About this episode
In the storied days of vinyl, snooty record shop staff, and white label promos, the diligent producer would cultivate many aliases, seemingly at least one for every nuance of his studio output. With DSP tagging and the endless collaborations that are a featured of today's recorded music, does that approach make sense anymore? That is a paraphrasing of my first question to Kevin McHugh , aka Ambivalent, aka LA-4A, on today's podcast. You'll have to tune in to get his answer in full, but let's just say he feels justified in his recently-released album under that second alias, entitled Folio . It's a great piece of work, and we discuss it, in addition to continuing the conversation in recent episodes on the topic of Minimal, the state of the Techno scene today, nostalgia in dance music, and much else besides. This was a great conversation in which I learnt a lot about Kevin as a producer and as a person. You're going to enjoy it!
