DE-002 Death Domain - Ethidium Bromide 7"

Death Domain aka Adam Stroupe is a science nerd from Baltimore and, like me, wears it as a badge of honor.  Death domains are stretches of amino acids found in proteins that signal for apoptosis, programmed cell death.  To my ears, his sound is undoubtedly one of the most bewildering, disorienting yet magnetic and infectious slices of downright bleak takes on synth-based dance music. A one man all-live-analogue electronic ice machine (who is also behind the likes of 'SIDS' - Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). His sound is as cryptically raw as it gets - summoning the seminal Industrial/EBM sounds of the likes of early Cabaret Voltaire, Skinny Puppy, and The Normal.

Ethidium Bromide

I wrote this in 1986 for Eleven Pond after I read some magazine article about Europeans who used to have their extra-marital affairs in Portugal... no paparazzi, miles of desolate beaches, old romantic architecture, lots of available cheap rooms to rent... " I asked you twice, now I say to go, find sweat romance, down in Portugal.... LETS GO!" -jeff gallea

Portugal  (1986)

"1986 darkwave, minimal electro band from Rochester, New York. The lineup was James Tabbi (vocals, acoustic guitar), Jeff Gallea (bass, drum programs, vocals, keyboard), Jack Schaefer (electric guitar) and Dan Brumley (synths, samples, vocoder, melodica). They released the “Bas Relief” LP in 1986, only 500 silkscreened and hand numbered copies of the record were made which are now extremely sought after by minimal synth enthusiasts. This gem has a wonderful low-tech warm driving synth sound that is infectious. The vocals are haunting and the bass lines remind of Joy Division.  Almost every song is killer dark post-punk or electronic synth wave. They seemed to take cues from Echo and the Bunnymen, early New Order, Fad Gadget, and Depeche Mode. Songs like Watching Trees, Tears and Cinnamon, Portugal, Ignorant Father, and Temporal deserve to be heard. Timeless." -Goutroy 

Legendary Bas Relief album will be released for the very first time on CD via Other Voices Records!

You may be surprised to hear, after listening to the first Phase of the Resonance 10-year anniversary compilation which features a very ambient track by Ravelston that this is indeed the same artist who got everyone very much dancing at the compilation's launch party in June....but I assure you it is. If you were there, you know. If you weren't, then get yourself initiated and enjoy this 45 minutes of cosmic, bass-powered, post-disko from Edinburgh's Ravelston.

Programmed Cell Death - 8.13.15 Drone

Dark Day was the brainchild of Robin Crutchfield  formed after leaving New York’s seminal No Wave band, DNA. Following the first few incarnations and various lineups, 1981 saw the direction of the project morphed into an electronic keyboard duo where Robin was joined by Bill Sack. Together they recorded an album of nine songs entitled Window that was released on Plexus Records. Lyrics were inspired by various sources including occult texts by Colin Wilson and art by Leger, Bruegel, Malevich, Man Ray, Duchamp and Jean Cocteau. The mechanized sound of Window is less one of the man machine robots in charge of Kraftwerk than man at the mercy of his machines. The infectiously-engaging toy-like instruments captured the ears of fans worldwide with popcorn drum rhythms. A Synare borrowed from Jeff and Jane Hudson lent a “Bette Davis Eyes” crack to the percussion on the percolating tracks. The instant polaroid images, an homage to Japanese recording artist Susan of “The Girl Can’t Help It,” adorned the album sleeve in two stark headshots of musicians at work, haunted by the unseen. The front cover, a Crutchfield-designed collage in two tones of salmon flesh and Mediterranean watery blue show a string of rickety children in diaper togs, forced much like the children of “Cat In The Hat” to spend a dreary day indoors. The look on the children’s faces asks you to determine whether they are needing to be rescued from their enclosure, or inviting you to join and play. Is the window something you look out, or in? You must answer that question.
Carefully remastered by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley and limited to 500 hand-numbered copies. This re-issue also includes a 24-page newsprint zine “Darker Days As I Recall Them” by Robin Crutchfield and an 8×11 lyrics sheet with song meanings and reflections from Robin Crutchfield and Bill Sack on the making of Window.
