Tadd Mullinix makes spaced-out house tracks as James Cotton, one of his many guises devoted to a specific production style. This particular alias debuted in 2001 on Ghostly International with the "Mind Your Manners" single. In 2003, Cotton switched over to Ghostly subsidiary Spectral Sound for an appearance on the various-artist State of the Union 12"; that same year, he appeared on Ghostly's State of the Union compilation and released another Spectral single, "Buck!," which included a remix from Kompakt's Reinhard Voigt. The single "Press Your Body," as well as full-length release The Dancing Box, came out in 2004. [See also: Tadd Mullinix, Dabrye, Charles Manier, SK-1.] ~ Andy Kellman
