MODERN MASTERS — THEO PARRISH
electronic_ music
Seems fitting to be closing the decade with a post on Theo. I can’t think of any other producer whose had such an impact on me or who in my opinion has consistently come up with the goods in the last 10+ years. Like the other dons I’ve looked at in this series I don’t like everything he makes, but guaranteed I’ll love the sheer craftsmanship of his work and the fact he’s coming from such a unique place. If you listen closely to his productions you’ll hear that he’s got every layer in the mix working as hard as he can get it: whether that’s a filter on some hats or an eq’d clap, he’s on top of every detail, shaping and finessing. It’s the same when he plays out, as anyone whose checked him will testify, he’s glued to his dirty old desk constantly working the eq. Then when u bring his countless remixes & edits into account, we truly are looking at a Modern Master, no question.
So the hardest part of this series for me is gonna be which Theo tune to end on. I’ve gone a bit left here with a track whose theme is particularly relevant to me (us) at the moment. Hope u feel it.
Big up the ‘D’. See u in 2010, Quaid.
