With two LPs and a slew of 12" and collaborative projects, Tadd Mullinix, when not producing hip hop as Dabrye, has been leading the way for a new wave of jackin' house, acid house, techno and electro under the alias James T. Cotton or JTC. Recording for Spectral, TNT, Nation, Creme Organization, Udek, Frigio, Minimal Rome, and Relief, collaborating with Todd Osborn, D'marc Cantu and Traxx, and having remixed Orgue Electronique and Depeche Mode - he has received critical acclaim for his raw productions from influentials like Laurent Garnier, Traxx, and Trevor Jackson. In a recent ResidentAdvisor interview, Playgroup's Jackson says, "James T. Cotton is a genius. Everything he does, I pretty much have. He, again, just makes raw sounding records". Mullinix has been DJing professionally since the mid-90s, meanwhile drawing influences from Ron Hardy to Jeff Mills. JTC has been touring the world and also playing regularly in his hometown, Ann Arbor, blending seamlessly unreleased originals, techno, disco, and everything in-between.
