REJECTED album review by MonkeyBoxing
Never was a tale of more woe than that of DJ Mysterons and the band who didn’t want to know. Alright, it’s not quite Elizabethan levels of tragedy but there’s certainly some common ground. Our tragic hero is, of course, DJ Mysterons – owner of Mind The Wax (a label specialising in hip-hop and downtempo beats whose works have graced the virtual pages of MB from time to time) but also formerly a member of a nu-metal band who shall remain nameless. And knowing the genre as you do, I hear you speculating that his tragic character flaw was being a member of such a band. Incredible as it may seem though, Mysterons’ fatal flaw was not playing in a nu-metal band. His fatal flaw was offering to remix (or perhaps that should be re-wired) the album of a nu-metal band that he played in, in a hip-hop style. And thus he precipitated his fall from grace – or at least his falling out with the band.
