Cyborg Rhetoric aka Dan Cella (fka Dan Carraway, GlowTape!) has been producing and releasing electronic music for nearly two decades. His eclectic catalogue ranges in genre from house and techno to electro and blog house. His debut, full-length album, 'Tales From The Encrypt'-out on CHP Recordings-is a love letter to the internet and the sounds he grew up with in South Florida. It is a testament to the evolution of Cella's sound and craft, as he has created a body of work that adeptly draws inspiration across electronic genres-playfully weaving Freestyle, Electro, Miami Bass and Breaks through themes of digital love songs, online discourse, machine academics, algorithmic abstraction, post-post-futurism, virtual nostalgia and more. Early support for singles 'Book of Spells' and 'Ventilate' come from some of the biggest names in the game including Scratch D of Dynamix II, DJ Mell G, Dave Clarke, DVS NME, Grow and others.

From end to end, the album embodies the duality of the subject it explores, offering addictively danceable beats and lyrical ear-worms that hide omens about the ill-fated future of our increasingly online world. Like the lyrics on the album closing number Hysteria says, 'These are the tales of the encrypt.' Log on and enjoy.

_____________________________________________

Grow takes us back to Elektrotropolis, but this time he's not alone. The Return to Elektrotropolis delivers 4 new remixes of the dystopian electro originals crafted by CHP crew members and a Dub mix of the original single by Grow. The ep begins with Mark Starr's reinvented version of the title track smothered in his signature style yet peppered with some 90's rave vibes. The ep then slides into 'Interdimensional Telepathy' through the lens of electro wizard Fleck E.S.C. who delivers a vibey and creative interpretation filled with energy and complex sonic textures. Then Cyborg Rhetoric arrives straight out of the Pangeria Galaxy to deliver a belter of a remix of 'Biological Mycelial Network' with slamming bass, a driving sequence, and floor filling electro energy. Ekata's remix of 'Secret Machines' is next up delivering a completely new hypnotic take on the original with dreamy synthwork and exciting re-sequenced vocal edits. The Return to Elektrotropolis ends with a dub mix of the title track made by Grow that will provide DJ's with a sneaky way to re-insert the tune into their sets.
