MH-245 Daedelus - Denies The Day's Demise  The mighty Daedelus returns with his new Mush full-length, the fifteen track dancefoor masterpiece, Daedelus Denies The Day's Demise. With a slight tweak to the formula, Daedelus' magic music box has cranked out a project of techno inspried programming infused with Brazilian Bossa Nova, complete with shakers, hand claps, congas, and other mysterious percussion. Of course, the multilayered melding of disparate sounds from far-off times that Daedelus has built a career on remain the focus of each mix. Whether the music reaches you through sweaty club speakers or the refreshing cool of headphones, it will become clear on first listen that this album could only be the production work of Daedelus. |

| The Santa Monica-based electronic producer known as Daedelus is a tough one to pin down. His career began with a bang in 2002, when he dropped his critically acclaimed debut album, Invention. Since then, Daedelus has launched an album a year, experimented with hip-hop and collaborated with artists such as MF Doom and Prefuse 73. With his newest release, Denies the Day's Demise, Daedelus offers up 50 minutes of such creativity and originality, it's almost baffling. Sandwiched between the brash, racing "At My Heels" and the mellow sunset lullaby "Viva Vida" are 13 tracks of churning samples and sounds layered over a virtual army of experimental beats. Yet instead of bombarding listeners with an abstract jungle of noise, Daedelus weaves his sounds into an intricate sonic tapestry that pleases the ears while stimulating the brain and defying classification. - Urb |
