about

After "The Zinovieff Synthdrome" in 2018, here is "The Pearlman Synthdrome" dedicated to the ARP 2600 synthesizer.
As for the previous album, I rebuilt a 70's home-studio, deliberately limiting the technical possibilities.
Ambient, minimalism, and experimental electronic from the past...

Album recorded in 2019 at Studio An Trouz Diwelus,
Lann Keravel, Brittany, France.
Digital transfer and mastering at Scoz Milin, Pors Mabo,
Brittany, France.
(Listening with good quality headphones is recommended)

Sleeve design by Graph'Hypnotic.

Nice variety of sounds on this one. It's got some ZEIT in there and some driving rhythms, quiet reflective moments and big beats. Greasy is a beaut. Robert Wallace

Superb Berlin School. Deadlock is surely inspired by TD's Rubycon. Bring on the next album. Graham J. Harkness
