Artist: Sistol
Title: On The Bright Side
Format: CD
Label: Halo Cyan/Phthalo

Rated: *****

Sistol is one of the projects (along with Luomo, Uusitalo, Conoco, Vladislav Delay, etc) of Sasu Ripatti and ON THE BRIGHT SIDE is his newest release under this moniker. The eight tracks of the CD show Sasu focusing on upbeat sincopated rhythms, anxious atmospheres (check also the cover which shows a gun made out of medicinal blisters and syringes) and minimal techno structures. Also melody has a big part on the Sistol’s musical scheme and even if repetition and sounds alternation is its core. In this way ON THE BRIGHT SIDE sounds more dj friendly (more than Sistol’s first album which has just been reissued always by Halo Cyan/Phthalo) and multifaceted.

How did you get in touch with those people and have you ever happened to feel you were [...]

Vladimir Hirsch

Classical influences, choirs and dark industrialism are the core of Vladimir’s music. Bombastic here and intimist there, it never sounds relaxed. Every work represents a step of the human race’s decay and the music is [...]
