Claro Intelecto

Mark Stewart has been releasing music as Claro Intelecto since 2002, influenced by his love of Depeche Mode, the Art of Noise, and the Artificial Intelligence of early Aphex Twin/ Warp releases. His debut twelve Peace Of Mind tapped into an electronic soul variant situated somewhere between Hague-style arpegiated electro and more classic dancefloor stylings, providing a much needed burst of energy to a flagging IDM scene desperate for change and fast becoming the most discussed dancefloor debut for years, enjoying re-presses now heading for double figures. Ever since 2005's Patience, and the following Warehouse Sessions, his releases have been largely aimed at the floor, with a production style familiar from Motor City and Chi-Town templates but with a distinctly rich, precise and incredibly warm palette of colours all his own. Warehouse Sessions series has unfolded into a full narrative taking in the many disparate elements that make for the deepest kind of club music - a series that has gained him the much coveted No.1 spot in Berlin's Groove Magazine for the third volume in the series. His Metanarrative album released in 2008 delved into a more poppy slant, punctuated by a deep melodic melancholy that's very much become a signature of sorts over the years.
After a new twelve and a remix for Delphic, released earlier this year, a selection of Claro Intelecto tracks released on Modern Love came out on 14 tracks.com - an engrossing 100 minute trawl through a mighty catalogue of works from a true original.
