For The Geek and VRV, everything is a matter of time. Since they first met six years ago, the two beat makers have been broadcasting their music to all four corners of the world, and their collaboration is as strong as ever after all these years. Vanguards of the French instrumental hip-hop scene, they’re coming out today with their first album, “Time Machine,” a synthesis of the sounds and the ideas they’ve been working on from the very beginning of their careers. “Time Machine” is a trip back through time, as its name suggests, demonstrating the range of sound possibilities that they created in previous projects and on their international tours. In “Time Machine,” The Geek and VRV have turned on their time machine to bring us to the year of James Brown’s birth, and find the unstoppable groove of “Get Funky 1933.” With hip-hop always in sight, the explosion of disco inspired them to record “Roller Disco Party 1980,” and the film Back to the Future was the inspiration behind “Time Machine 1985.” The mixing of different time periods means that the styles, genres and atmospheres are channeled to perfection. The Geek and VRV have been preparing for this trip for five years now. With “Time Machine,” the time has come for them to begin their exploration, and to take us along for the ride.
