Hi folks,

a bit of self promotion for ya:

my group's heavily eurorack/analogue based album "Let's Make a Solar System" was finally released today on vinyl only, samples are here: http://www.iniitu.net/discography_ini_itu.htm Home Planitarium http://www.iniitu.net/mp3/twinkle-tk03.mp3 features Sequentix P3 creating happy analog bleeping and gurgling - along with a (real) hawiaan guitar of course! :)

synths used are AS/Doepfer eurorack, Andromeda and Akai VX600 if anyone's interested


this is what the record label has to say about it:


"ini.itu is proud to release the first LP composed by Twinkle³. From the first sinuous tones,

later augmented by a well-integrated mixture of acoustic instruments ( shakuachi, tremoloa,

hang drum ), analog sequencing, processing and buchla lightning infra red wizardry, they

sketch a (solar) system of their own, revolving around recurring themes, presented in various

dispositions. At times nervous, lively, enthusiastically overactive ( but never frenetic ),

evoking curious explorers still firmly rooted in melody and dubby basslines, they have the

ability to switch off and to glide in an unexpectedly natural manner into more introspective,

reflective and soulful moods, even sometimes venturing themselves into darker areas, where

a sense of melancholy prevails. A journey from the flowing clear waters depicted in the cover

( picture by Judith Goodman ) to the dark still pool from the flip and back. Even though the

comprehension of this album is quite immediate, the astonishing musicality, beauty and

complexity of the work allows - and even asks for - repeated listenings. Something to file next

to Mouse on Mars' Iahora Tahiti for its freshness, and next to Ornette Colemans' output for its

intelligence of interplay, melody and rhythms. The band also cites the great King Sunny Ade,

particularly his 70's output, as a real inspiration for this record, notably in the hawaiian guitar

department, and in the use of the studio to enhance the spatial dimensions of rhythm."



thanks for reading

Richard Scott
