SKA 032-2EP
|
Volume two in Doyobi's Digital Music series. The electronic tonalities and rhythmic arrangements deployed here showcase the duo's more mechanistic and caustic aesthetic. Convulsive computer-chunk beats and excoriated synth-noises are dramatically thrown into a blender then rebuilt to produce gelatinous slurries of pure Team Doyobi goodness.

SKA 032EP
|
Skam Records presents a new EP of electronic & computer music by Team Doyobi. Digital Music Volume 1 was created using personal computing technologies to record, process and arrange synthesized sound into sequential melodic compositions and rhythmic structures. Utilizing technological systems spanning the last four decades of electronic music-making, the tonalities and timeless atmospheres contained on this sanguine recording were inspired by visions of synthetic utopian resorts amidst florescence-dappled procedural forests and CFD lakes, with zoned-out, hypnotic states of golden-hour warmth.

SKA 030EP
|
Orch.V is an EP of computer music from Team Doyobi, featuring some hefty sonic matter with a raw, fuzzed-out sound. Eroded retro-synths, bloated bass lines and beat-shrapnel threaten to playfully melt your cones and skew genre classification. "Plastic Vampires" features samples from an evil sorcerer mashed up in a Mantronix edit fest, "Sinusoidal Man" takes you on a journey through a dense, polyrhythmic acid jungle, while "Skylight Red Omega" gets out its axe for some '80s TV-theme ARP-rock.

This is the third full-length album from prolific Leeds-based producers Alex Peverett and Chris Gladwin. On the whole, it's a slightly more gentle and less bumpy journey when compared to 2004's Choose Your Own Adventure, a sentiment that is also reflected in the stunning hand-drawn illustrations by Oliver Redding that make up the album's cover artwork. Make no mistake, there are still plenty of bleeps, whirls, zaps and cartoon-busyness to satisfy any '80s glitch prankster -- but the tracks seem grounded with smooth, seamless rhythms for a nice, consistent listen. The fact that Alex and Chris now live on opposite sides of the world doesn't seem to be slowing their work rate down, if anything, the opposite is the case. 2007 could well be a busy year for Team Doyobi, and apparently, their fourth album is already almost in the bag, along with various other "conceptual projects." They are certainly keeping themselves, and Skam, very busy indeed.

"A limited edition 'blasts from the past' 3 tracker from the team. First up the mighty 'A-Mode', weighing in at a hefty 10 minutes and full of the twists and turns that you would expect from Gladwin and Peverett. Backed up with two tracks that may seem strangely familiar, 'Muller Fokker Effect' and 'The East Coast'. Taken from the trackstreaming section of the Skam web site."

"Updating a lost era when horror movies weren't 'ironic' and the directors knew how important the right synthetic soundtrack was. An era when 'progressive' was a word to cherish and musicians were sincere and serious in all their free-expressive ways. Team Doyobi have produced their long awaited second long player for Manchesters legendary Skam label. Choose Your Own Adventure is a modern conceptual album, a true journey from start to finish. As soon as the needle hits the record the listener it transferred into a world rooted within the fantasy and mythologies of a computerized new world. Where ancient psychedelic dreams mix with more futuristic ideals, immersing the listener between depths of serious modern electronic architectures. The fantasy landscapes accompanying the adventure in a 16 page full color booklet, bridge the gaps beautifully between abstraction and science fiction illustration. As does the Audio bridge points between electronica, progressive rock, computer based experimentation, academia, funk and fun. Neither retrospective nor nostalgic C.Y.O.A becomes Inappropriate as a lifestyle accompaniment, this album exudes freedom for the individual to shake loose to and trip out into the future. Land your mind through the dust clouds of their world, and travel safely along the rollercoaster ride of the collective Doyobi imagination. But always remember to Choose Your Own Adventure."

"8 brand new tracks from the Wolds-massive 8-bit operators Gladwin & Peverett, straight from their grubby little CPU's and into your ear-holes. Highlights include the blissed up squeals and floaty melodies of the electronic ballad 'Aviate', the slappy yet smooth sax-sex contours of 'Style 'n' Stance', and the orch-blast workout of 'On The Money'."

"Skam recordings of Manchester, England, are proud to release the first full-length recording by Team Doyobi. Following their many releases and remixes for various labels, last year saw the first solo eight track EP ska016 Push Chairs For Grown Ups. Team Doyobi see Cryptoburners as a culmination of ideas over the last seven years. This is, in no way any kind of an ending, but more of a beginning, an arrival, Team Doyobi has finally loaded."

"Debut full EP after a split with the unfraggable Req on FatCat and a few tracks on the Sofa Variations (Sofa), Chihuahuas and Chinese Noodles (555), Digital Space (Lovebytes), and Attitude (Tigerbeat6) comps for this Leeds based duo. An interesting mix of lo-bit melody fragments (SID-chip possibly?) hemming traditional post-digital electro crunch and occasional Panasonic-like brown noise filtered percussion. Songs tend to loop on a bit without any real development per se but, well, if that's the only thing to comment on we're doing quite OK. Moderately fresh and surprisingly dancefloor ready given the climate. Sharp." -- Hrvatski.
