He's regularly approached by major record labels to comment on their latest releases. Read his views on one local CD... Mash Badley are an experimental electronica duo comprising of Charlie Thorley and Craig Wood. Their weird and wonderful way could be considered, quite rightly, as dance, ambient, alternative and almost any other digitally frameworked variation within the theme based generally on zeroes and ones.
Mash Badley call on their combined, varied and vast experience from within the musical world, both as musicians and in their professional workplaces and/or leisure activities to invent and hone their pulsating rhythmic interludes. What they create is both adventurous and intriguing; suited equally well to the specialist DJs, the electro-dancefloor or even the microchip-head stay-at-home lounge-lizard. Music for the waves, music for the feet, music for the head, but no matter which environment it's experienced in, it's music aimed at the soul. Mash Badley are blatantly electronica but they defy sub-classification - theirs is pure multi-facetted electro - take it in whatever form it's found, take it wherever it's found, take it in it's entirety, take it as a gift from the digital age. This pretty varied three track demo exposes the length and breadth of the Mash Badley sonic wave - from the Jean Michel Jarre-esque trance-inducing industrial electro of 'More On One', through the pulsatingly rhythmic bleeps, blips, squeaks and echoes of 'Irie Bell' with its nursery-rhyme-esque vocalisation, right through to the annoyingly catchy drum and bass backdrop of 'Big Up The Duff' - there's a whole load of ground covered. Mash Badley seal their work with expert mixing and squeaky-clean production which only adds to the electrical-mystique of the whole Mash Badley experience. Like it or not, electronically generated music is here for the long haul, it isn't gonna go away any time soon.听But, so long as collaborations such as Mash Badley continue to dip their musical toes into the unpredictable heavy-water of the silicon age, there's always going to be scope for experimentation both within sub-genre constraints and outside their furthest boundaries - and that's cool! Is it music, is it art, is it just repetitious noise? Yes, yes, no! Mash Badley syncopate through silicon and as long as they continue to use their knowledge, their flair and their artistry to mix it up, cross-over and defy genre convention they're perfectly welcome to carry on with more of the same. This Mash Badley demo is a good, widely appealing slice of experimental electronica for many tastes and many minds - cool, modernistic and futuristic!
