In
few
words,
Doctor
Bionic
can
be
described
as
Instrumental
b-movie
psych-hop.
But
that
doesn't
tell
the
whole
story.
Doctor
Bionic
is
the
brainchild
of
Cincinnati's
Jason
Grimes,
formerly
the
producer
of
the
hip-hop
group
MOOD
(with
emcees
Main
Flow
&
Donte).
Having
grown
up
in
the
Scribble
Jam
scene
here
in
Cincy,
and
running
in
circles
that
included
artists
like
Hi-Tek
&
Talib
Kweli,
Grimes'
music
has
continued
to
evolve
from
sample-based
loops,
to
live
instrumentation
with
deep
layering;
provided
by
a
revolving
door
of
local
musicians.
The
common
thread
in
most
Doctor
Bionic
tracks
are
the
neck
snapping
drum
breaks,
but
the
tempo
adjustments
and
varying
instrumentation
lends
itself
to
a
collection
of
non-genre
specific
songs
-
held
together
in
unity
by
the
flawless
drums,
often
provided
by
Josiah
Wolf
(of
indie-rock
band
Why?).
The
result
of
these
recording
sessions
are
a
masterclass
in
musical
juxtaposition.
Spacious
yet
clustered.
Futuristic
nostalgia.
Ideal
for
long
car
rides
or
setting
the
vibe
during
a
laid
back
gathering
of
friends.
