Blotter Trax is a collaboration between two storied artists, techno titan Magda and serial underground aggravator/acid techno royalty, Jay Ahern. Now a trio thanks to the addition of bassist Hannes Strobl, the band is set to release their far-sighted, funk-fueled debut album, Super Conductor. Features contributions from Nina Hynes, Ilhem Khodja, David Moss, Shigeru Tanabu, Matthew Styles, and John Tejada. While rooted in electro and acid, the album is impressively low-slung, stylish and funky, with nods towards Blotter Trax's mutual love of Arthur Russell, early '80s NYC downtown disco, leftfield new-wave pop and flash-fried punk-funk.
