Two years in the making,
Future Ruins
,
Tom And His Computer
's debut album, will be released on
Trentemøller
's In My Room. As a 20-year veteran of the Copenhagen music scene,
Thomas Bertelsen
has been releasing music under the sobriquet of Tom And His Computer for five years, merging the newest technologies with the old, while squeezing fresh sounds out of equipment that's not only obsolete, sometimes it's barely functioning at all. "I switch back and forth between the digital and the analog worlds. I'll utilize old guitar pedals as well as the newest software," says
Thomas Bertelsen
, producer behind Tom And His Computer. "It's never about the gear, though, but rather finding that one little sound that can trigger an idea for an entire track."
Future Ruins
was also co-produced and mixed by Trentemøller. While previous offerings have taken listeners to the outer boundaries of what can be considered "electronic music," including nods to dark wave, dream pop, krautrock, and modern psych rock,
Future Ruins
presents those influences in a new way and represents a great leap forward for the Copenhagen based producer. The result is a genre-less collection of songs showcasing Tom's obsession with propelling sounds of the past into the present, and future, combining noise and edginess with his "
commitment to fresh ideas with a clear sense of melodies
," according to Clash Magazine. "My tastes are eclectic and I like to flirt with many different sub genres," says Tom. "The aim was to combine various styles while trying to maintain a common denominator," which committing to a full-length offered as an opportunity. Features
