' '
,: Building on an already illustrious career that has involved :,
: labels such as Morr Music, Ersatz Audio, and his own Suction :
:' Records imprint, TorontoÆs Solvent (Jason Amm) has completed ':
,: his most accomplished and compelling work yet. ItÆs been three :,
: years since 2001Æs Solvent City, and Solvent has been busy :
:' studying the science of synthesis, and hopes to reaffirm the ':
,: magic of synthesizer pop music, not as a half-baked and hollow :,
: trend, but as a form of high art. :
:' ':
,: Apples & Synthesizers is also SolventÆs most diverse collection :,
: to date. Four of the thirteen tracks have the new addition of :
:' vocals, carrying on in the tradition of the original new wave ':
,: masters, but clearly individual and contemporary in their :,
: execution. ôThink Like Usö has been described as Skinny Puppy :
:' gone booty, while ôFor Youö brings a depth of emotion that has ':
,: seldom been wrought from vocoders and synthesizers. Fans of :,
: SolventÆs earlier work wonÆt be disappointed either: Apples & :
:' Synthesizers is not drastic stylistic departure for Amm, but a ':
,: natural and timely progression, shifting the styles he explored :,
: on previous records to create a striking mix of joyous melodies, :
:' voltage controlled precision, and dark bass lines that swirl ':
,: about on the surface. The ubiquitous ôMy Radioö (which :,
: originally appeared on Tangent 2002: Disco Nouveau) is a perfect :
:' example of this formula, as the mournful vocal refrain gives ':
,: the song both a wistful undertone and an insanely catchy hook. :,
