Blush Response : Sprawl - CD
Ref: 24517
Genre: EBM / Techno / Industrial. CD-ONLY release! BLUSH_RESPONSE is the vehicle for Cuban/American musician Joey Blush's research into the sonic dimension. Reports occur at sporadic intervals, usually in concurrence with the dis- covery of new planes of existence. Born in Miami, and now stationed in Berlin, Blush has brought his sound experiments to a worldwide audience (on labels such as Ant-Zen, Basic Unit Prod., Sonic Groove...). He has toured around the world as a solo artist, and as a member of groups such as Scar the Martyr and Front Line Assembly. He is also a renowned sound designer, having done work for companies like Nord, Elektron, Yamaha, Arturia, and programming on records from Fear Factory, Cristian Castro, and many more. Blush expresses his sound through deep meditation with his electronic instruments, focusing on the interaction between human and machine. He seeks to both influence and harness the unpredictability of complex electronic instrumentation, in an effort to create a direct expression of his emotions. This sonic ritualism is exemplified in his prolific reporting of fractalized audio sculpture. The album also features two tracks with Marc Heal (of Cubanate, C-Tec, Pigface...) On joining the Artoffact Records roster, Blush remarks: "I've been following Artoffact for a while and am excited to be part of the family considering they release some of my favorite artists around (Front Line Assembly, cEvin Key, etc). Artoffact were really good and receptive to my sound and that's what I care about the most." Tracks : 01 Deep Future 02 Black Blade 03 Titanium Rain 04 Avulsion 05 False Consciousness (feat. Marc Heal) 06 Etherow 07 Data Storm 08 Bahamut 09 Only in Death does Duty end 10 In Authority (feat. Marc Heal)
