This stripped back, groove laden album provides glimpses of the inner workings of a visionary musical mind.
Created mostly between the hours of midnight and 4 am, Bloodshot started as a beats experiment and grew into a full-blown album. As Undy explains, “I would come home from working at the club and have to unwind. Making beats calmed my mind and purged the creative desires I feel in the wee hours. It developed into this album when collaborations with Inês and Al completed the cycle.”
No stranger to dance music, Undy spent the early 2000’s working in the UK with ‘broken beat’ revolutionaries such as Bugz in the Attic, Kaidi Tatham, Dego McFarlane, Seiji and now L.A. based Mark de Clive-Lowe. He also appeared on numerous white label dance floor vinyl releases and the multi-million selling Verve Remixed series. Undy combines this experience with his deep love of funk, afro-beat, avant-garde jazz and 20th century classical music to create a style of production and composition unique to himself. Undy has performed as a bassist on countless albums and released two albums with his afro-funk-jazz cult band ‘20th Century Dog’.
