The Jaunt compilation traverses the sonic terrain from jungle and hip-hop inspirations through to ambient dubs and abstract grooves. Blurring the boundaries between acoustic and electronic, digital and analogue, the album explores the fringes of bass, beat and percussion, bringing together some of Australia’s most well established dub artists alongside cross-field interventions from experimental and analogue sound composers. Originally released in the mid-1990s, Jaunt includes contributions from some of the era’s up-and-coming electronic music artists, including later members of Telemetry Orchestra, B(if)tek and Disco Stu. The album also includes contributions by Canberra hypno-acid maestros Dark Network and Sydney dub stalwarts Atone and Sheriff Lindo.
