Bricolage became the first release for drum and bass artist, Amon Tobin, who was now recording under his own name and on the label Ninja Tune in 1997. Bricolage is one of only 11 albums to receive a 10.0 from Pitchfork Media. 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 commercials for Gundam SEED as well as an episode of IGPX. It is also featured in the Elie Suleiman film Divine Intervention.
