Like countrymen the Mighty Bop and la Funk Mob, Cam is stylistically closest to Mo'Wax artists such as DJ Shadow and DJ Krush; minimalist, downbeat instrumental rap reinforced from obscure samples and stomp-box turntable support, bent and deformed into unexampled, artfully ordered compositions. His debut, 1994's Resistance Vibes, was released on the midget French label Street Jazz and was followed by a live recording for the Inflammable imprint (one of only when a few "unrecorded" recordings in a genre so reliant on the secular concessions of the recording studio). Dubbed Metro Live, the album featured performed extrapolations of many of the tracks from his debut, as intimately as a few new and improvised tracks. Now intimately impossible to bump, those first 2 albums were reissued in America by Shadow Records, packaged together as the single-CD priced Sore Blunted Jazz (particularly utile since getting both on importation could run more than 50 dollars!). Although Cam's medicine has set up little acceptance in his place country, where racial tension has graded the hip-hop residential area into fixed definitions of what the euphony is -- and world Health Organization should be making it (River Cam himself is white) -- audiences in the U.K., Japan, and America take begun pick up on his panache. In 1996 Cam was featured on, among many others, the sprawling Mo'Wax compiling Headz 2, remixed tracks for such artists as Tek 9 and la Funk Mob, and well-nigh recently collaborated on live and in-studio projects with Snooze and DJ Krush (he co-wrote a few tracks on the latter's 1997 Mo'Wax pure tone ending, Mi Sound). Cam released Substances on Inflammable in 1997. The side by side year, his major-label debut, The Beat Assassinated, appeared on Columbia Records. In 2000, he released a three-volume series named The Loa Project. Cam dropped Honeymoon, a smooth melt album that combined jazz and resistance hip hop, at the close of 2001.
