Press Info:
Blind Observatory coming up with yet another well-written space opera. A three-track universe that holds a reward for those who travel from the edge to its core.
For them it was a natural and easy process to work together as they developed the track, then looped it and added variations to it. “It has been really exciting to exhibit the installation in Beghain: We created a video generated by the frequencies of the experimental piece, It will transform itself, it will travel, hence keeping up with the theme of turning around.
We are still developping and enhancing the project in order to transport the sound from the machine straight to the body. We love the feeling of the machine interacting directly and naturally with the body. We are surrounded by machines and technology all the time. We should let the machines stimulate and inspire us rather than scare us.’ So let the machine dominate us? ‘Yes, why not? We should not be afraid of this feeling but rather embrace it’.
The sounds on the track are progressive, a mix of drones, trance noise and ambient rhythms that should be hypnotic as an entry into a psychedelic world where one feel and sees the sounds, the vibrations right on the skin.
The piece challenges our traditional sensorial perception: the frequencies, as metaphor for human senses, generate the visuals from technology to nature, from analog to digital.

For our fifth instalment, we explored different shades of techno while keeping a coherent feeling, ranging from “Immersed” abyssal deepness, to “Aqua Ardens” saturated drums and rusty soundscape. “Mare Smythii” is taking us on a mind-trip far far away, while “The Tower (XVI)” is another NORITE stomper with a brain-melting 303 work. All in all, a 4-tracker that we hope will satisfy the tech-heads out there, and of which we’re really proud !
Press Info:
An unidentified female witness told journalists that a girl wearing glasses and a heartless man were hanging out in the backyard listening to “weird relentless electronic noise” when she heard a commotion. The girl allegedly tossed the man around “violently”, then ran into the house where she took her clothes off before smashing mirrors, glasses and other items. She then told a reporter: “I just loved them hi-hats and claps so much that when the music stopped I had to do something. Where is this Savas from? From the future?”
Berlin-based dj and techno producer Savas Pascalidis has been steadily making his mark in underground electronic music circles since his first releases in the mid-90s. Born in South Germany and later moved to Berlin, the well-traveled DJ has been among the restless and classically minded members of the dance music community over the last decades. He developed skills that led him into producing records and made a name for himself with a series of dark, loopy and groove driven dancefloor orientated techno music. Pure and simple. His releases earned him a reputation for being something of a dance music purist.
