Музыка и песни Damage, Benjamin / Damage, Benjamin на CD

The Welsh producer is probably best known for his full-length collaboration with Doc Daneeka earlier this year, They! Live. That album presented a hybrid of UK bass-style house and techno, which we described in a review as "stylishly minimal beats rendered in attractive curves and clear, soft tones." Damage has also been active as a solo artist, however, releasing tracks on Ten Thousand Yen as well as a solo single on 50 Weapons in October. As it turns out, that single was a taster for his full-length on the same label, which features "Swarm" along with nine previously unreleased tracks. The album sees Damage further exploring established sound, fusing techno-influenced beats with prominent atmospherics and plenty of melody. Record Label: 50 Weapons Style: Electronic

Heliosphere’ is a sonic sci-fi techno album reminiscent not just of early Plaid, Black Dog Productions, Boards of Canada or Luke Slater´s 7th Plain project, but also dancefloor classics by the likes of Surgeon, Regis, Dave Clarke or Jeff Mills. ‘Heliosphere’ brings to mind the flavor of 1994 without losing the sense that we’re into 2013 as of now. ‘Heliosphere’ is equally straight and beautiful. Ear-catching murkier numbers morph into merciless bangers whilst Damage also creates beautiful soundscapes ranging from melodic to dark, rough and sweet, all at once. Basically ‘Heliosphere’ is dance music with conviction. Record Label: 50 Weapons Style: Electronic
