MH-238 Clue To Kalo - One Way, It's Every Way  Written and recorded in Adelaide, Australia during a two-year period of great personal change, and finished on a four-month adventure in Brooklyn, USA, One Way, It's Every Way is Mark Mitchell's second record as Clue To Kalo. Designed as a musical palindrome, the album is an unabashedly ambitious, surprisingly celebratory meditation on death. Instrumental contributions from old and new friends, as well as elements of classic folk, lo-fi rock, and bedroom electronica, are all taken out of context and remade as a ten track set thick with overloaded melodies, multi-part harmonies, and literate language. One Way, It's Every Way is a stunning development for Clue To Kalo both musically and lyrically. |

| Reviews Summary |
| A serious contender for 2005's best record - Scissorkick / Extraordinarily unassuming, gorgeous release - Stylus / Lends understated grace and warmth to a genre that's usually devoid of such things. - New Times Palm Beach / A master of counterintuitive pop arrangements - Chord / Will pull at your heartstrings and carry you back to nostalgic places in the best of ways. - Metro.Pop |

| Even if you think chamber pop belongs in the chamber pot, it's impossible to hate this disc. Clue to Kalo's Mark Mitchell steeps honeycombed whispers in harpsichords and arpeggios - only with an IDM twist that's more tickly than prickly. The Left Banke meets Badly Drawn Boy? Don't flush. - Westword |
