A Guy Called Gerald, aka Gerald Simpson, is a name that was vaguely familiar to me when I started this project. His remix work for The Stone Roses, Can and DJ Spooky were the only tracks I knew him from. As I thought about it more, I acknowledged that these three mixes were very good, and I should probably put more effort into his wider discography. I've still not dove into his albums or original work, and am open to suggestions from other fans. For his remix work, I did have several other of these tracks in my collection. Diverse and solid work across the board here. Ambient to drum and bass to dub to straight-forward electronica. Loved this image, as it reminds me of vintage photos of Lee Perry, King Tubby and Scientist.
