Hudson Mohawke: Glasgows Finest



The good thing about a blog is that you get to know some of your favorite artists a little better - beyond just the choons.

For example I learned that Hudson Mohawke, mostly thought of as part of the whole Flying Lotus (aquacrunk?) sound, is now working with Rihanna. And that he's under a lot of pressure trying to break out large now with the release of his first LP on Warp.

The new LP is called 'Butter' and features Dam Funk and others. It's a pretty rich and interesting effort - not just the squealchy boom bap we expect from Hud Mo.

Until I fully absorb the new LP, this rather large, bassy re-rub of Tweet's self-pleasure anthem "Oops" from last year can hold it down.

Hud Mo - Oops

And as a bonus, here's' a recent Essential Mix from BBC Radio 1.
