The electronica music project known as
Stark Sound Lab (SSL) has released its latest EP album, “New Day.”
The record contains five original tracks for a total listening time
of about 15 minutes. It has been proudly published on the Stark
Records independent music label without the direction of the
corporate music industry. Postmodern, imaginative and pulsing with
sonic color, “New Day” from Stark Sound Lab is a strikingly
inventive release to round out Q4 2016.
Stark Sound Lab, which began recording
its brand of far-out sound exploration in San Francisco in 1968,
cites as main artistic influences the Residents, Bob Moog, Walter
(Wendy) Carlos, Vangelis, Dick Hyman, and Hans Zimmer. This
illustrious roster gives an idea of the high-caliber musical taste of
Stark Sound Lab, but the general style and groove of SSL remains
unique, even by the standards of the unbounded
experimental-electronic genre.
Much of Stark Sound's singular tone
comes from the specific selection of instruments involved.
Of this Stark Sound Lab writes, “With
each new day comes new challenges. 'New Day' is a collection of
experimental recordings inspired by these challenges. [It was]
recorded using a variety of Moog synthesizers from Minimoog Voyager
and Model D to Modular.”
Stark Sound Lab has been described as
“creating New Age, minimalist and experimental sound designs that
invoke impressionistic and expressionistic experiences. Each
soundscape is crafted so what you hear becomes illusory, with some
sounds appearing to be inches from you, several feet away or far in
the distance, while others emanate from directions that are virtually
inexplicable.”
The true effect of SSL is in the
experience of listening to “New Day” firsthand. Luckily, the “New
Day” EP from Stark Sound Lab is already available from its official
website (link provided below) or from over 700 quality digital music
stores online worldwide beginning 10 December 2016. Get in early,
electronica and Moog fans.
