“If you’ve followed Matthew Dear over the years, then you know he doesn’t like to stay in one place for very long. Even as a primarily electronic artist in the early 2000s, Dear hopped from label to label, switched aliases often, and made everything from steely microhouse to harder Detroit techno. But his biggest departure was 2007′s Asa Breed, the record where he stepped out from behind the decks and reached for the mic. Black City is a consolidation of the strengths displayed through his career, and could be his best record to date.” -Pitchfork.com
The accolades for Matthew Dear’s new LP Black City just keep rolling in. Following a Best New Music nod from Pitchfork for the lead single “Little People (Black City),” the popular online publication gave a Best New Music tag to the album as well. With positive reviews pouring in from many other publications, blogs and reviewers it’s clear that Black City is a critical success!
“Captivating distractions are everywhere within the confines of the titular Black City of Matthew Dear’s fourth full length album. The man who makes the techno world shake under aliases Audion, False and Jabberjaw, uses his given name for releases that seem to continuously grow more adventurous and approachable, and this latest effort finds him at his best on all fronts.” -URB.com
