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 an album that seduces slowly but surely. You might wonder why track one is called "The First Song of the Rest of Your Life," but by the time you've lazed through half the album you'll have stopped whatever you are doing to fully absorb the sleepy majesty of the album. Lightly plucked guitars jostle with flickering electronica, while Mitchell sings faltering, inconspicuous songs as laconic beats drift in and out. It's a bit of Four Tet, a little bit of Dntel and a whole lot of narcotic loveliness. - Big Issue |
