Memento12 showcases some of the label's most daring works so far, ranging from
sparse soundscapes to elaborate actual song structures, always keeping focused
on the feeling and unique inspiration that are its distinctive trait. Gas'
"Nighthawk" starts off on a jazzy intro with soft pads and takes the listener
on a journey of drum rolls and delayed percussions. A crescendo of warm synths
balances the gloomy vocal that goes 'How does it feel when your heart grows
cold'. Stylish. Simone Ferrari's "Romantik" comes up with a minimal vibe made
of ticking sounds and clicks, with laid back synth stabs to top off the
kick-driven tune. For the right afterparty at sunrise. Acirne's "Circle of us"
is designed around a quirky funky bass line and crazy spectral sounds.
Atmospheric keyboards remind of early German electronic bands, and a growing
spaced-out arpeggio turns into a whirlwind of emotions. Another off-the-wall
track from Memento hottest girl. Blue Mondays' "Holes" sets an even higher
standard with its menacing intro, hand-picked bass guitar melody and a dark
80s-inspired singing which goes onto a break of feedback guitar sounds. Out of
the ordinary to say the least, it's a perfect blend of alternative electronic
and the darker side of synth-pop.
