Artifact I by Anything Box
This is real electronic music recorded in the 1980s. This is what the 80's really sounded like when you recorded at home, without the technology. This is not trying to sound retro. It is a product of time displacement,
I wanted these early works to be heard as what they are: Recordings made during my transition from one life I had, to the one where I became who I managed to be.
A curated view, not a mere mashup. So I chose the reel that had the most of a shared experience. So yes, there are songs missing. You will have them eventually, I promise.
But I would love to think that this is one album you could put on and travel with, and not be ‘in the mood’ to skip over my ‘Reverb Idea #12’. Unless it was meant to be of course.
The release comes with a little book and a video of how I used to "live mix" on my ESQ

Whatever you think you know about Abox throw it out. Abox is not another poptart. Abox is not going to conform to whatever is in, what labels want, what the media likes to pander, or any such thing. This is an individualistic art synth expressive surrealist AF form of end pop. Yes. End. Pop.
But I do like to make you smile. The next time you read this bio it will be gone. Time shifts. Always.
