about

Crisp, warm, exquisite organic chamber electronics is the order of the day here from Cathode. This new double-A side 7” for Distraction Records couples the beautiful asceticism of glitches and clicks with dodo-simple melodies, two doses of luminous electronic pop goodness to keep you company as the nights draw in.

Cathode is Steve Jefferis from Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Cathode’s album, “Special Measures”, is out on Expanding Records, adding to his scrapbook of previous outings for tasteful independent electronica imprints including Static Caravan, 555 and Awkward Silence. Logo Magazine said "carefully-coiled clicks and cuts are flooded under percussion that even R2D2 would struggle to accurately compute, where the key is always in the melody and those luscious rolling rhythms", and John Peel declared him "first class".

“Chronophobia” is Cathode’s first work with vocals: a collaboration with Caroline Thorp, who previously lent her sumptuous voice to Newcastle St. Etienne stylists, Fun With Light.

“Economic Growth”, meanwhile, builds from sinewave minimalism to feedback chaos in the space of four minutes. This work is taken from the soundtrack to Richard Fenwick's experimental short film, “RND#04: Economic Growth”, commissioned for the AV festival 2003.

"Recorded during SUNN O)))s European tour 2005, culminating at Roskilde Festival, Denmark" : laissez-moi vous dire qu'il n'y a pas que cette tournée qui arrive à son point culminant mais aussi Sunn O))) d'un point de vue général car Solstitium Fulminate, qui sert d'appendice à Black One, est un monument qui conjugue noirceur vampirique avec une certaine forme d'absolu. Le ton musical plonge très vite dans les graves pour nous faire entrer dans le royaume de la mort. Attila Csihar est un Charon. Jordan Vauvert

For this LP, Formen modified old 16bit effects units which were then cascaded via internal patch points to develop a glitchy sound. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 18, 2021

While I'm a huge fan of electronic music, I love when these projects also introduce a narrative aspect. The unfolding history of Martin's musical journey adds such a wonderful dimension while listening to these albums. Not to mention the great visuals, too. M0T0M
