The Descent

by N.E.W Monochrome

supported by

Craig Sue After another listen on the weekend after allowing the first listen to sink in, I was albeit a bit drunk, and maybe playing it at levels that make one's ears bleed & groin ache, your programming dear friend is second to none !!
So much mind blowing Hardware in this amazing album buddy !!! :)

Bill Barsby I'm blown away with the superior hardware synth sounds. The compositions are awesome and timing is super tight. Kind of reminds me of the great EBM era of the late 80's/early 90's. Keep up the great work. Can't wait for more!

about

The Descent is an ongoing "electronica" project that has come about from the love of 70' Berlin Style "programming" in which all the songs were fully stepped sequenced from start to finish , with some real time embellishments played along the way .

The synthesis of sounds programmed in "the descent" involve a wide discipline from classic subtractive / FM / Additive/ Wavetable and Particle to name but a few .

N.E.W Monochrome represents that an all hardware studio setup can still can offer the listener a myriad of fantastical N.E.W sonic sound scapes and journeys.

This album was put together utilizing Step Sequencer Software Numerology Five 12 connected exclusively to an all external hardware Synths / Samplers/ drum machines setup . Tracked and recorded /mixed using Presonus Studio One Software. PS.I'm not trying to make a statement using all hardware..It's just what I know best and enjoy and have interacted with over the many years. Man and the Machines.

If you have access to a sub speaker ...attach immediately, if not already, and play the album loud .

You'll find studio setup pics in the bonus items should you wish to have a little peak a boo .

If you've downloaded this album or any songs , a sincere thank you and I hope you've enjoy the ride . Cheers Andy B.

PS..............N.E.W is an acronym for Neika Electronic Workshop.
