Terre Thaemlitz

Comatonse, Mule Musiq, Kawasaki, USA

Keeping things outside the box will be Comatonse's ambassador of sound and scale, Terre Thaemlitz. He's been versing the masses on what ‘diverse’ means in a 20-year career of near-continual invention and re-invention, with releases on Bill Laswell’s Subharmonic, Harry Hosono’s Daisyworld Discs, and many more. It is as much about the message as the medium with Thaemlitz. Exploring gender, sexuality, queer culture, class and race, and most recently, on the acclaimed Midtown 120 Blues for Mule, taking a wry look at house music itself, (s)he challenges listeners every bit as much as entertains them – creating a landmark album in the process. ‘A kidder with a serious cause,’ says XLR8R, which is pretty much on the money, honey.
