Distant Drummer is a studio album by American hip hop producer Omid. It was released by Beneath the Surface on February 19, 2002. It draws inspiration from the music of Sun Ra, as well as a science fiction book "Hyperion". The tracks from the album appeared on "Logic 12", a Logic Skateboard Media video, in 2002.
Critical reception.
Writing for "XLR8R", DJ Anna said: "While the songs don't always achieve the depth or scope of, dare I say, a DJ Shadow piece, they do exist as lovely and moving soundscapes, and Omid proves himself to be a technically awesome electronic composer."
The album reached number 3 on CMJ's "Hip-Hop" chart, as well as number 21 on KUCI's "Top 30" chart. Fritz the Cat of "Vice" included it on the "Top Nine" list in December 2003.
