Doric - A Distorted Reality

Doric is the moniker of Stathis Leontiadis (Human Puppets, Data Fragments,Exetix,Plexiglas).

Being involved in various avant garde/underground music projects since 1996, intrigued by the ‘all’ analogue mentality of the late ’70s – early ’80s music field, he is passionatelly commited to vintage synths and machines, creating a very distinctive style and considered by many as a “specialist”. “A Distorted Reality”,his second LP (overall,his fourth physical release) and probably the gloomiest/darkest of all his work,is a rather ominus view of the future,through the lens of self-determination and self-redirection.

The loss of dreams described as an everyday personal death that distorts and perverts our charisma,is the main theme in every inch of this record.Doric once again, collaborates with Pascal (Foucault, Noisetoy, Ludmilla) and Valisia Odel (Phoenix Catscratch, Strawberry Pills, Father Breath) and empowers the inclusive aura of the Album with complex New wave features and delicate dark wave chimes.

Adderall Canyonly - Museum of Fire

Adderall Canyonly is a synthesist and string wrangler named Wayne Longer, formerly of Portland, Oregon. In ‘Oxykitten’ he is named Justin Case and is an entirely different person. Sometimes these people overlap, such as the (previous) album “The Cutting Room”. A lifelong fan of analog synths and brooding soundtracks but equally raised on a steady diet of post-rock and krautrock, it’s generally a confusing time when the “record” button is hit. Much goes in, little comes out, and then much is added later, sometimes without good reason. But that’s exactly why someone invented the “fast forward” button.
