Synopsis

Album Description

Howyoudoin" by the late great RSW represents everything that was right about early 90's electronica. Strictly formulaic & predictable genres hadn't quite taken hold yet, and rampant experimentation was the norm among these newfangled electronic artists. RSW was one of the most difficult to pin down, as they dabbled in big beat, rap, trance, dub and house, often with an underlying punk rock aesthetic. Mute. 2001.

""Howyoudoin" by the late great RSW represents everything that was right about early 90's electronica. Strictly formulaic & predictable genres hadn't quite taken hold yet, and rampant experimentation was the norm amongst these newfangled electronic artists. RSW was one of the most difficult to pin down, as they dabbled in big beat, rap, trance, dub and house, often with an underlying punk rock aesthetic. They had a lot of ideas and knew how to turn them into catchy-as-hell tunes.

I consider "Howyoudoin'" to be their best work, as it incorporates so many styles seamlessly into one cohesive album. It's alternatively funky, dubby, frequently tongue-in-cheek, and the beats kick serious ass. It was released in 1994, but it sounds fresh. Highly recommended."

The Roots of Garage and Electroclash grow here

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This album, released in 1994, is a great place to begin to assemble the pieces of today's garage movement in the UK, probably one of the greates bands no one has ever heard of, Renegade Soundwave made 10 brilliant songs on this album, the only reason it only gets 4 stars is because it's a little outdatted. The best songs on the album are Renegade Soundwave, Blast 'Em out, and Funky Dropout. This is cool cd to sneak out on ususpecting partiers, and kick it old school."
