Facts: One of LA's most daring new artists this young musical romantic weaves together a true “love-sound” that falls between honeyed melody and avant-electronics. Daedelus chops and splices disparate acoustic sources into incredible works of staggering resonance. Contrasting IDM styled cut-ups with childlike arrangements from the 30’s and 40’s, he has refined a style that has no imitators. Exactly the kind of music you’d expect from a scarily well-connected Hip Hop nut who happens to dress in Edwardian clothing and names himself after an Ancient Greek character.
