I made this track back in 2001, 20 years ago with one of my friends. I was under a huge 'Matrix influence' that time, as the first and the one and only Matrix movie was one of my favourites (and still is). Obviously that time without social media and any other promoting channels the track was undiscovered and was available only for my friends.

But when I realized that they will do another sequel to the Matrix trilogy, I decided to go back to this track and will do a 2021 version, a more synthwave/cyberpunkish version and a much better mix. So basically I've recreated every tracks and instruments from scratch and only used the old original speeches of Morpheus and Neo from the movie.

And finally here we go, here is my new track from my upcoming 2022 LP album.

Megablast about his production:

”Lies“ started with a very simple but catchy Juno 60 Arpeggio Bassline, which I created around 10 years ago.

I am an 80’s child and believe that in your early years, your subconscious mind stores a lot of first impressions and emotional moments. I listened to Roxy Music at my parents’ home when I was a kid, alongside all the great pop tracks from Icehouse to New Order, which were played on the radio.

2020, when Covid started, I was locked in my studio on the island of Ibiza. I couldn’t see my little daughter, all my flights got cancelled and I had no idea when I would see her again. A few weeks later my beloved grandmother who supported me on my path with music since I was a kid passed away. I was swept up in a wave of heavy emotions and really down.

So, I decided to put all my emotions in the track I started so many years ago. I made a post on FB asking if anyone had any idea of a vocalist who could fit my expectations and I got introduced by my friend Luna Ibiza, to Steven Jones who was based in the UK.

I sent him ideas of the vocal I had in my mind. He liked it a lot and started recording and sent me the parts. Later on I got in touch with Depeche Mode’s Tour Drummer Christian Eigner, who I went to school with. He immediately liked the track and the idea, and recorded the drums for „Lies". I added some guitars with Matthias Simoner and it took quite a while to finish the whole package.

Today, I can tell that going with the flow without any stress is the best way for producing music. Many people might be surprised as it’s (maybe) untypical for what I am known for, regarding my earlier productions like „Vamos" or "Soy Como Soy", which were heavily influenced by Afro Cuban music. I don’t want to be categorized. I want to create timeless, beautiful music with no borders.

Music is a mission and not a competition.

Originally from Austria and currently based in Finland, Synthbart (also known as musician Rüdiger Leopold), creates electronic music. His passion for electronic music is reflected in his 15-track debut album, “Dark Times – Bright Sides.” The album includes a wide range of sounds and genres, including synthwave, electronic, and hip-hop influences.

Synthbart’s music is unique because he seamlessly blends sounds and genres into each song. Catchy lead synth melodies and groove take you on a thrilling journey from dark, emotive sounds to bright, upbeat tunes.
