Cut Chemist rocks the UN

Over the weekend, the United Nations called upon Cut Chemist to participate in the global screening of One Day on Earth, a video series that captures individuals and musicians from across the globe performing indigenous instruments on the same day. Rendered from thousands of hours of recordings, Cut Chemist also created an original piece for the series.

Cut Chemist: Outro (Revisited) (A Stable Sound, 4/10/12)

Earlier this month, Jurassic 5 producer/DJ Cut Chemist released “Outro (Revisited) f. Blackbird,” his first single in six years.

Following its release, the United Nations called upon the turntablist to perform in New York in support of One Day on Earth, a video series that captures individuals and musicians from every country across the globe performing their own indigenous instruments — all on the very same day, October 10, 2010.

The film was screened globally on Sunday, coinciding with Earth Day. Below, you can see an original piece that Cut Chemist created for the video series, rendered from thousands of hours of recordings.
