Shameless Limitless presents: M.E.S.H.

Calling James Whipple alias M.E.S.H. one of the most exciting producers of this city would still be an understatement. Headlines such as „Climb inside the ominous world of M.E.S.H.“ (Fader) or „Searching for a world that doesn’t exist“ (032c) point at the following: M.E.S.H. is searching for something new and the results of his search let the antennas of a global avant garde vibrate. The new and the now –a reference point so regrettably lost within a decade of warming up bygone pop-moments– is what M.E.S.H. is dealing with in dystopian sounds, entangled and networked, encrypted and encoded, fleeting and hyperdigital. As a stakeholder of the Janus collective James positioned the tiny Chester’s on Glogauer Straße on the Berlin party map (OMG! NYT!), his remixes for Black Cracker and Fatima Al Qadiri are on heavy sound cloud rotation and also productions such as Dan Bodan’s Anonymous carry his digital fingerprint. After releases on Berlin-based imprints Black Ocean and Dyssembler M.E.S.H follows up with what is both his most perfected work so far and an accolade from experimental label PAN, his current EP Scythians, a posthuman trip through extraterrestrial synths and sub terrestrial bass lines.
