"The Detroit electronic music landscape could, in a broad sense, be described as the land of Cybotron and Dilla. Futuristic takes on soul music with drum machines and synthesizers are the rudiments of this forward-thinking musicianship. Jason Hogans is a prime example, drawing on different genres to make engaging music for the mind and body. On Malletts Creek, his debut EP for Sound Signature, elements of dub combine with complex polyrhythmic drum machine workouts. It's an honest, evolutionary take on breakbeats -- many others try to use breaks in an interesting manner, but rarely do these experiments sound as coherent and enjoyable as on Malletts Creek." --Resident Advisor

"He makes some of the slickest left-field electronica ever heard. Imagine Gang Starr's DJ Premier remixing the music to the early Nintendo games or a jam in a 9/8 time signature that could actually make you dance as opposed to scratching your head. Hogans combines intricate chord changes with bizarre meters (ala Squarepusher and Wagon Christ) that pulse with own logic of funk, varying blends of organic and synthetic sound in the tradition of Herbi Hancock or Stevie Wonder."
