Qonquer Death - Just Watch EP


"Qonquer Death - Just Watch EP"

Electro-Funk EP released by God Made Us Fonky Records.




Dagda's Arp EP


"Dagda's Arp EP is the first collaboration between European musicians Zoë Blade and PIG. These low tech mixes are a stark contrast to the forthcoming album's clean versions, replacing the glossy softsynth parts with a multitracked Doepfer A-100 for a grittier, raw feel. From clangourous homebrewed drums made out of repurposed household objects, to modular analogue synthesiser parts, to bittersweet orchestral strings, this is a quirky, innovative release that spans a wide range of sounds. It is unashamedly amateur and experimental, proving once more that passion and experimentation win out over received wisdom."

This Thing We Must Do, Never Knowing & One Second Before Nothing

One Second Before Nothing

Uploaded by JohnLRice on Apr 4, 2012

"If you had one second left to live, and everyone else along with all of mankind's history and achievements and the entire planet only had 1 second left, what would be your final thought? What would be most important to you? What would you wish you would have time for? What wrongs would you wish you could resolve? You most likely have a lot more than 1 second right now, so why are you not spending the time thinking about and acting on that which is truly important to you?"

Summer Requiem EP - Adam Pietruszko


"New EP from the creator of KNOBZ.NET!

These relaxing tracks were inspired by late summer/autumn in the countryside, where I moved lately.
They tell a story of how summer passed away...

Analog, modular synth sounds + nature sounds + some "traditional" stuff...

Enjoy!"

"RETRO SOUND, FUTURISTIC OUTLOOK
Electro Producer uses Vintage Synths to Create Modern Sounds
Seeks New Approaches to Success as an Independent Artist

Buzzing basses, searing pads, thick drums—it’s hard to imagine that the sounds on OPERATOR’s debut EP RHAAAWWWGH! were made with technologies that have been around since the 60s. But while some of the technology may be dated, the sound is not. By combining analog synths with new, digital technologies and utilizing a radical approach to dance music production, OPERATOR has created a unique brand of electro that he believes is more “human” than so much of today’s “digital sounds.”

OPERATOR’s business model also couldn’t be further from tradition. By releasing the EP on his own label—TriSqrSaw Records—and using the power of the web and social media as promotional tools, OPERATOR has blazed a trail for himself in the independent music marketplace. Indie artists are more empowered than ever nowadays, and OPERATOR is using that to his full advantage by working with Baseware, a division of Beatport that facilitates online distribution for independent artists.

With the help of his supporters, OPERATOR was also able raise enough money through the fundraising site Kickstarter.com to print a limited run of the EP on vinyl. The records will be available on his website, operator-­‐music.com. You can also join OPERATOR’s growing community through facebook, twitter, and soundcloud (links below.)

RHAAAWWWGH! also features remix artists from three continents, | vo§uru | from Russia, What Is Lost, originally from Italy, now based in Berlin, and Todd Barton from the US. OPERATOR met | vo§uru | (who will be featured on the B side of the vinyl release) on soundcloud. After hearing some of his productions, OPERATOR approached him about a remix.

“It attests to the power of the internet to bring people together who would probably otherwise never cross paths,” OPERATOR says. He believes that having such disparate producers adds a great variety and uniqueness to the EP and hopes to work with them again.

The man behind OPERATOR, Joel Henigson, started playing music at age eight, starting on piano and guitar before moving into songwriting and computer production. In 2009, he graduated Suma Cum Laude from Berklee College of Music with a Bachelors of Music in Songwriting. Over the years he has become entrenched in electronic music production and works as a producer, performer, and teacher in Oregon. He owns his own studio, The Laboratory Music Studios, where he produces and writes.

TriSqrSaw Records was founded in 2011 as a home for OPERATOR and other likeminded independent artists. Featuring electro, techno, and other genres of electronic music, TriSqrSaw releases in digital formats as well as vinyl."

SHERMAN FILTERBANK AND ROTA-SYNTH IN ACTION


YouTube Uploaded by pianoloft on Jan 20, 2012

"I think, the SHERMAN FILTERBANK is one of the best analog filters ever built. It owns a warm sound with a lot of possibilities of distortion and a great screaming resonance. It allows endless combinations of its components, so you can discover surpriseing results, also if you are very familiar to it. ROTA-SYNTH is a desktop analogue 8-step sequencer, coupled with a monophonic analogue synthesizer. It is very useful because of it´s intuitive handling. I like both instruments because of their unique and individual character. ENJOY!"

Kickstarter--OPERATOR EP, Limited Vinyl Run

On Kickstarter [note the Kickstarter is over. Moving this post over from P as part of the migration of all music posts to C]
"OPERATOR is the pseudonym of Joel Henigson--electronic musician and producer. He is poised to release his first ever official album, an EP entitled Rhaawwgh!, the name stems from the primal nature of these electro picks. There will be three original songs from OPERATOR as well as alternate versions and remixes. Included in the remix lineup are: Vosuru from Russia, Berlin based Nick Foglia, and Ashland synth guru Todd Barton. Joel operates a project studio in Ashland, OR and is self funding this project, but printing vinyl is expensive, and that's why he needs YOUR HELP! Make your pre-order/pledge today and help to make the vinyl printing possible." On Kickstarter here.

Check out some samples of OPERATOR's work:

Insula "llegar" ep, free download

http://escalared.com/archives/516 - free download
"Llegar is the new second job Insula, this time for the netlabel scale. Behind this project is Leonardo Mirabal, a Venezuelan based in Madrid for many years and active part of the collective + MAS (Madrid Artistas Sonoros). His music takes us to small, intimate, emotionally charged with messages and memories of the lived and left behind. Its production using analog synths combined with the latest technology, result in a job that runs away from different periods and styles but heavily influenced by the more classical background music. An audio journey that seeks to evoke images, landscapes and situations in the listener, thus immersed in a moving display of the memory of what was, what could have been in a dream and changing times.

- All these composed songs Insula.
- Sax on “El binomio del recuerdo” by Aron Pozon.
- Mixed and mastered by Insula.
- “A punto de llegar pero confundido” and “No se si lo que dejé atrás” mastered in estudios subacuátiocos by Música para Khaos.- Photos by Javier Martin-Romo.

Music From Mars


Music From Mars

"The latest album from eccentric British producer Zoe Blade. A deep blend of electronic styles, showing influences from John Carpenter, AFX and Plastikman. The A side unloads raw bass, starts like a bad day, stops on a shilling. On the flip side, layers peel off to reveal a half remembered dream of better times and all that could have been. Required listening for insomniacs and the nocturnal."
