about

Retro analog synth music somewhat in the vein of "живое радио" ("Live Radio" Parts I and II) from a year ago but with a bit less edge, a bit more groove, and of course without the Russian themed broadcasts.

Continuing to stretch the range of Downscope productions, Vectors & Planes - The Analog Chronicles of Downscope Part One is both a conjuring up of influences from my youth as well as some more contemporary retro synth acts like Pye Corner Audio and most recently a production from Milieu Music. Get some headphones on and ride the waves.

THE SUNDAY EXPERIENCE review:
"Tripped across by sheer accident on a recent Bandcamp nosey, we were happy to encounter Downscope, been a while since we last heard anything from Rimas Campe, ‘i am the passenger’ attracting our attention, a track pulled from his latest set ‘Vectors and Planes – the analogue chronicles of downscope – part 1’. A cool wave chill pill that in truth, wouldn’t look out of place on such noteworthy and desirable sound houses as Polytechnic Youth, Spun out of Control and Castles in Space, its icy crystalline bedded upon a pulsing motorik grooving late 70’s / early 80’s time stamping levered with a distinctive VHS styled bleak beauty. Elsewhere and also worthy of a patient peek, ‘intersections in space’ again teased with an 80’s seasoning, seductively shimmers attractively courted by a minimalist nocturnal ghosted with a deft reflective shelling."
