Track:
This here is the masterful combination of an awesome summertime influenced hip-hop party beat with the whimsy that sets Daedelus apart. I would call this one epically fun, and banging for your next odd dance party.

Daedelus' Flying Circus

Artist:

Album:

Track:
I am always tempted to call Daedelus' music kitsch, but that would have a slightly plastic connotation. His music has consistently become more complex but no less catchy, with sampling and sequencing that mashes up more genres than I can name check. Think IDM with an eccentric's view of musical history.His last EP was out a year ago but I just revisited it and forgot what an incredible listen i...

DEAF - So how was it for you?
-
Artist:
Some real highlights this weekend for me. Daedelus absolutely killed his set on Friday night. What a performer (see video below) - he's the apotheosis of a DJ - playing his own tracks amidst a gazillion others with a big smile on his face and his hands darting around his Monome box. Steinski was better [...]

Daedelus + Ghislain Poirier - Doug Fir Lounge (Portland, OR; June 17, 2009)
-
Artist:
Ghislain Poirier’s nut-job Lazer Bass (Future Blap? Turbo Crunk?) set was near maniacal when Daedelus, or should I say “Dr. Jekyll"—what was with that costume?—crept on stage at the Doug Fir. For at least 15 minutes, Daedelus stood to Poirier’s right and enjoyed himself, nodding with the beat and busting an occasional move to punctuate his approval.Infectious and huge as hell, Poirier’
