Matthew Dear - deserter [Ghostly international]
View this Thread in Original format

Matthew Dear "Deserter" (10"/digital) available 8 May 2007

With his new single, "Deserter", and the forthcoming Asa Breed LP, Dear works again under his birthname to bring his atmospheric production to the music that he first started producing, vocal pop. "Deserter" is an elegant marriage of effects and melody, including his best lyricism to date. Its blue dawn music, submerged in a warm gauze of synths and hum, deftly anchored by a relentless backbeat. The exclusive “You Know What I Would Do” hits the dance vibe that Dear is known for with a Prince-esque minimalism and funk, while the flip side hosts Four Tet's dreamy reinterpretation of “Deserter,” owing as much to classic Detroit techno as it does to Balearic Island classics.

I love his use of vocals, that was one of the big attractions to leave luck to heaven for me. some great vocals on there, much like the one on this track.

The album will be brilliant I reckon.

Brilliance. I really like the vocal usage. It sounds like Postal Service meets Death Cab For Cutie. Melodic Popno?
