Stirring up considerable attention with music editors, producers, DJ's and aficionados alike avant-pop producer Genoa Mungin captures a sonaric landscape of shifting sensibilities and stylistic trickery where tracks build and dissolve into species of sound and transparency only remotely retaining familiar qualities of the genres they inhabit as hosts. With deep-house at the center, SMC expands toward the margins only to produce new centers of departure. With numerable listings in Straight No Chaser's DJ picks chart list and favorable eyes turned to upcoming releases from international taste-makers, expect to hear more projects from this new comer with an old soul. The long-term Ananda Project collaborator and founder of the New York booty-house-art-cult-band Philistine (NYC), SMC departs from recognizable music structures and utilizes the Saint-Maur moniker as a platform for navigating a new sonar terrain and deep-psychology of dance music, balancing sensibilities of avant-pop artists such as Arthur Russell with and the penchant for stylizations taking 'pan-dance-culture' to other dimensions, equipped with decaying pop vocals and echo-effects, idiosyncratic chord digressions, drums recorded in hallways and corridors, and real-time in-studio live improvisations where spontaneity and dystopic lyrics transpose into live sessions, much like an urban field digital field recording; all without the aid and safety of quantized beat structures; resulting in productions that are intimate and most of all revealing the humane sides of digital culture. The musical mythology of Saint-Maur Clervaux creates its own space and entertains the more deeper shades of rhythm and the illusions of time and their signatures.
