Mike McClure, aka Autokinetic, based in Minneapolis (U.S.), has been performing live electronic music since the early 90’s. Coming up alongside local legends like Freddy Fresh, Woody McBride, Paul Birken, DJ Slip, and DVS1, his approach to electronic music is unmistakably informed by his long involvement in underground electronic music culture. Earlier in his career, Autokinetic produced hard, 909-driven acid and now focuses on deeper, more spacious grooves. His full-hardware live performances have an unmistakable after-hours feel that is true to his roots. McClure also records and performs live as AutoClub with Craig Lambert (Midnight Music Club). He has released music on such labels as Electric Music Foundation, Serotonin, Trope Recordings, and Music Man, as well as a record label co-managed with Freddy Fresh, Analog Records USA.

MISTRESS 16 will be available at all fine record stores and also comes with a digital bonus track, only available on Bandcamp: www.dvs1mistress.bandcamp.com

B1. Autokinetic - A Saucerful Of Sequence (SNIPPET)

I've written for a whole spectrum of music outlets - from Data Transmission to Inverted Audio, the much loved Ibiza Voice and even contributions to FACT and Fabric. Mainly, this involves listening to sounds, deciding whether I like them or not, and then making words happen about them.

Sometimes the sounds find their way onto mixes (when I have the time between dealing with children and a demanding day job) some of which you can hear on here.

My sounds are myriad. One mix does not sound like the next.
