In the fall of 2003, warning signals were coming from Kingston Jamaica… warnings of a musical, dancehall movement calling for new experimentation. Mr. Anonymous, who was at the time on hiatus in the United States quickly descended on the aforementioned locale to investigate.
Armed with an Acoustic Guitar, “Echo Box”, and Megaphone, base for the mission was quickly set up at Kingston’s famed Liguanea Club where, Ian Flemming’s classic James Bond adventure ”Dr. No” was filmed.
Contact was made with several key informants including Sly& Robbie, Bounty killer, Cutty Ranks, and Barrington Levy, as well as several underground agents including Brando and Dr. Innocent. After making contact, studios were secured and the mission commenced… The meeting of ”Guitar Driven Psychadelia” with “Dancehall Machine Gun Fire” was born!!!
The parameters for the mission were as follows… All instruments including live drums, bass, moog, electric and acoustic guitars, synthesizers, percussion, and megaphone were to be performed by Mr. Anonymous….Informant vocal performances all Ad Lib… No rehearsing or prewriting of lyrics… The essence of each session was to capture freeform raw energy and spontanaeity… most all performances were delivered freestyle…. thus the “Blueprint” for the Mr. Anonymous phenomenon and the debut album simply entitled “Mr. Anonymous”.
Four years later, after a brief imprisonment with an enemy organization(counterintelligence record label), Mr. Anonymous is back with “Mr. Anonymous 2″. For this mission, boundaries were pushed to “the extreme” into the “Dub” world and new contacts were made with key liasons in London England as well as Kingston Jamaica. Agents including Ranking Roger and Dave Wakeling of The English Beat organization as well as Pinchers and Mega Banton(both in Kingston) and an agent from the West Coast of Africa were a handful of informers deployed. The parameters for all the performances were again works of Raw Energy and Pure Improv. Like the title of a song, from Senegal to Jupiter (by way of Kingston and London), the sound is a meeting of Dancehall Machine-Gunfire, Dub, Electro, Robotic, and Guitar Psychadelia.
The future holds no boundaries for the man with the mission… Mr. Anonymous is unstoppable!!!
