Hudson Moh!

@SouthPawBrown's Favourite Album Covers
- Tom Scholefield AKA Konx-Om-Pax's piece
*FOR Scottish experimental producer, Hudson Mohawk's
"Butter" album.
Release Date: October 26, 2009
In anticipation for Hudson Mohawke's trip to my hometown, I decided to promote the piece for Mohawke's latest album and showcase a bit of his work if you haven't heard it yet.
Visual artist Tom Scholefield or better known as Konx-Om-Pax around the web has a new set of melted prints as well as a Bleep Blog article HERE detailing his history with Mohawke.

Ross Birchard AKA Hudson Mohawke, signed to the legendary Warp Records at the young age of 24, is already touring around the world receiving critical acclaim. The young Scottish producer and DJ from Glasgow uses really odd samples to create a glitchy hip-hop sound unlike anything I've heard before. His work stands at par with all the other experimental producers from Warp which puts him at the cream of the crop with years of success to follow. 

Can't wait to see him live as that genre defining music will surely take the crowd on a journey. 
"Accompanying him on the road will be theatrical ringmaster and host Oliver Daysoul who contributed his vocal talents to Butter including the anthemic ‘Joy Fantastic’ & the swingbeat infused 'I Just Decided', as well as Hepcat Radio originator miss Mamiko Motto on several of the dates."
