Gemmy’s Myspace features a YouTube clip of the introduction to the Back to the Future II Nintendo game. For this, he is the darkhorse of the bass brigade. While gawky geeky American twenty-somethings re-construct childhood via cassette noise tapes and Dan Deacon’s artery-clogging electronic twaddle, Gemmy, straight out of Bristol, takes two-step, Dre’s hydraulic funk, and 8-Bit’s right angles, and crams it into a blender with blades as sharp as Sonic the Hedgehog’s hair. This is nostalgia not for the sake of self-congratulatory winking remembrance, but to channel a child’s notion of infinity. Like all visionary music, Gemmy’s sounds limitless, both futuristic and familiar, the sort of thing that seems like a logical conclusion but one that you never could’ve predicted. He remembered the rules of “Regulate”–the rhythm is the bass (though it remains uncertain how the bass can be the treble.) Maybe he just needs to grow a beard and wear spectacles.
