a blue ocean dream makes lush synthpop/electropop with influences from the 80..s, with a modern touch.
It started way back in the late 70..ties, my musical interest was born when I first heard Kraftwerk with "she..s a model" on the radio.
In 1983 I got my first synthesizer, a Korg MS10 (as a present, from my father). I could sit for hours with it, just patching sounds, everything from leads and basses to helicopters. Later on I also bought a TR808 drummachine so I could trigger the basslines and have drums at the same time, synced to CV.
I began to record small pieces of patterns on a 4-track portable tape-recorder, I borrowed that one from a friend. I Have always enjoyed making my own new sounds on synthesizers, the presets never interested me much. The analog era gave me all the basic knowledge, on how to tweak sounds out of nothing but sine, pulse and saw waves.
Blipp blopp, my brother Henry always said.
Now I..m only using software synthesizers. I call my studio "The Robot Studio"....
The music has developed through the years and the ideas keeps coming in an never ending stream.
The latest CD "On the road to wisdom" is released on the U.S. syntpop label a different drum.
The album is recorded and produced by me, but it..s mastered by Brian Hazard at the 11th mastering studio, and the cover is made by Greg Rolfes.
several new songs like "romantic" is now being recorded, and hopefully it will be released on cd 2008.
