(((S))), the enigmatic and anonymous one-man band from the chilly streets of Denmark's capital, known for his ability to seamlessly blend genres and eras, is back with an unexpected gift for his devoted fans and anyone seeking something fresh in the retro-music scene. Often referred to as the "chameleon of retro-music", (((S))) is making waves once again.
In 2008, (((S))) released the haunting track "Ghost In The Snow" exclusively as part of the free download compilation Howly Night, curated by French netlabel Zorch Factory Records. Now, while revisiting past playlists, (((S))) had the inspired idea to resurrect this track alongside other remixes from his first three albums - Ghost, Phantom, and The Moon Is My Sun - giving these songs a new lease on life.
The result? A carefully curated collection of tracks that delve into the atmospheric realms of synth-wave. Fans of classic wave music will recognize the familiar, hypnotic blend of undulating basslines, steady drum beats, shimmering guitars, and lush, elegiac synths - evoking the spirit of the early New Order. As a bonus, this release also includes nine remixes crafted by experimental Danish artists, adding fresh and unexpected layers to (((S)))'s sonic world.
This release promises to take listeners on a nostalgic yet innovative journey through soundscapes that pay homage to the past while looking toward the future. Whether you're a longtime fan or a curious new listener, this is one collection you won't want to miss.
Ghost In The Snow (Remixes) will be released on 22 November via the German label Aenaos Records. Some of the tracks are already available for your listening pleasure. Link
