Philadelphia-based producer Maxine & Cleo joins the Argot fold with his Mad Blanc EP. The follow up to his "Pendergast EP" for Material Image sprung from a few weeks of feverish production during the spring of 2014 and represents the duality of the Kansas native's sound.
Side A is full of gifts for DJs in the form of "Flynn Rhythm"'s relentlessly jacking house grooves and the blurry-eyed deep house pleasures of the title track.
Flipping the record reveals the more fragile side of Maxine & Cleo, courting home listeners and after hours crowds on the spirit-conjuring spectral house cut "Mind Is Spinnin" and the dreamy "Proto", gliding on thrumming pads and gilded with vocal slivers.A1 Flynn Rhythm A2 Mad Blanc B1 Mind Is Spinnin B2 Proto
