man i've been sleeping on a lot of this stuff, proposition 5 is amazing. I don't mean to deduce it to genres but its probably the best fusion ive ever heard of sort of 70s electronic music stuff + modern glitch. really great

Haha Robbie that's pretty much exactly what I'm going for, so it's great to hear!

Got some more pieces to add to this series over the coming weeks. Here's the first:

 

Really cool stuff here. Digging the glitchy tangerine dream-esque sounds on prop-9, but loving the swells and slow paced build of this new one. Progressing into some nice warm territory...

Seemingly this thread has been neglected for quite some time, but I put this track up just now as a kind of Christmas present I guess. It's more than 18 months old. Enjoy!

Wild stuff! Liked.

Happy birthday Roy Batty

Fantastic work. I know that it's implied but that last track could actually be in Blade Runner. Going to listen to the older stuff now, nice one.

Hmm this stuff is great. Favs (so far) are 3 and 5. Lovely synth work overall.

Awwwwwww thanks guys!

One Moog Mother-32 + Roland RE-201. From my recollection, two takes, then two tracks of those takes processed.

Tracked this in one take in the studio today, after wiring up what was missing from our patchbay. Plenty of fun to be had...

qeustion... are the pics associated with gear you used for each song soley?

...ish sometimes kinda. The more recent ones I've definitely tried to add photographs which convey the main gear for that track.

doctor who vibes

I like your compositions, especially Propositions 4 and 10, but I find the sound palette a bit shrill and raspy. Is this intentional?

Thanks! I guess kinda yeah, I'm trying to hark back to a lot of that electronic stuff made with "cheap" synths in the late 70s. Think Dignity-of-Labour-era-Human-League.

Not too familiar with Human League (other than a couple of famous tracks). I'll check it out, thanks.

people should be fighting to put this out on cd

it would be one of my favorite albums

wow this some great tunes

Can you maybe put these up for downloading somewhere?

Killer stuff-- very interesting. And great tones.
