With Lost Take, Dosh’s blend of avant jazz and freewheeling rock reaches new heights, inspired by his tireless efforts to generate new approaches to music creation; fascinated by the interface between sequenced and spontaneous music, Dosh has always looked to build bridges between the hip-hop and electro he was interested in as a teenager and the jazz improv he discovered later. Lost Take now reinvents Dosh as the full band he’s always wanted to be; his expertly-arranged keyboard and drum loops are shattered and re-spread over the tracks, creating a miniature opus from the mingling of sequenced backing and live improvisation. Throughout Dosh amazes with his ability to trick the human ear, bringing to mind influences as diverse as Broken Social Scene’s spontaneous fuzz symphonies or Squarepusher’s eccentric glitch jazz, and the result is a satisfying, genuinely original exploration of the relation between sequenced and live music.
