After a string of stellar releases with Proper Trax, Cult Trip, and Mystical Disco, Grey People graces CGI with his latest. Raised in Chicago and currently residing in Nashville, Alex Michalski treats us to another side of his sound as he completely forgoes sampling to give us four tracks of raw, stripped-down machine funk. The tunes presented here are culled from various hot and humid sessions in his home studio, armed with an arsenal of equipment old and new and cultivating a sound as diverse as it is nasty. Witness the pluralist industrial jackin’ utopia that is Grey People—from the crunchy, dissonant piano stomp of *Trench Foot*, and the equally crunchy, driving, new wave dirge of *Moonstruck*, to the cosmic drift and thump of *Lock the Box* and the funked up FM slap-bass of *Wild Intentions*.
