Polyfolk Dance

Hudson Mohawke

A neon-hued blueprint for the wonky movement. Off-kilter hip-hop rhythms meet hyper-saturated synths and soul-drenched vocal chops in a brilliant, unstable dance.

It sounds like a Sega Genesis having a beautiful, soul-infused nervous breakdown.

A hyper-active, neon-lit celebration of rhythmic instability and melodic joy.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the drums in 'Polkadot Blues' seem to stumble and trip over themselves before landing perfectly on the one.
The sudden explosion of shimmering, high-definition synth brass that cuts through the dusty atmosphere of 'Monde'.
The pitch-shifted vocal soul samples in 'Overnight' that feel like a transmission from a radio station in a parallel dimension.
