Matthew Dear Takes It Off

• Words: Jennifer Marston

Matthew Dear is all about change. He's long been known for rotating names (recording as Audion and Jabberjaw, along with his birth name), musical genres (techno, glitch, straight up pop), and locations (Texas, Detroit, New York). We figured why not change his look too? We follow Dear and his touring band to San Francisco's Edo salon, where the techno producer/pop star talks about his new album, Asa Breed, while getting a makeover.
