about

"Finally a new offering from vintage synth maestro Steve Webster's Higamos Hogamos offshoot project Spacerocks!

Actually, IS it new? It sounds like it was recorded by Edgar Froese or Chris & Cosey using absolutely no modern equipment whatsoever. It's hard to find something amongst these four tracks that sounds remotely contemporary, let alone something "cutting edge" that would make it stand out from the kosmische electronic space rock and electro synth-pop coming out in the late 70s/early 80s let alone what we're drowned in today.

But is that a bad thing? NO!

Because it's musically great...at times even epic. Some pieces so steeped in dreamy drama and dark depth that I'd go as far as saying outre French cosmic pioneers Heldon would have been proud to have created this. At the opposite end 'A Study in Scarlet' reminds me of Chris & Cosey's early work.

Apparently Webster has an eBay addiction for early 80s audio gear and it would seem this yields some most refreshing results. There is definitely an appeal in hearing the sounds of these highly unfashionable and cheap harmonisers and reverbs that he's so fond of using....mainly because no one else is using them.

If I were you, I would just dive right on in and let the "kosmische" teleport you away."

(Someone, Earth, 2020)

Higamos Hogamos / Spacerocks has had support from the sadly departed Andrew Weatherall, JD Twitch (Optimo), Trevor Jackson, Dompteur Mooner, Robi Insinna/Headman and many more
