Joker

The Vision


Joker has long held a place in the hearts of those who fancy themselves fans of dubstep. I don’t mean people who occasionally party to Datsik and Excision, though they too have their merits — I mean people who really want to get down to dark, heavy bass. Joker’s music carries a sense of legitimacy, but it’s still as danceable as it gets, and it’s accessible while maintaining a degree of subtlety.
His album, The Vision, out on 4AD (the label that Zomby also recently signed to) on November 8, is a really perfect showcase of what Joker does. While I used to point anyone looking to newly discover Joker to his mix for Mary Anne Hobbs‘ former BBC Radio 1 Experimental show, his album is now just as appropriate and impressive a primer (and one that’s probably easier to track down).
