Perhaps you've heardPersona on the "Ricci's Pieces" comp from FAQT Magazine's ChristinaRicci tribute or few remixes Eric Cook has done for other folks. Maybeyou've followed the links from Kid 606's website just to see who hisfriends are or possibly got a chance to hear the album recorded forVinyl Communications which has been completed for nearly 2 years nowbut never released. But most likely not. Uptight is the firstfull-lengther to surface from the one man electronic show from theunlikely electronica-free zone of Dearborn, Michigan (home tobrainwashed babes Windy & Carl as well as His Name Is Alive). It'snot a charming debut full of gentle love songs and ballads, tritelyrics nor sterile production - it's very much an aggressive electronicdrum and bass by numbers album. The sounds are crisp and clear, verypronounced but perhaps could use just a little more distortion anddesktop fuckery. I'm enjoying the release and look forward to morethings released by Michigan's forgotten son. Best finding this at thewebsite - www.simulated.net if you're interested.
