Max Breslow - Warm Summer Days, Cold Winter Nights Max's first release, "Warm Summer Days, Cold Winter Nights" was created throughout 2004, with most of the composition done in either the serenity of the mountains of upstate New York, or the familiar landscape of his parents country home near Kingston, Ontario. Max has been producing electronic music for about eight years, and comes from a strong musical background. Max also holds a degree in theatre production from Ryerson University in Toronto. Max's style has developed into a lush soundscape often comprised of layers of pads and synths, coupled with deep and rythmic percussion; although when Max starts a track, anything can happen. Warm Summer Days, Cold Winter Nights was mastered by Twerk. 3. Andrew Duke - Second Opinion Andrew Duke has been composing, producing, remixing, and performing music since 1987, plus scoring and sound design for film, television, video, web, theatre, and radio. His music is consistently referred to by the media and listeners alike as continuously presenting a unique and distinct sound; quotes: 'Andrew Duke creates music that sounds like it has a reason for living' (The Wire, UK); 'He often seems to be inventing new genres' (Cyclic Defrost, Australia); 'a unique producer with a strong perception and approach of his own to electronic music' (Koert Notario, Courthouse Int'l Audio, The Netherlands); 'Andrew Duke renews my faith in the world of slow-mo techno' (Igloomag/Microview, USA). 4. Jardo` - The Matter Among Us In The Matter Among Us EP, the influence of orchestral music (particularily during the early Romanticvand late Medieval Periods) begins to arise in Jardo`s sound as it continues to evolve. Jardo` focuses on developing a sound that encourages, if not forces, listeners to open their ears beyond the beat of the drums and into the deeper frequencies that evolve from the contrast of drums with the sum of the co-ordination of rhythms and melodies. This is the second release for Jardo' with phoniq. Thanks and enjoy... neil... phoniq.net
