James T. Cotton, one of the many aliases of employed by Tadd Mullinix, has just released his latest EP, Beats in Space, via Shaddock Records. The title track, a playful spin on the sounds of early techno and classic house, was apparently signed on the spot when Shaddock reps heard Mullinix playing it out at a gig in Berlin. The record also features a remix of the title track by New York City’s MadTeo, along with two new originals. “Love Canopy and Vessels” is one of those originals, and it offers a smooth take on the sounds of vintage Detroit and Chicago with its funky, ’80s-leaning bassline, swelling pads, and deep marimbas. Check out more from Shaddock Records on the label’s SoundCloud, Facebook, and Twitter.
