Actual Sounds + Voices
Actual Sounds + Voices is the sixth studio album by electronic music group Meat Beat Manifesto, released in 1998. Like its predecessor, Subliminal Sandwich, the album deeply intertwines multiple forms of electronic music with live instruments such as the bass clarinet, saxophone, drums and Fender Rhodes. However, Actual Sounds + Voices is more influenced by jazz,[5] coupled with a darker tone and characterized by persistent erratic breakbeats. "The Thumb" is a lengthy jazz fusion song featuring Bennie Maupin and Patrick Gleeson, both veterans of Herbie Hancock's early 1970s band. Track listing
