CD Review – ‘Bassnectar Transmissions’ by Bassnectar

It’s time for music to reach its maximum potential. The world is progressing at lightning speed and we owe much of that to Bassnectar.

The “Bassnectar Transmissions” free podcast is Bassnectar’s freshest mad creation that exceeds expectations. It’s a musical revolution.

Bassnectar, the brainchild of Lorin Ashton, is a freeform electronic musician from San Francisco who isn’t hindered by genre, style, or demographics. Bassnectar is a boundless place where all sounds, rhythms, cultures, and arts commingle for an experience that Lorin describes as “omnitempo maximalism.”

Lorin takes sound bites from every style of world music and mixes that into his own electronically created, bass-driven songs. This combination creates a powerful artistic expression.
