hey! I am not joking here...
The Debut album of Syndrone called Triskaideka (Merck,
2000) was a little bit lighter. The stuff in the new album
surprised me a bit. Salmataxia is full of abstractiveness
and very rough angles. This is very uncommon to the Merck.
Salmataxia somhow reminds me of crazy and experimental
Confield and Draft 7.30 albums of Autechre. Although the new
sound of Syndrone was too concept for most of the listeners
I would like to defend it and get back to the history about
fashion that I have been telling like million times before.
The essence of the album is to demonstrate the possibilities
of technology. But in the year 2004 such technology does not
surprise us any more (album have sounded in this manner back
in the 2001). That is what is interesting about this album.
Nouradays nobody creates the music in the manner of 2001
because everyone is interested in fashionable sound (I'm
already sick of that). Another one big advantage of this
album - electronica without tincture...According to the last
releases of Merck this label is one of the few that do not
like the fashion. They work according to the formula created
a while ago. Stable formula. But the number of 1000 printing
isn't changing as well...That is sad.

It's a straight up Autechre rip off with little in the way
of it's own identity.

Hi!

The feel of this album 'exemplifies' what I wouldn't want my
own album to be like. Obviously [Autechre] are a massive
influence but I don't want to let it bleed into every aspect
of my sound like with Salmataxia.

vp: I know I know.. hey have you heard anything from Marcos?

Travis Stewart is very talented imo

of course it is a rip-off, but I don´t care because its a
good one

That's fair enough but I find it very offputting.

it isn´t a cheap rip-off like Tycho for instance

there are a lot of rip-off artists in IDM land imo

after listening to a lot of tycho's stuff i'd say he's more
ulrich schnauss+boc influenced rather than a plain boc
rip-off because he doesn't sound much like boc imo. at least
it doesn't give me the same feeling.
