DISTRIBUTED BY RUBADUB
WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY A PSYCHIC YES
MIXED BY TIM OTHY
MASTERED AND CUT BY BEAU THOMAS AT TEN EIGHT SEVEN

Tech Startup founder Rafael and Timothy Crombie, aka A Psychic Yes, fortuitously met on a Berlin dance floor in late 2017. A long digital correspondence between Berlin and Seattle culminated in the inaugural release of the Seattle-based Tech Startup label: TS000001. The project is comprised of 5 tracks built up from initial recordings of percussion, trumpet, and synthesizers honed into drum-focused dance pieces in the melancholy Berlin winter of 2018. Split in function between the two sides, Side A features dancefloor-ready tracks, while Side B contains introspective songs geared towards a home-listening environment.
Field recordings of Scottish stone slates accent the opening track Stone Sound, a tribal-leaning dancefloor cut highlighted by syncopated, pounding percussion and discreet melodies. Spacemaker features organic, sparse breakbeats cloaked in bright, hazey melodies. Delicated delights as a series of melodic characters move around one another in a foggy electronic atmosphere. Aldhini Theme emerges as the standout track on Side B, with undulating modulated noise that slowly builds into a hypnotic slow-burner resolving on a melody.

A Psychic Yes - Spacemaker [Tech Startup]

The museum was full of beautiful old artefacts and ancient relics from an era long ago. Dinosaurs hung disjointed by scattered bones upon string from the ceiling, a shell of the great noble monsters they once were in another life whilst a marble sweeping staircase led upwards towards ancient paintings and ornaments. The empty hall was deadly silent under the peace of the midnight hour, only the tapping of feet upon the floor could be heard in the depth of history. It was delicate and pristine. 

Tech Startup is a newly founded label run from Seattle, it is being distributed by Rubadub and the first release is a strong statement of intent from a new face who produces under the guise of A Psychic Yes.
