The Original Doctor Shade.

Get the Tempo of the tracks from The Original Doctor Shade (2003) by Ed Rush & Optical. This album has an average beat per minute of 168 BPM (slowest/fastest tempos: 128/174 BPM). See its BPM profile at the bottom of the page.

The Original Doctor Shade. By: Ed Rush & Optical (2003, Electronic). 3. Bullit (Instrumental).

This, the third album from Ed Rush and Optical after the seminal "Wormhole" and "The Creeps", is much more experimental than either of the two previous albums. Perhaps not as unified in vibe as either of the them, "Dr Shade" still benefits from some interesting departures from the normal neuro-tech of early Virus. Get Ill" is my favourite, with vocals from Ryme Tyme and some great scratching from Scratch Perverts it makes for a storming intro tune

For me 'Why?' is outstanding track out of this LP. 'Get Ill' feels like a less dark/minimal rework of 'Bacteria'. The other tracks defiantly have a funkier upgrade from the older E&O sound. 4/5

This, the third album from Ed Rush and Optical after the seminal "Wormhole" and "The Creeps", is much more experimental than either of the two previous albums. Perhaps not as unified in vibe as either of the them, "Dr Shade" still benefits from some interesting departures from the normal neuro-tech of early Virus. "Get Ill" is my favourite, with vocals from Ryme Tyme and some great scratching from Scratch Perverts it makes for a storming intro tune. Other tracks, like "Puerto Rico", "Why", and "Heads Will Roll" approach a more commercial sound than is usual for the Virus label. Still, those wanting teeth-grinding dancefloor smashers can look to "Hammerhead" and "Hacksaw" for business as usual. Due to the distinct lack of ultra-dark material, I'm not sure this album had nearly the same impact as "Wormhole", but at the time there were so many other producers aping that style it was good to see Ed Rush and Optical moving in a different direction.

What can be said about these two music masters that has not been said already? Well in the case of this album its just pure genius, every tracks a killer especially hacksaw and hammerhead. The samples and killer bass lines these guys use is amazing, they get played in everyone of my sets. (along with most of there other stuff he he). Good to see the old school vibes of set up systems - fairy dust has finally been put to good use and made into a absolute stormer of a track on this lp. Keep up the good work boys.
