HISTORY Vangelis - Blade Runner Blues (1982)
Vangelis, compositore greco nato a Volos nel 1943, può essere considerato il più importante precursore del genere.
Artista visionario la cui notorietà risale al 1973, anno di pubblicazione di "Apocalypse Des Animaux", nel 1982 compose l'album colonna sonora del film Blade Runner.
La grandezza di quest'opera si può cogliere apprezzando la riuscitissima fusione tra il synth-blues e la rarefatta atmosfera post-atomica della Los Angeles anno 2019.
Vangelis e Ridley Scott furono in grado di imprimere nell'immaginario collettivo un nuovo modo di pensare e immaginare il futuro,distante e affrancato dai lasciti di Kubrick e dalle sue innumerevoli rivisitazioni.
La piega commerciale intrapresa dalla carriera di Vangelis non può scalfire l'importanza di un album che ha fatto scuola.Electricfeed(Lova)

Do It Yourself- DOUSK
Dousk is Greek producer Yiannis Douskos, who has released well-received EPs for Bedrock and Vapour – good references indeed, but even those don’t prepare you for the sheer quality of this album.
D.I.Y. is a treat, from its origami packaging to the obvious care and attention given to the music. The fourteen tracks are segued together in a loose sense, not like a DJ set but like a continuous work in progress. The whole effect is like an hour long head massage, as synthesized sounds drift in and out of focus, and subtle riffs rise from the depths.
The music ranges from easy going downtempo, as in the very opening, to solid, deep house. This is where Dousk really excels, with all the breakdowns placed perfectly and some real power in the chord progressions, particularly the anthemic ‘Espero Sun’, just about the pick of the album and a potential Balearic smash if ever there was one. The brooding ‘Chrysalis’ is already well known in the clubs and features a strong bass line, while ‘Sidewalk Lovin’’ is a strangely touching track with reminders of Jam & Spoon in the Japanese vocal.
While the uptempo tracks tend to fare better the balance is just right, the mood set for
nocturnal, widescreen listening. The plush sound effects may sound quite early 90s, but they are so incredibly well produced it’s impossible not to warm to them.
An ambitious debut album, then, at well over an hour, but this is clearly a man who’s learnt well from ‘ambient’ acts such as the Orb, as well as more uptempo material such as early Paul Van Dyk. As a smoky chillout album, D.I.Y. is well nigh perfect. (RA)

Severed Heads - Dead eyes opened
Severed Heads were one of the pioneering acts on Australia's alternative music scene, a group whose work embraced elements of industrial, synth pop, electronic, and experimental music, with tape loops, samples, and full-on noise playing as large a role in their music as any conventional instruments. Eclectic and stubbornly refusing to confine themselves to any single genre, Severed Heads evolved constantly from their debut in 1979 to their final retirement in 2008
