ORIGINS: Matthew Dear | Resident Advisor

Описание: In the fourth edition of our film series with SONOS, the Ghostly International co-founder takes us back to the small ranch town where it all started. http://www.residentadvisor.net/origins

If there's one thing that sets Matthew Dear apart as an electronic artist, it's his gift for singing and songwriting—not the most common skill-set for someone who came up in Detroit's techno scene. Starting in the late '90s, Dear made a name for himself with blistering club tracks on Ghostly International (the label he started with Sam Valenti IV), but it was his voice, lyrics and swagger as a frontman that would later make him such a unique icon. The source of this talent goes back even further than Detroit to Dear's childhood home in Kingsville, Texas, where his father, also a professional musician, taught him to sing and play guitar. In this episode of ORIGINS, Dear heads to Kingsville for the first time in over a decade to revisit spots from his childhood and "pick some guitar" with his dad. "I wanna see some places I used to go," he says. "What is nostalgia, what is real, what are my memories worth?"
