494A Mick Harris' Projects mix 1


This is my selection covering the breadth and depth of Mick Harris' musical career.  I can't think of any other musician that has such variety in styles.  Starting more or less as the blast beat drummer from Napalm Death, and then covering everything from techno, drum and bass, dub step (years before it became a thing), avant garde, ambient, and drones.  Seriously, this is all over the place between these two mixes.  I did include Scorn four times in total, as I wanted to represent the evolution of their sound.  Yes Nick Bullen leaving the group dramatically changed the sound, and Mick Harris kept it going and evolving to the wonderful beast it is today.  The rest of these tracks represent his aliases, though some are full fledged musical projects involving others.  Each one certainly has its own distinct sound and vibe.  Incredible to think these are all from the same creative mind.

The projects of his that I didn't include are listed here; mostly omitted due to very long track lengths.
