Jack Planck - To Hell With You I'll Make My Own People

Good morning to all. Today I've got a real wildcard for you, you probably have no idea, but this is a real gem.

Jack Planck - To Hell With You I'll Make My Own People

[EDITED] Jeez, I kinda had to change what I wrote about this guy as I read up on him a little more. The lesson I've learned today is question your sources. Turns out Jack Planck is actually Jacknife Lee, producer who's worked with Bloc Party, Editors, U2, Beck, Snow Patrol, The Hives and more. This is his third record but the first one under the Jack Planck moniker.

The music is a lovely mix of semi-trance, low-fi and 8bit, jazzy beats, funk and indie pop with a lot of quirkyness to it. The lyrics are sometimes sung, but mostly features voice samples of people speaking, or just simple and/or made up words like 'hey' or 'chom chom chom' in Chom Chom Generator. Other lyrics include 'The universe is an accident' and 'Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition', not to mention 'So many good drugs are now on the market, it is most important that you take them. And for that reason, this record is being made'. Neat.

We will most definitely hear more of Jack Planck, under various names. I reckon him the same kind of musician as DJ Shadow and Kanye West, skilled producers who over time get more recognition for their own original work. Now do yourself a favour and download this shit.
