( ;D --> Swedish composer Daniel Segerstad aka SYNC24 presents his second solo album [ Comfortable Void ], a fresh dive into deep downtempo and acid ambient soundscapes.
After the much acclaimed release of [ Source ] in 2007 and two outstanding albums with his other project Carbon Based Lifeforms, Daniel Segerstad immersed himself in his studio and adsorbed his musical influences to compose a truly intimate and picturesque album.
In a continuous mix of 10 tracks, crispy electronica flirts with soothing ambient, floating atmospheres and melodies take root in finely crafted synth textures while pulsating bass line and warm rhythms set the pace of this multidimensional musical journey.)

The Residents
www.residents.com
www.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Residents
( ;D --> Over the course of a recording career spanning several decades, the Residents remained a riddle of Sphinx-like proportions; cloaking their lives and music in a haze of willful obscurity, the band's members never identified themselves by name, always appearing in public in disguise -- usually tuxedos, top hats and giant eyeball masks -- and refusing to grant media interviews. Drawing inspiration from the likes of fellow innovators including Harry Partch, Sun Ra, and Captain Beefheart, the Residents channelled the breadth of American music into their idiosyncratic, satiric vision, their mercurial blend of electronics, distortion, avant-jazz, classical symphonies and gratingly nasal vocals reinterpreting everyone from John Philip Sousa to James Brown while simultaneously expanding the boundaries of theatrical performance and multimedia interaction.)

Torul

( ;D -->  dark and soulful electro pop from germany.

Torulsson, the leader and producer of the band, has had influences from many music genres and other events in life and thus it's impossible for him not to be moving on to the next chapters of the project with curiosity, playfulness and also continuous exploration of the Torul sound.)

Ritual Howls
www.ritualhowls.com/
ritualhowls.bandcamp.com/
( ;D --> Detroit's Paul Bancell, Ben Saginaw and Chris Samuels are Ritual Howls. They collect samples of the physical world and feed them with guitar, vox, bass, synth and drum machines to create an aura of darkness over a pop sensibility. Paul Bancell provides lyrics that Lovecraft would approve of while Chris Samuels and Ben Saginaw provide sounds that bring his macabre tales lurching into the world of the living. Collaboratively, Ritual Howls create a surreal, introspective gloom that could fuel a disco in hell, a soundtrack to your favorite nightmares and most grisly fantasies.)
