Fever Dream Massachusetts
Fever Dream is Alias' most inspired and dynamic record in years. Spurred by the psychedelic sound and off-kilter groove of electronic experimentalists like Flying Lotus, Modeselektor and Bibio, he ditched quantized beats, embraced warmth, and set the whole thing wobbling to a warped dance pulse. Ck2 how to vassalize pope. Fever Dream is Alias's most inspired and dynamic record in years.
