Monsieur Crane’s music has a rare electronic energy and powerful depth that strikes the heart with all the evocative scope of a cult cinematic soundtrack. From the first moment we heard the freshness and spontaneity of Monsieur Crane’s synth, TONN Recordings was hooked.
From his home city of Montréal, No brings us synth infused with lyricism mapped over the dark undercurrent of an intensively driving beat. From vocals suffused with a compelling nihilistic charge, No draws the listener into narratives with a somber core. This is synth unprocessed and raw edged, with an immediacy that goes straight to the heart of the matter.
From the Netherlands comes the irresistible sound of Grimdeluxe. His undeniably danceable beat and shimmering synth, form the perfect foundations for his sonorous vocal. Grimdeluxe’s lyrics tell us stories. His dream-like narratives, sometimes dark, often mysterious, are always delivered with a powerful sense of emotional connection to the listener.
The word cold gets used a lot when we speak about TONN Recordings’ synth, so it’s a rare thing to come across something in this music that evokes a warmer tone. But it’s that quality of warmth that has become the hallmark of Misfortunes’ sound. A synth that is rich, with a rhythmic undercurrent, always poised and poetic and a voice that is never more beautiful than in its native Greek.
With his infectious bass and poignant synth lines, interwoven with themes around the complexity of modern day living in an often impersonal world, Crystalline Stricture’s pure analogue sound is beautifully constructed and played from the heart. |
