Release Notes:
A man of many musical hats, Texas born, Detroit raised Dear has a wide reaching
discography that takes in face melting techno as Jabberjaw, dark avant-pop under
his own name and intricate minimal as Audion. Often with a gothic slant and full
of curiousness, his pensive but playful music is an intoxicating distillation of
many different influences, often with his own stylised vocals at the centre.
"There are snippets of friends and family strewn throughout the mix. A lot of
the vocal interludes you hear are from a portable recorder I've carried with me
over the years."
As co-founder of both Ghostly International and Spectral Sound, Dear has also
been responsible for some of the underground scene's most exciting new music,
plenty of which appears here. Now more than 15 years, five albums and 20 EPs
into his esteemed and always evolving career, Dear is exactly the sort of
fascinating character that makes the very personal DJ-Kicks series so special.
Included along the way are three brand new and exclusive cuts from Dear himself,
one under his own name and two as Audion. They are typically weird and
intriguing cuts that tie the whole unhinged and freaky mix together. Also
helping to add to the left-of-centre afterparty vibe are inclusions by artists
as diverse as Thatmanmonkz and Matrixxmann, ItaloJohnson and Pearson Sound,
Randomer and Simian Mobile Disco.
"I always have a lot of unreleased music laying around, those I included on here
seemed to fit. A mix like this is always a good place to showcase my own
productions, but I didn't want to oversaturate it with my own stuff."
Wholly timeless yet totally of its time, this is the first new work from Dear in
a while. Once again, though, it proves that he is a master of subversion;
someone who can head down a brain frying techno warren then effortlessly onto
raw machine grooves via left of centre synth ditties and kaleidoscopic house
music. In his considered hands, they all make perfect sense.
"I wanted to create a mix that could be listened to anywhere, and reflect a
little bit of everything that I play. Whether you're in your car, preparing to
open the club, or having a bottle of wine with friends at home, this mix is for
you."
