This Anticon MC-turned-producer is a standout beatsmith with exceptional style. His latest, Collected Remixes, contains the expected trademarks: sharp samples, smooth synths, and drum-fueled change-ups. With remixes of John Vanderslice, Sixtoo, The One AM Radio, and Lali Puna amongst others, the project is evenhanded, allowing the production to compliment the vocals without clamor or clutter. The album’s highpoint, “Into the Trees,” is a remix of 13 & God, which, like the album, illustrates an attention to detail and pacing. Needless to say, Alias adapts seamlessly to the diverse cast and packs power into the disc’s 11 tracks. Recommended.
