HEAD GONE WRONG BY NOISE

Double vinyl LP pressing. Almost a decade since his classic album aeNoi NoAE, NYCAEs Madteo runs amok on Honest JonAEs with nine tracks of groove graffiti, scrawling on disco, hip hop, house and garage styles with inimitably thrifty, freehand tekkers With the dance geeAEd up by MadteoAEs AEStr8 CrookedAE batch - his first 12o in years - 'teo continues to express a mix of deadly cool and charmingly frazzled dance trax in his patented rug-slipping/rug-cutting fashion on 5th studio album, aeHead Gone Wrong by Noise.AE Club music by nature, but with an abundance of detail and chicanery that will come to light with headphones and home listening, itAEs another masterclass in how to do it your own way with nary a fuck given for norms, but still loadsa love for the original forms. Whether turning deep disco boogie into a psychoactive lather, as on aeSince Man Crawled Out of The SlimeAE, or voicing the buzz in his head on AENot This, Not ThatAE, he simply canAEt help but do it with properly slanted style. Upending the contents of local record shop bargain bins into a bucket-headed smoke out, the results spell out a sort of slippery, noirish soundtrack to nocturnal jags between greasy dive bars and backstreet pick-ups, getting progressively lost to its own lowlit world in the most absorbing way. His avant B-boy/soundboy chops are at full flex on the slompy bomb aeBig Stack AttackAE, and framed at his longest and loosest in the albumAEs core trio of mazy jazz-house joints between aeDeserts of Social IsolationAE, the rangy swang of aeFreeze The CheeseAE and the deep fried drums of aeThey Rolled Over For Him And He Rolled Over ThemAE, with a real future classic in the air-step strut of aePeople Impersonating Persons.AE Fans of everyone from Shake to Actress, Demdike Stare and Theo Parrish who donAEt know this G owe themselves a check. Everyone else; you know the score!'
