“Mythology of the Metropolis” is highly anticipated third Deceptikon album, and is easily his most ambitious work to date. The full-length version of “Mythology of the Metropolis” was released digitally on Daly City Records to rave reviews, chart-topping sales, and widespread fan praise. Now, Daly City Records and new upstart label Tokyo Ghost Island have teamed up to press five of the hottest tracks from “Mythology of the Metropolis” on wax. This is a serious collector’s item. The 12” is pressed to a ridiculously limited 300 copies on transparent “coke bottle” blue, with a fold-out 11 x 17 insert poster.
The record is a genre-hopping, bass-heavy, mind-bending 12” of epic proportions, one that is equally suited for the home stereo as well as the dance floor. Heavy analog bass lines, vocals mangled just beyond recognition, vocoded samples, and thumping drums play like a soundtrack to genres that haven't yet been invented. Created primarily while Deceptikon was living in Japan, “Mythology of the Metropolis” is an extended love letter written to the city of Tokyo, and a reflection of the cacophonous, overwhelming, and intense nature of city life. A critical and underground cult favorite, Deceptikon is an artist to watch in 2011.
