Dunno what I did, fuck this has fucked up my LAFMS sequence!?
See it as a repost from the olden days, with an updated link.
Olaf has got his hands on a ppg wave 2.2, an early digital synthesiser,
but had good old analogue filtering; so those harsh digital sounds are
less jarring on the old lug holes. Also the sound is augmented by the
classic Roland Jupiter 8 polysynth, later to be shamed forever by The
Human League (mk.2) in their many hits.
A cassette full of beautiful analogue warmth, with quite a few decent
tunes.Often straying very close to the dangerous waters of soundtrack
and library music, but still sticking to the traditions of 70's/80's
German electronic musik.
Dunno if the title refers to some kind of ambitious attempt at
Ethnological Forgery, previously attempted by CAN or not.Although,it
does sounds like an adequate version of the modern technological tribal
music, but without the mind killing jackboot beat that has stifled youth
dissent for the past 25 years. Honest electronic musik before it was
turned into the ultimate W.M.D (weapon of mass distraction).
Also, the best Symboter cassette.

More Tangerine Dream/Kraftwerk/soundtrack library music hybrid from
Symboter.
Crammed full of top of the range analogue beauty, from a treasure trove
of classic synthesizers in Symboter HQ; this release featuring
,predominantly, the Roland Jupiter 8. Lovely stuff.
A compilation of these early cassettes have now been released on Vinyl
On Demand. So if you want to hear this stuff in high definition, you
better get your Euro's out and nip over to the VOD website pronto,
before it sells out.

This is the weaker of the three cassettes I will be posting, but still
has an attractive period charm. Of course, the analogue instrumentation
sounds gorgeous, as always. There is a distinct Dusseldorf influence, as
well as the obvious hints of Tangerine Dream. Olaf obviously grew up
wanting to be Edgar Froese, but thankfully also absorbed plenty of La
Dusseldorf, Harmonia, and Kraftwerk, along the way.
The vocoder use is especially pleasing, new Generation, being a prime
example of who to subtly use this classic device.
Fans of anything on Colin Potter's Integrated Circuit Records will love
this.
