RODION - GENERATOR 

Berlin, Jan 2015.

8 years after the debut LP ROMANTIC JET DANCE on GOMMA records,
RODION is back with a new album, based on recordings of his real band.
GENERATOR has been recorded in Rome during summer 2013, 
at Telecinesound studios in Rome, after two years of rehearsal.

Most of the gear at Telecinesound dates back to the late 60ies/early 70ies,
including the sound engineer. 
A lot of great sounding italian music from the 70ies has been recorded in there.
We aimed at achieving a warm, raw and physical sound out of drums, percussions, bass guitar and synth takes, driven by somehow hippie vocal leads and harmonies.
All of the songs have been performed live while recording,
and only a bit of essential editing and layering has been later done in Berlin,
so to retain a human flow throughout the whole album.

this is the equipment we used in the album making:

- Gretsch drum 1972
- fender P-bass 1962
- fender jazz bass  
- elka synthex
- SCI prophet 5
- ARP solina string ensemble
- ARP odyssey
- korg MS20
- roland MC-202
- DSI mopho X4
- roland RE-201 space echo
