There are two artists with the name Thunderball: 1) Thunderball draw from their love of the 1960s and early 70s to create multi-faceted soundscapes designed for modern spy chases and late night encounters. Steve Raskin and Sid Barcelona are the agents behind Thunderball. Over the past six years they have been working from their hidden studio, Fort Knox, producing music that stealthily crosses tempos and defies genres. They have released 10 singles and two full-length albums on Thievery Corporation's Eighteenth Street Lounge label. "We are interested in breakbeat in all its forms," says Raskin. "Tempo is just one of the elements that we use to create the right mood for a particular track. By juxtaposing elements of dub, funk, bossa, and soul, we are constantly trying out new and unexpected combinations to blur boundaries and defy music genres." Their vision is fully realized in their latest release Scorpio Rising. From the soulful Heart of the Hustler, to the high noon soundtrack, Angela's Lament, Thunderball demonstrate the depth and breadth of their production skills. 2) A nerdcore rapper who is associated with Scrub Club Records. He has appeared on several Noncents complation albums. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
