Comme des Larmes podcast w / BERTRAM #62

Galactic Funk

Anders Karlsson, aka Celldöd, from Sweden takes influences from postpunk, industrial and EBM and fuses them with a minimal dance energy found in acid house and techno

| Episode 127 | Celldöd

The hero of our today's program is Violet Poison. He started djing in 1994 but his first gig ever was in 2000. Lately, he started producing a kind of hypnotic techno music under the “Obtane” pseudonym. But he came back to his roots in 2014. He grew up with a wide range of music: synth-pop, Italo and bands like Cocteau Twins. The pseudonyms he uses to make music reflect these genres.   

This mix is exclusively made of seminal proto-industrial and experimental minimal music from obscure 80’s/1990-1991 tapes.

1. Which artists has influenced you the most? 
Liaisons Dangereuses and Trisomie 21 mostly, but I Iove anything that came out from the 80's. Lately I also have been inspired by the International Deejay Gigolos label, artists such Terence Fixmer and The Hacker.

2. What new projects/releases with your participation are expected in the near future? 
I got a few collaborations that will come out in the near future, plus the Diana Berti's "The Hand That Seeds Death Part II and III" and new releases on my own label Veleno Viola.

3. Which artists/labels is more relevant to you now? 
There's so many good stuff around now. About my favorite labels, I would say Dark Entries, Mannequin Records, Minimal Wave, Frigio Records, She Lost Kontrol, Italomoderni  and more like that.

4. What inspires you now to create music? 
Lately the 80's Japanese synth-pop imagery, apart my deep passion for steampunk/sci-fi/erotic/horror movies from the 80's/early 90's.

5. If it's not a secret, what set-up do you use when creating music?

My setup is still a bit hybrid (hardware synths and some plugins) but recently I started to work hardware-only and the result, in terms of audio quality, it's much more impressive. Basically the synths I use are the Ensoniq ESQ-1, MFB Dominion 1, Yamaha DX7, Korg Poly 800, Octatrack MK1 and some more.

Decomposition - Fig. 12: Jauzas The Shining

Bulgarian dark mastermind MANASYt（Petar Tassev) has been rocking his own brand of Nurolektro since 2003. He’s responsible for a vast array of menacing titles on labels such as Bunker, Touchin' Bass, Kommando 6 and Musar. An artist that couldn’t care less about trends nor hypes, and whose main driving force is that authentic passion for the genre.
Some of his tunes resemble a future horror movie soundtrack, others a visit to a mental clinic but most sound like what exactly hostile aliens would listen to while attacking Earth.
Currently based in Amoy, China.
