Hudson Mohawke's astounding new record - marking him out not just as a premier beatmaker but a purveyor of technicolour billboard R'n'B. Is it turbo-soul? Neon R'n'B? Hologram rock? Kaleidoscope funk? Many records claim to defy categorisation - this one means it. Hudson Mohawke (aka 22-year-old Glaswegian Ross Birchard) has always been ahead of the curve -making mixtapes age 10, putting beats together on his Playstation age 12, winner of the UK DMC Championships age 14 (the youngest ever winner) - the latest step in this process is 'Butter' - 18 doses of melt-in-the-mouth R'n'B and breakneck beats with instant appeal. By enlisting a select crew of vocalists for the 'Butter' sessions, Hud Mo has painted his own version of 21st century smash hits. From the USA's East Coast comes OLIVIER DAYSOUL while Glasgow's buzzed about NADSROIC adds her haunted brothel flow to "Allhot".
