Data Cult Audio 0084 - Ypsi Kid

About: Ypsi Kid – the ongoing project of Mike Mitchell, Ypsi Kid is a persona born out of Mike’s time in metro Detroit where he was exposed to the music of the 2nd and 3rd waves of Detroit Techno. This influence has been running through Mike’s music in all its forms throughout the years – from techno to breaks and bass and everything in-between - and continues with his focus now on the art of the modular. The last 3 years has seen Mike move from producing “in the box” to focusing exclusively on the modular so he could find his sound and approach in order to relay the essence of Ypsi Kid. This recording is one of his first steps to creating a fully live, improvisational workflow with the modular where he can express the influences, and more importantly, his sound, to willing audiences. This sound has Mike returning to the raw, analog sound of early techno - a sound that looks back to its roots & influences while also incorporating modern tools and techniques - the techno that formed the core of Ypsi Kid.
