Lee Purkis aka In Sync, one of the founders of the legendary Fat Cat record shop, returns for ’06 with a double EP on his new Fortune8 label. Purkis is well known for his works on Irdial, 10th Planet and Peacefrog among others, his Irdial ep Storm/Warm is one of the classic moments of British Techno
The tracks on this new untitled release are solo productions inspired by listening to lots of electronic film sound tracks at the time. So while the underlying reason seems to stem back to the dance sound, the real fuel came from listening to musicians and bands such as John Carpenter, Goblin, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Brian Eno & Robert Fripp etc. The result is really a soundtrack that represents all these elements and what they mean to him.
All four totally analogue pieces are strong tracks if used in the right environment and at the right time! Music which can work well on a loud club system as there are enough dance elements to satisfy this need, but also suitable for more relaxed listening as well, thus appealing to both home listeners and DJ's. This is cut on one record red vinyl, one orange, limited to 300 in this format.
Live at Dingwallls, London 26th February 2009 (Eat Your Own Ears)
