My
first cd is a tribute to all the fine techno, trance, electro, ambient, progressive,
new wave and industrial music of the past and the present.
The compositions are mostly upbeat with several modern and retro sequences.
Some tracks are very heavy with a lot of effects and FX textures, while others
are beautiful harmonic and melodic with warm synthpads.
Some of the tracks consists of programmed drum patterns that interplay with
different types of reverb and frequency filtering, mixed in such a way that
its not clear where the instruments timbres end and the added effects
begin.
My inspiration comes mostly from the German groups: Kraftwerk and Tangerine
Dream, but also Massive Attack, Mike Oldfield, Depeche Mode, Cypher, Timo Maas,
Etienne de Crécy and Elektronische Maschine (the Dutch Kraftwerk) have
formed me as an electronic musician.
If you like modern techno, industrial and trance combined with several retro
sounds then you have a great time playing this cd.
Play it loud and enjoy!!
