Trumpet player Goran Kajfes returns for the fourteen minute long "Speechless ", which mixes modern electronica with both funk (funkadelic meets DJ Shadow) and early underground electronic music (70's Tangerine Dream).
As with all B.U.C. compositions the music is built around the energic and imaginative bass playing,in this case strikingly simple repetitive synth bass lines.
The last track "Saturn Blues" is basically a modern funky blues with a beat. All musicians featured in this line up of Beat under control reappear in this final track.
