Serious Slam Fest.
“Mythology of the Metropolis” is the highly anticipated third
Deceptikon album, and is easily his most ambitions work to date. The
record is a genre-hopping, bass-heavy, mind-bending album of epic
proportions, one that is equally suited for the home stereo as well as
the dance floor. Heavy analog bass lines, vocals mangled just beyond
recognition, vocoded samples, and thumping drums play like a
soundtrack to genres that haven’t yet been invented. Created primarily
while Wright was living in Japan, “Mythology of the Metropolis” is an
extended love letter written to the city of Tokyo. Over three years in
the making, the album features guest contributions from artists as
diverse as He Can Jog (Audiobulb, Benbecula), Copy (Audio Dregs), Oly
(170, Ipecac), and Vincent Parker (Fourthcity, Run Riot). A critical
and underground fan favorite, Deceptikon is an artist to watch in
2010.
