Matthew Dear - Slowdance (CD)

2011 CD EP from the American producer, DJ and electronic avant-pop artist. 'Slowdance' is lifted from his acclaimed 2010 album Black City. A seemingly disparate crew has been assembled for 'Slowdance': rising laptop impressionist How to Dress Well, whose 'séance' sounds like '80s R&B as heard from the bottom of a sewer drain; Garage-House godfather Todd Edwards slicing and dicing the original into funked-up, string-laden submission; Brooklyn indie princes Bear in Heaven, who rain all manner of dimestore synths and sample tomfoolery over the original; and L.A.'s too-infrequently-heard-from Photocall, whose electro-disco revamp of 'You Put a Smell on Me' sounds like Alex Van Halen playing with Egyptian Lover. And then there's 'Innh Dahh', a beautiful, into-the-light b-side that's found life in the live encore.
