A series of electro breaks and vocal samples produced by Embed to create concise arguments exploring the hidden agendas of the TRI-LATERAL Corporations, this series of releases will be know as 'Info Breaks'. The first release looks into the idea that the attacks on the WORLD TRADE CENTRE and PENTAGON were carried out by or with the knowledge of the American government. Embed ask : was 9/11 an inside job? Do the 'neo-cons' of the USA have an agenda to ‘take over the world through economic and military power’.?
The production here is extremely well polished which makes me think Embed is an alias for a high profile/established producer. Hard breaks and dark tones set up the vibe as the George Bush samples echo over the top. The vinyl includes an instrumental version of the track which is great in it's own right, but with the use of these samples this is one of the most original and thought provoking records I've ever heard. The music industry has traditionally said that political messages don't work in music, but with the explosion of social networking websites, A&R are loosing there power to hand pick what gets airplay, as people can find the music they want to hear. Embed represent everything that's great about freedon of speech, the use of the internet, and the power of music in it's ability to communicate with all kinds of people. Freedom of speech in it's true form ! Not one for the bbc radio one playlist, this is a record that's will smash up any cool DJ set, and raises some important and powerful questions.
Embed suggest that 9/11 would be the perfect excuse to send an army into the middle east and into any country that doesn’t fit the democratic Tri-lateral plans. The attacks, which were undefended in the most heavily defended airspace in USA, were according to Embed probably planned and carried out with full knowledge and cooperation of Bush, Rumsfeld and Cheyney.
Bush claims its an ‘ Absurd Insinuation’ that he had prior knowledge. However, multiple war game scenarios on 9/11 including defending against plane attacks on the WTC, and new defence directives passed 2 months earlier, meant that in the confusion no orders were issued to stop the planes. The then current secretary of defence Donald Rumsfeld claims he knew nothing about the attacks until the Pentagon was hit 2 hours later.
Embed also raised the question if the towers were pulled by controlled demolition planned in conjunction with the attacks. The charges were probably thermite and enabled the buildings to collapse into their own footprints. Was physical and recorded evidence destroyed?
Hard hitting accusations that are bound to cause a reaction, this is not your average happy go lucky, play it safe song, but it raises questions which need to be addressed. In my opinion everyone should hear this record to make your own conclusion. Combining music and powerful political questions in the way Embed has done here will cause a storm ! Can't wait for Vol 2 !
