AVA EP
“AVA EP” is the forthcoming EP from Dogsolitude_uk. This project is inspired by the analogue synthesiser works of Vangelis and Jarre, the minimal compositions of Philip Glass and retro-scifi film soundtracks.
IXION EP
Dogsolitude_uk’s “IXION EP” arose during a dark time of year, from experiments with glitches, static, high frequencies and granular synthesis. As production progressed it evolved a more conventional shape, eventually growing into the melancholy chimera of industrial/house/glitch you have before you.
“IXION EP” was released on June 20th, 2016
Verdant Equinox EP
Dogsolitude_uk’s “Verdant Equinox EP” grew from a personal experiment in electronic music composition started in the Summer of 2013 and ending in Summer 2014.
Combining fuzzy, distorted bass lines, mathematically-generated sound-textures, and influences from genres as diverse as chillout, 90’s ambient house, industrial, dubstep and jazz, this collection represents a selection of pieces produced by Dogsolitude_uk that explore the themes of Summer, technology, nature and spirit.
“Verdant Equinox EP” was released on Sunday 21st September: the Autumnal Equinox.
