Amon Tobin

Amon Adonai Santos de Araújo Tobin (born 7 February 1972), better known as Amon Tobin, is a Brazilian electronic musician and DJ.[1] He is best known for his use of sampling. Tobin is also credited with helping to create the emerging "trip hop" genre in the late 1990s. He has released seven major studio albums since 1996 under the London-based Ninja Tune record label where he is considered one of their most successful artists.

In 2005, he created the musical score to Ubisoft's critically acclaimed and successful video game Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. He is also noted for his entirely field-recorded album Foley Room, released in 2007. His music has been used in numerous major motion pictures including The Italian Job and 21. Tobin has created songs for several independent films, including the 2006 Hungarian film Taxidermia.

Bricolage became the first release for Amon Tobin, who was now recording under his own name and on the label Ninja Tune in 1997. The album was a departure from his last effort, Adventures in Foam (as Cujo), incorporating a heavier blend of jazz melodies and intense jungle rhythms. The album became a success overseas and was followed by Permutation in 1998.

The track "Easy Muffin" was used in Toonami advertisements for Gundam SEED as well as an episode of IGPX. It is also featured in the Elie Suleiman film Divine Intervention. It is also featured in many episodes of Top Gear.

The album art for Bricolage depicts part of Alexander Liberman's Olympic Iliad sculpture, located at the base of the Space Needle in Seattle, Washington.

Bricolage is one of only 11 albums to receive (on initial release) a 10.0 from Pitchfork
