Cassetter’s Imaginative Cyberpunk Style Takes A Turn Toward The Dark Side In “Memory Manipulation”

June 22, 2020

Artist News, Artist Press

Cassetter, Memory Manipulation

Cassetter’s imaginative cyberpunk style takes a turn toward the dark side on the detailed and bass-heavy new track, “Memory Manipulation.” The song’s robotic effects and steely sound design immerse listeners in a world of the future where reality is flexible and our memories are not always our own. “Memory Manipulation” is the latest single toward Cassetter’s upcoming full-length album and is out now from independent synthwave label FiXT Neon.

“Memory Manipulation” was inspired by the Blade Runner 2049 movie and Black Mirror series, which I’m fan of. The concept revolves around corrupt individuals using hi-tech equipment to manipulate human minds and achieve their goals. From a musical perspective, I wanted to make a heavy mid-tempo track in a cyberpunk style that conveys the theme I had in mind.

Direct takes Essenger’s “Downfall” And Transforms It Into A Stunning New Remix

June 19, 2020

Artist News

Essenger

Direct takes the brooding power of Essenger’s “Downfall” and transforms it into an atmospheric, low-key effort with stunning results on this brand new remix. Echoes of Essenger and Lexi Norton’s singing performances drift across Direct’s soundscape while glitchy new instrumentation spreads across the piece for a ghostly reimagining of the original.

After my first listen of After Dark, I was so inspired by the epic movie-like feeling of the record. When I was invited to remix “Downfall” I knew I had to maintain the epic feeling while adding my sonic twists. What I arrived at was something that could be played in the futuristic nightclub of my dreams.

Soul Extract’s “Carrier Signal” gets a hard-hitting update from Cliff Lin

June 12, 2020

Artist News, Artist Press

Carrier Signal, Cliff Lin, Remix, Soul Extract

Soul Extract’s “Carrier Signal” was a favorite with fans when it was released late last year. Now, the song gets a hard-hitting update from Cliff Lin on this brand new remix. Carefully balancing sledgehammer-like rhythms with lighter sections for a tense and varied composition, the song keeps the personality of the original while reimagining it in a powerful new style. The Cliff Lin remix of “Carrier Signal” is available now on all platforms from independent electronic rock label FiXT.

The song already has a nice heavy rocktronica feel, so I wanted to maintain that heavy feel but take it in a more hybrid direction, with additional orchestral, electronic, and percussion elements. I also wanted to add some more drama, with builds, breaks, and starts/stops, to give it a more epic cinematic feel, but with the song still being recognizable.

Cassetter Releases A Hook-Heavy Creation Led by Mari Kattman on “Nexus”

June 8, 2020

Artist News, Artist Press

Cassetter, Nexus

The journey to Cassetter’s upcoming full-length album Entropy continues with a hook-heavy creation led by Mari Kattman on “Nexus.” Kattman’s spirited vocal style joins in easily with the cyberpunk atmosphere of Cassetter’s songwriting for a track that is equal parts light and dark, focused and carefree.

My idea for the Nexus track was to mix cyberpunk vibes with some deep house elements. I wanted to build a contrast between melodic verse and a bass-oriented chorus. Mari fit very well into that concept, proving that she is a talented and versatile vocalist.
