MH-213 Clue To Kalo - Come Here When You Sleepwalk  Combining equally strong elements of laptop production, heartfelt vocals, and non-traditional songwriting, Come Here When You Sleepwalk is the extraordinary new release from Australian musician Clue To Kalo (Mark Mitchell). Featuring both down and uptempo tracks, the release's strengths are its ever-morphing melodies, keyboard lines, and drum machines, and understated vocals that never use more words or volume than necessary to set their mood. At first glance, the lyrics seem simple, yet they cut to the heart of their topic with precision. Damaged personalities, wounded relationships and underlying hope saturate tracks on a release that should establish Clue To Kalo as one of the finest songwriters and producers working in electronic music today. |

| Soothing, swirling electronic melancholy somewhat like Boards of Canada, but a little less hypnotic (as in "less boring.") The occasional fragile vocals and their song titles (like "Within Reach of My Own Arms" and "Do You Know That Love Can End?") seem to suggest an bleeding emo heart bleating behind the blips. That's a good thing, giving these potentially cold tracks a human glow. - Tokion |
