H A L T by Alien Robot Dance


YouTube via se7ense7
"My latest song. I made a short clip for it, using Movie Maker (buggy as hell). At the end I got lazy and copy pasted the whole part...

It's all about the music anyway!

I used the Roland Juno 60, Roland JX3P and Yamaha AN200 for this song. Drums are sampled. Voice is from an old Bruno Groëning Casette (does anyone still use these?) I found at the local second hand store.

The Twilight Garden: Dead Adults.


YouTube via hexfix93
"Music Video for the song Dead Adults off A World We Pretend from the band The Twilight Garden. You can buy this CD here: http://www.projekt.com/proj... . "

The Twilight Garden: A World We Pretend : LP Sampler.

"A montage of music from the LP A World We Pretend from the band The Twilight Garden. The Main member of this band, is also a member of the Colorado based Electronic goth band Velvet Acid Christ. Twilight Garden sounds nothing like VAC thought. This is not even a side project of VAC. This is Todd Loomis's Solo project. Think alternative new wave, 80s, rock melancholy. David Bowie meets NIN meets The Legendary Pink Dots."

"Mit diesem Song habe ich das Finale des BOSS Looper Contest 2009 erreicht. Am 22.10.2009 musste ich in der Prinzenbar in Hamburg gegen 11 weitere Kandidaten antreten. Es hat leider nicht für einen Sieg gereicht, die Beatboxer standen höher im Kurs. Wenn ich das Video vom Finale habe, werde ich es ebenfalls hochladen."

Tour de Mars - The Simonsound


YouTube via simonsound1
"The new single from The Simonsound. The A side 'Tour de Mars' is a cover of Kraftwerk's 'Tour de France' which soundtracks an imaginary journey into deep space, beyond the Moon and onwards to the red planet. Heavy drums, Moog synthesiser and spaced out FX supply a cosmic backdrop for the interplanetary message of goodwill delivered using the Vocoder.

The video footage is from Way Stations in Space.

Buy the single here - www.thesimonsound.com"


NASH THE SLASH - swing shift


YouTube via TheLittleDevil
"Electric mandolin/violin player and vocalist Nash The Slash (whose name comes from the 1927 Laurel & Hardy movie 'Do Detectives Think?') is well known for his instrumental soundtrack work and re-invention of classic rock cover tunes while his image, that of a bandaged, walking, Invisible Man has made him instantly recognizable. During a gig at The Edge in the late '70's to raise awareness of the threat from the Three Mile Island disaster, he walked on stage wearing bandages dipped in phosphorous paint and exclaimed: "look, this is what happens to you". The bandages became his trademark. Nash The Slash would put out a half dozen releases between 1980 and 1984 as writer, producer, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and often times engineering and production. 'Children Of The Night' was produced by Steve Hillage and eventually became Nash's biggest selling solo record with estimates at 100,000 copies worldwide. And a fledgling engineer by the name of Daniel Lanois produced the single "Dance After Curfew" from the 'And You Thought You Were Normal' album. Nash The Slash's 1984 album 'American Bandages' would receive a CFNY-FM CASBY Award nomination for single of the year."

Desaturated Life - Chrominance Zero


YouTube via chrominancezero
" HD: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SCRPO...
MP3: http://muzik4machines.com/cktxcv
iTunes store:
Twitter: http://twitter.com/chrominancezero

Chrominance Zero is a minimal project from Quebec city, Canada. Performing Live with hardware sequencers and synthesizers, it creates a plethora of sounds ranging from electro to drum and bass, always with the same minimalist modus operandi; Distorted analog and punchy sampled drums, a few monophonic tracks, lots of effects and constant sonic mangling and tweaking.


The project was started in 2007 when TB moved to Quebec city and uncovered all of his hardware in the storage and decided to use them back instead of performing with computers

The music can be described as minimal techno, with some hints at groovy house and some deviations towards Drum and Bass


Chrominance Zero is now producing new material, performing it live, and distributing it via bit torrent, youtube and a multitude of online MP3 stores (iTunes, Amazon, DJTunes)
