Artist Spotlight (April 13th, 2016) SCIENCE AND THE BEAT

Lovingly chosen as this week's spotlight artist:

Science and the Beat

Graciously ripped from their Facebook page:

Multi-instrumentalists Tasha Katrine and Rob Zilla have been carving out their creative vision since being introduced in their teens. The approach has been dexterous, mixing live shows with elaborate video and lighting installations – most notably as More Machine Than Man. As a fixture in the Goth Industrial scene, the pair was conscious of the expectations and rigid identity that develops with a long-term project. To keep those limitations from becoming self-imposed, the mission became letting creativity have free reign. Future Blue, then, sounds like actualization: two people growing into their cynicism and finding it to be just as potent as their youthful yearnings. Produced by Wade Alin (Christ Analogue, The Atomica Project) Future Blue pulsates with clean, taut synths that create something like a strop for the sharp and decisive use of guitar. For the subject matter, it is fitting that the title be just as evocative: blue as tranquil, hopeful and expansive? Or the hue we use to illustrate our woes?
