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. |

| Lush and heartfelt debut album for this new alias of Australian Mark Mitchell licensed to Leaf from the USA avant hip-hop label Mush. Mark has previously recorded for Tim Koch's Surgery imprint as SuperScience. Come Here When You Sleepwalk is ten tracks of blue soul drenched minimal electronica with Mark's slight vocals and acoustic guitar accompaniment. Atmospherically similar in places to the awesome Xela album on Neo Ouija. On the vocal front occasionally Jason Pierce (Spiritualised) comes to mind at his most bruised and fragile. A seriously good album of emotional vocal led electronica and acoustic vibrations. - Pelican Neck |
