Description: | Acclaimed UK electronic music producer, DMX Krew
has announced a brand new album, 'Unlikely
Seeming', on the Byrd Out label out on 3rd May. The
8-track album showcases his blend of joyous,
melodic synth hooks, textured pads and analogue
drum machine rhythms. Leaving to one side
pummeling sounds, the focus of this album is on
sonic fun, mining the 80s pop vibe DMX Krew does
so well. BBC 6 Music's Tom Ravenscroft describes
the trailing single 'Wednesday Memory' as "the
funkiest thing ever ... it's almost too joyous". From
the first 'A New Story', through to 'Uncertain
Calculation', DMX Krew delivers densely layered and
satisfying tracks, demonstrating the more imaginative
side of his output. The slight outlier is 'Continuation'
which offers the most forceful 303 workout, best
suited to a sweaty dance floor in the early hours.
Overall the feel is playful, intelligent, melodic and
wonderfully fun - best exemplified by multi-synth
masterpiece 'Data Cruncha' and Megadrive-esque
title track 'Unlikely Seeming'. To finish the album,
'Unlikely Seeming' is given a rework by Portland-
based artist Break Mode, managing to achieve a
remix that is at once ethereal and uplifting - it has
4am written all over it. DMX Krew, aka Edward
Upton, has been crafting innovative electronic music
for nearly 30 years, releasing on the likes of Rephlex,
Central Processing Unit, and Gudu. With a sound
rooted in synth-pop, electro, and Italo disco, DMX
Krew's music evokes nostalgia for pop melodies and
the early days of rave culture. - On reverse of sleeve:
