ARTIST: KRAFTman

ALBUM: ELECTRIQUE FABRIQUE

RELEASE: 13TH AUGUST 2021

The Story Of The Album

KRAFTman...The independent Machine-Pop label Plonk, based in Sweden, were putting together a special compilation, dedicated to Kraftwerk legend, Florian Schneider and at the same time, I was recording my own tribute to Mr Schneider, simply called “Florian”. When it was completed I submitted it for consideration to be included on the compilation, the track was welcomed by the Plonk community and the track was included on “We Are Machine Pop 6 (In Memory Of Florian Schneider)”.

Following on from the positive feedback, I received about the track, I decided to release the song as a single and wanted to include some remixes and was delighted to obtain remixes from Maschine Brennt and 808 Dot Pop, in addition I had already recorded a 1980s style extended version of “Florian”.

Undoubtedly, a touching tribute, to a pioneer of electronic music, Florian Schneider, and of course “Florian”, was to be the catalyst for making this album.

Is there a concept behind the album? In a way there is, as many of the tracks, are influenced by the subject matter, used by Kraftwerk in some of their recordings, Telephones, Cycling, Radio-Activity, European Travel, Robots, Motorway Travel etc.

This is the first album release of original material by KRAFTman, whilst not a concept in the true sense, it does have a blueprint, it is an album of songs that are inspired by the subjects and concepts Kraftwerk have used in their releases over the years.

The 16 track CD & 11 Track Digital Download is available from Bandcamp

NEW TO REVIVAL SYNTH

ARTIST : RETROGRATH

TRACK : BLACK LIQUID

RELEASE : 3RD SEPT 2021

Retrograth is an analogue wave artist, with a crooner touch. One leg in the sweet sound of analogue circuits and one leg in the contemporary society with a focus on sound design, philosphy and science, with a touch of pop noir in a dark atmosphere.

ABOUT BLACK LIQUID

The new single Black Liquid, is one of five tracks from the upcoming EP - Transportation to be released in October, touching the matter of movement.

To drive a car is not just a matter of moving from point A to B. It is also about exploring places you never seen before, to go to places whenever you want to. No matter if the route is planned or unplanned, you can choose where to stop and if you want to take side trips on the way. The fossile fuel as as the energy source gives you something that few other transport means can offer - the sense of freedom.
