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. |

| Come Here When You Sleepwalk is the debut album by Clue to Kalo, the charmed work of 23-year-old Adelaide native Mark Mitchell. With layer upon layer of cascading melody, the new album is a cycle of slow-burning, wide-eyed introspection, and about as human an electronic album as you're ever likely to hear. Above all, these are songs, not just collections of noises, recalling the dusty electronic melodies of early Badly Drawn Boy and Lou Barlow's Folk Implosion, or the glorious Dntel album, Mitchell brings passion and emotion to the rhythms and bleeps. - Sub Strata |
