|
Binar 3 albums available |
Binar aka STDM aka Spank The Dark Monkey combine the considerable talents of UK synth masters Paul Nagle and Andy Pickford. Preconceptions take a back seat to the simple pursuit of cool blissed out grooves and beats, and more than a pinch of atmosphere and melody. Often the spark ignites in the live environment and much of their output is a meld of improvised performances. more info... |
|
Bone Idol 1 album available |
Bone Idol combine exciting rhythms and steamroller sequences with exquisite melodies to create irresistibly exciting tracks. Influences seem many: Mark Shreeve, early to mid Eighties Tangerine Dream and even at times Vangelis but without sounding exactly like any of them. Bone Idol have an infectious style all of their own. more info... |

Broekhuis, Keller & Schonwalder 1 album available |
It started with Mario Schonwalder who after a few years as a solo artist started working with Detlef Keller and then Bas Broekhuis joined in the fun. Much of their music is rooted in the Klaus Schulze influenced Berlin School scene but they also branch off into other more melodic areas as well. They are also very active on the live scene playing more concerts and venues than anyone else in Electronic Music. more info... |

|
Graham Getty 1 album available |
Still brooding over that "difficult second album", Graham produced his one and only album back in the days when synth designers decided that bland panels and multiple menus where the order of the day. Despite that a sequenced work of surprising complexity and structure was born, with fleeting nod towards the Berlin School stomper it was meant to be. The second album is coming... sometime. Knobs ahoy! more info... |
