Warp Records Hudson Mohawke New Signing, New EP in Jan 2009

Hudson Mohawke:
New Signing, New EP in Jan 2009

Enter Hudson Mohawke, a new Warp signing and one of our secret weapons for 2009!

A 22-year-old hailing from Glasgow, he has been perfecting his craft since the age of 12. After only releasing a handful of productions and painstakingly hard-to-find vinyl releases in the last few years, Hudson Mohawke has managed to become a much talked about producer.

He's responsible for spearheading a movement of next generation beat music that has exploded from Glasgow this year (also see Rustie, Wireblock, LuckyMe, Numbers). It's not just a Scottish thing either - these last six months have seen Hudson set off touring America, Australia & all across Europe!

With an ear for a pop hook and a forward thinking production aesthetic, our bets are that 2009 will hold an awful lot of action for this young producer. If you don't believe us yet, wait for this killer first EP on Warp - with his debut album in the pipeline.

6-track EP 'Polyfolk Dance' will be released on 19th January - but there's 2 advance tracks available to download on Bleep now! After hearing these we hope you're as excited as we are.

A Bit More About Hudson Mohawke

At age 7 Hudson fell in love with jungle & rave music and it kick started an obsession collecting as much music of all genres as he could.

At age 10 Hudson was making his first mixtapes, mixing between a personal cassette player & a broken hi-fi turntable.

At age 12 he started making music, using only a Playstation.

At age 14 he was the Scottish champion of both the ITF and UK DMC DJ Championships.

His influences are diverse - as the EP title 'Polyfolk Dance' implies. For starters try 80s synth funk, hip-hop, folk and hardcore.

He seeks a thrown together aesthetic, rough around the edges and relying more on iconic melodic content than polished production.

Hudson’s dad played the cop with mobile phone bomb who blew up the jail in "Batman returns". He is one of the few actors who was also in the original "Batman".
