Orbital inspired music
Posted: Wed Jan 10, 2018 9:38 pm
Orbital are one of my favourite acts. I'd go so far to say Insides is my #1 album. I remember being a young teenager in around 2000 watching pixellated, glitchy videos of them online or the odd Glastonbury footage with their banks of equipment and my mind being blown. I wanted to do the same, but everything was so expensive and big. It was never going to happen.
In the lat year, I've finally been able to live out my dream - at least in miniature with some more budget synths. I started gigging as 'Myths and Monsters' around 3 months ago, with tracks influenced heavily by the Hartnolls along with hints of 70s acts like Kraftwerk/Jean Michel Jarre, 80s synthpop and a dollop of 90s dance. One of my "synths" is a Nintendo, so there are arcadey bleeps and bloops too.
I feel ashamed self promoting, but I know there is a very good chance that you'd like my stuff if you like Orbital and I'd love feedback or even meet a few more faces at gigs. Here is a set I performed in Glasgow at the weekend (and there is a video of some of the set on my Facebook page). https://soundcloud.com/mythsandmonsters ... w-06-01-18 or www.facebook.com/mythsandmonstersuk
