We wrote about new Synth wave crafter Arc Neon a while back. Rising from the ashes of Indie-Electro outfit Wolf And Yeti this London based producer has a knack for blending vintage synth sounds and samples from ‘80’s TV. News reports, adverts, you name it, Arc Neon will make a track out of it.
The man has just released a new EP, Wet Dreams, his début complete release. And an impressive début it is too. Kicking of with is standout track, Spring Break (Lisa’s Theme), a complex and intricate five minute epic . Whilst the track’s rich electronic tapestry and sense of dark drama never really mesh with teenage rabble rousing of the Spring Break news report samples, this doesn’t detract from what is a driving and emotionally resonant synth tune. There’s some insanely good riffs in this tune and a multi layered Italo style production that gets pitch perfect at times. On Riot the music and sampled subject matter gel a lot better. The report of prison riots plays well with the arpeggiated, almost old school EBM, bassline and switchblade lead lines. Also house within this package are the previously posted Beyond Our Control and synthetic sleaze-fest Looking For A Goddess. Arc Neon has laid down his manifesto here, and it’s one that will no doubt see him shoot to the top of the SynthWave scene.
