The Netherlands electronic artist Danny Wolfers returns with a delightful mixture of old-school-influenced synth pop, crafting textured soundscapes, nostalgic, futuristic, eccentric and eclectic, steering somewhere between robot voices, cosmic exploration and the dancefloor. It’s a feast of restless invention and musical wit, from that sweary robot voice on opener In A Blaze of Fame, the dark bass and intricate, delicate syncopations and steam-engine breath of Racefiesten in der Plod, the playful tootles of Satyricon Pandemonium, the acid-y Roland 303 and robot voice of Come And See Your Misery, or the deep, sweaty bass and squiggly oddness of I Got Lost In The Tool Shed. There’s much more, all the way up to the sci-fi soundtrack style of Tears of A Manta. But perhaps the standout is Taping A Broken Heart, reminiscent of something between Kraftwerk and Harold Faltermeyer’s Axel F, complete with a fun, DIY-style video. Retro and yet fun and fresh. Out on Clone Records.
