Fueled by an addiction to the early ninja tune catalog the production style of Blunt Instrument began as sample based instrumental hip hop, drawing inspiration from pioneers like DJ Food and the ubiquitous DJ Shadow, along with artists from the classic mid 90’s era of rap like A Tribe Called Quest, Nas, Jungle Brothers and so many others.

Like any good addiction, a desire for more has pushed Blunt Instrument forward in new directions, searching the most innovative production techniques, the freshest beats, the most unique sounds and the heaviest bass – Amon Tobin, Tipper, Bassnectar and a sound called glitch-hop was their new destination of choice.
