Producers: Tim Simenon, Doug Wimbish, Keith LeBlanc.
Recorded at Eastcote Studios, London, England.
Tim Simenon's third record, CLEAR, is a stylistic hodgepodge that covers a lot of ground in a relatively short (49 minutes) span of time. Greatly altered from the U.K. version of the record, the U.S. one--which excises one track, "5ml Barrel," and provides alternate versions of three other tracks, including the amazing "Bug Powder Dust"--is a more stately affair that goes places that others in the trip-hop field rarely, if ever, venture. Incidentally, the U.K. version is different enough to warrant seeking out.
Starting from a fairly laid-back vibe, Simenon infuses everything--from the reggae "Dark Heart," the near-ambient "One to One Religion," and the almost '70s adult contemporary of "Sandcastles"--with occasionally wiggly house beats, snatches of jazz, and a handful of genuinely odd sound effects. The standout track is "Bug Powder Dust," the second of Justin Warfield's guest raps (the first is "Brain Dead"). The track is a tripped-out (way out!), bass-driven collision between street rap and ambient with Warfield taking ideas from William Burroughs' NAKED LUNCH (note the album's similarity to the poster of the film version of that novel) and dropping more pop culture references than you can shake a stick at.

Review    by Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Though Bomb the Bass' third album, Clear, was originally a scattershot, kinetic dance record, Tim Simenon restructured the record for its American release. The American version of Clear demonstrates a distinct trip-hop, techno, jazz, and dub influence, as well as the literary lyical pretentions that were present on the original English release. Simenon created a subdued, multi-layered album, where instruments float in and out of the mix over a deep, laidback groove. All of the rappers on the record are guest stars, including Sinead O'Connor and Justin Warfield. Although their contributions are impressive, the true star of the album is Simenon, who has made an album that proves he isn't stuck in the late-'80s house/techno rut and can compete with '90s artists like Tricky and Portishead. Still, the album highlight comes with a La Funk Mob reworking
