Various Artists : Iron: Dragon’s Eye Sixth Anniversary [de6010]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“The release of Iron marks the sixth anniversary of Yann Novak relaunching Dragon’s Eye Recordings, the record label originally created by his father Paul Novak in 1989. In previous years, this anniversary compilation has been a chance to look forward to the coming year of artists and releases. With Iron, we will be looking backward at the previous 6 years.
For Iron, artists featured on Dragon’s Eye were asked to contribute either a solo piece or a collaboration with another Dragon’s Eye artist. The results came together as a massive free download compilation, consisting of 24 artists, on 20 tracks and over 2 1/2 hours of sound. The compilation came together as a perfect mix of the styles and voices featured on Dragon’s Eye over the last 6 years.”

Edgaras is currently using only computer software, however doesn’t reject the idea of using live instruments in a future.

Alessandro Crimi : A Night In The Forest [bsc_017]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“Born in Austria and raised in Switzerland, Alessandro Crimi has always been consumed by music. He began learning the piano at the age of eight and later moved on to discover software-synthesizers. Crimi continues to explore various approaches to creating music, producing ambient, dub, house and minimal techno, but regardless of the genre he always keeps it deep and sultry. Crimi’s work has appeared on such labels as Italic, Broque, Geilomat, Sthlmaudio Recordings and many others.
On A Night In The Forest, Alessandro Crimi delivers seamless quality dub techno inspired grooves. Nachtwald opens with echoing chords and panning effects combined with a steady 4/4 rhythm, propelling the listener forward. Nebelwald is a gradual building atmospheric dub techno soundscape, immersing you deep within its floating textures. Waldlichtung closes the EP with a beautiful soft dub techno composition with light floating ambiance and textural crackling.”

Alesio Phareira : Kadouki EP [TKBNET 034]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“A big love with analogue hardware, circuit bended toys, self made synthezisers and electronic music. Alesio Phareira builds his own micro cosmos of sounds with very freaky self made hardware and old 80s analogue synths. Alesio is born in the early 80s in Magdeburg, East Germany. With a early love to electronic music and old analogue synthezisers, he started to make music in the end of the 90s. First steps in drum and bass and techno, he founded later in 2004 the project estrellaRun, with his old friend david. Alesios sound is some funky minimal house withquit a little bit latin influences on it … on the other side he loves to produce very dark, atmospheric minimal techno.”
