Forevernevermore
“Each Sunday, Pitchfork takes an in-depth look at a significant album from the past, and any record not in our archives is eligible. Today, we revisit the quintessential release from the Detroit producer, a 2000 mix of house and techno that forms a capacious document of the sounds of his city.”
Black Mahogani
“Newly pressed on vinyl, the elusive producer’s 2004 masterpiece is a love letter to Black Detroit and one of the most ambitious house records of all time.”
Sinner: KDJ-48
“The elusive Detroit producer returns after a years-long mysterious absence with a burning, urgent, and immersive new LP.”
DJ-Kicks (DJ Mix)
“You might expect a set of dusty disco and deep house from the house legend Moodymann. But his first officially licensed mix CD, for the 51st entry in the DJ-Kicks series, confounds expectations throughout, detouring at peak moments, going left where he might build momentum, all of it leading to luminous results.”
Taken Away
“Following a 2019 episode of police harassment in front of his own building, the Detroit house legend’s latest goes hard on depth and funk, but there’s often an ache where the fun used to be.”
Moodymann
“Kenny Dixon Jr.—aka Moodymann—represents the second wave of homegrown Detroit electronic music masters. His new self-titled album throws in plenty of gospel, blues, house music, and roller-rink funk on top of his singular sound.”
Wavelength is the Letterboxd for music.
