I'm testing how to make a huge pad by running a simple keyboard sound through a reverb pedal and then into a delay pedal. The Korg Minilogue synth has almost no decay so the notes are really short...until it reaches the efx pedals :)

Korg Minilogue -> Digitech Polara (reverb) -> Digitech Obscura (Delay).

Born too early and too late, putting me squarely at just the right time in the 80s. I don't miss cassettes, but I do miss their contents.

All we know about Telestation Alpha is that it’s one of the last and very secret number stations. It has been sending out transmissions since the 1960s. 

No one knows what the purpose of the station is – other than it is probably part of a secret organization that may have survived the cold war. 

It has just been discovered here in 2019 – so we have released all we know about it…maybe someone can help regarding the purpose and meaning of this.

All sounds come from analog synthesizers. No software instruments have been used. Everything is played and created live. The inspiration comes from electronic music pioneers like Tangerine Dream, Edgar Froese, Klaus Schulze, Brian Eno, Survive and Kraftwerk. 

Telestation Alpha is music like the electronic pioneers played it in the early days.


But really…who is Telestation Alpha? 
Two possibilities: either this comes from the cold war in the 60s – or it’s a product of Martin Ahm’s imagination…no one really knows for sure.

Martin also releases music under the name Code Elektro (Iceberg Records/Lakeshore). He has released 3 albums on digital and vinyl - and has been nominated for several Gaffa Awards for Best Danish Electronic Release (2015, 2016 and 2017).

Code Elektro is an electronic synthwave artist from Denmark. The music is characterized by the use of analog and digital synths - arpeggiators and sound design. It could sound like something from a modern Blade Runner, Matrix or TRON.

In 2015 Code Elektro released the critically acclaimed debut album, SUPERSTRINGS, on Iceberg Records (vinyl and digital). The album has been nominated for a GAFFA AWARD for Best Danish Electronic Album 2015. Also the track "Cyber Dreams" was used for a PUMA commercial.

June 3rd 2016 Code Elektro released the album: "WOLF".

"WOLF" CONCEPT
The new album, WOLF, is a concept album, which mixes themes such as technology, the future and the role of man in relation to nature. Each track on the record describe a feeling or action - and all of the tracks describe an adventure. From the initiation ritual in the wolf den, to the Scandinavian nature, storm, darkness of the night, the city lights - and to the final transformation.

Jon Gotlev (Liserstille, NoHeroes) created the cover and illustration. He also created the large inner cover illustration for the vinyl.

Samuel Hejslet (Lukas Graham) plays sax on "Transformation" and Leonardo Badinella (Billy Sheehan) plays guitar solo on "Lost in Time".

DYNAMIC SOUND ON "WOLF"
Code Elektro has partnered with Nordic Dynamic and Peter Lyngdorf (HifiKlubben) about sound quality and dynamics. The vinyl version - and a special Nordic Dynamic version – both have more dynamics and better sound quality, which otherwise is not possible on traditional platforms such as iTunes, Spotify and TIDAL. This allows for "Wolf" to have a form of natural texture and extra musical depth - although the sound universe is very electronically.

Martin is a huge fan of science fiction and cyberpunk – so he has been working on this album in between projects for a few years. With sonic references like Blade Runner, John Carpenter, Daft Punk, M83, among others Code Elektro's main focus is trying to create lots of images in the head of the listener – from drama to suspense to beautiful atmospheres.

As much as Code Elektro is an artistic outlet for Martin, it is also a fan project from one Sci-Fi fan to others.

The cover design for Superstrings were created by Niclas Mortensen (logo) and Kilian Eng (illustration). Kilian Eng is very well known graphics artist with a special interest in Sci-fi and surrealism.

Both albums are mastered by Joel Krozer at Six Bit Deep / StudioC4
