Greetings from Albion. Inspired by Siberia.

Anni Hogan - a participant of Marc and the Mambas which founded by Marc Almond and closely connected with Soft Cell.

Siberia is a collection of compositions intended for the
imaginary undiscovered lost scenes from the films of the great masters of European cinema. We selected 11 directors in all. The directors we chose; Tarkovsky, Parajanov, Kieślowski, Tarr, Bresson, Sokurov, Troell, Buñuel, Leone, Bergman and Pasolini. The intention is that the listener will match the track to the film they feel the music is best suited too, and will then fill in the narrative of the lost scene using the composition to evoke their storyline. You can place this lost scene, wherever you like in the film. It is your imagination; use it. Indeed you are free to select another 11 Directors of your own choice, should you so wish. Or just play it without thought. If that is possible?

Thank you for your attention to our local movement, Anni.

Some news from all around the World

Let's sail on the soundwaves to the Scotland with Holobeams and his new EP. Music of this guy speaks for itself.

and then jump to Colorado.  

The EP mines a wonderfully rich seam of atmospheric yet epic songcraft that Kramies has made his own. From the throbbing ambient introduction of ‘The Beginning’ through to the delicate folk of ‘The Ending’, Kramies’ new EP covers vast emotional and musical terrain during its 23-minute run-time. The title track’s windswept grandeur is married to an emotional directness that demands your attention and doesn’t let go, ‘Sea Otter Cottage’ sways and swoons with an almost unbearable poignancy, and ‘Clocks Were All Broken’ both alludes to and embodies this music’s timeless appeal.

  

after trip come back home with this pretty pleasurable band from Spb.

Dropbox Tunes #2

Доброго времени суток. Сегодня продолжаем ставшую доброй традицией рубрику Dropbox Tunes. В которой публикуем аудиоматериалы, которые нам попадают, в основном, как вы уже догадались, через наш Dropbox. Сразу хочу заметить, что отдельные композиции стали для нас даже своего рода открытием, что вдвойне приятно в наш переполненный информацией век. Спасибо эхогостям за участие и за достойной вклад каждого из них в наше общего дело.

No comments. Music says for itself

Patience RMXS

Special thanks to all participants.

VA - ECHOTOURIZM Vol​.​1

Echotourist community presents

Echotourist Youth

За два года существования нам очень приятно наблюдать как мы продвинулись в сторону улучшения качества информационного наполнения, это и музыка и визуальная составляющая. Но вдвойне приятно, так же, и констатировать тот факт, что наше сообщество растет и пополняется. И постоянные коллаборации между участниками комьюнити разбавляют молодые артисты со своими свежими идеями. Можно ли считать это преемственностью поколений? - Почему бы и нет. А вот и наши дебютанты, встречайте - юные мечтатели с casio, Heatherwood.

Hello, we are Maksim and Darya, and we are dream\synth-pop duo from Novosibirsk, Russia. We are couple of seventeen yo kids and we are in love with 80's scandinavian aesthetics, old analogue\japanese kids synths and each other.

Public Transport over Atlantic Ocean

Hey. We have already appeared on the news of the upcoming compilation. This is not about that, but now the promised interview with overseas friends. The first our acquaintance with the project Public Transport started from the Psee's mix. There are two tracks: "Mondlicht" and "Up All Night". A year later, already watching the Duncan (sole author and participant), we could not ignore his new work, and also invited to provide us with one of his tracks for our upcoming compilation. So meet a guy from Atlantic Coast - Public Transport (Bar Harbor, ME, US)  

See Colors by Public Transport

- How did you start making music?

 My first experience writing music was with ModPlug Tracker back in 1999. It had a really steep learning curve, but the cool thing was that tracker music is shared as a project file, so I was able to look inside songs I liked and figure out how they'd done things- I learned a lot of music theory that way. Netpoet's drum n' bass track "Peachy" is still one of my favorites from back then- the tracker scene was definitely a big influence for me in my formative years.  

- What are your biggest musical influences?

 Wow, where should I start? I've always liked Boards of Canada- I can put "Geogaddi" on, close my eyes, and have the sound textures set off all these colors in my head. They've definitely been an influence in terms of how I build soundscapes- we share a lot in terms of fuzzy, synaesthetic sounds. Apart from that, Ulrich Schnauss has been a huge influence- "A Strangely Isolated Place" really struck a chord with me when I first heard it back in 2004, and I think its combination of melancholy and happiness really resonated with what it's like to live in Maine.

 - What software and/or hardware do you use for music production?
 I use my home PC with FL Studio to host a variety of VST instruments- Green Oak's freeware Crystal synth has been a major part of my sound, as well as various Moog and Juno softsynths for pads and such. I've been building a sample library for about 12 years now, which comes in handy at times when I need the right snare drum or ambient noise.

Public Transport feat. Furns - Seawall by Public Transport

- How do you promote your work?
 Maine doesn't have a very big population, so there really isn't a critical mass of like- minded people here that would support playing live shows. I actually reach most of my audience through the Internet! So far, I've released two EPs online, one independently and one through the Swedish 23seconds Netlabel. I also reach a lot of people through Soundcloud- my account just hit 11,000 plays. A lot of the time it's because I've been linked by a blog- It's really nice to go online and see some blogger in France has written a bunch of nice stuff about your latest release. Currently, I'm remastering and working on new material for a full-length album- I'd like to do a physical release, so right now I'm researching labels!
