A 64 Bits soundscape
Compiled and blended by Amar Patel (Soul Labels)
Synopsis
Technology has revolutionised how we play, record, produce and listen. This soundscape is a celebration of the sonic adventurers who played and pioneered into a new age of creativity and collaboration. You will notice how music has mirrored the evolution of digital culture – from synthesisers and samplers to digital audio workstations. Early pioneers such as Kraftwerk and Ryuichi Sakamoto sit beside next-generation machine manipulators like Aphex Twin, Plaid and Dabrye. The sci-fi frequencies of Galaxy 2 Galaxy and abstract introspection of Moire exist in the same orbit as the giddy vaporware of Mensa Group International. You may also hear a few prophecies from famous voices amid the bleeps and squeaks.
