So, where were we? Last time on MANTIS Radio we celebrated our 3rd year of broadcasting, with a run down of the 3 most downloaded shows for the past year. You can grab that full archive here (http://darkfloor.co.uk/mantis-062-the-3rd-anniversary-show/), and see the top 10 most popular shows.
Coming up this week I’m very happy to present Ventolyn & Becotyde.
the SHOWCASE
Ventolyn & Becotyde aka Rubble Digits is a young man from the rainy city of Galway Ireland. Originally a drummer, he started creating tracks in early 2008, highly influenced by the music he was surrounded by growing up. To date, he has made all his productions available for free, 2 albums and an EP, which have been released on netlabels: Section 27, Pavillion 36, Stasis Records, Engine Of Saturation, Bumpfoot, Ideation and the label he founded, Alkalinear.
His music is meticulously constructed detailed sound. Part sound design, part dancefloor, all good. The music is both abstract and challenging and yet accessible and beautiful at the same time. Generally speaking his sound could be classed as IDM, but that is doing V&B a disservice, as his music encompasses a range of styles and disciplines.
Making music is the only way I can happily and accurately express myself.
Rather than a quest for originality, my interest lies in creating music that means something to me personally, which is very much down to the sounds I have been submersed in since I was young…. I’m all about the nostalgia.
