Description

Electronic duo Soft Error release their debut album Mechanism through Village Green. Recorded at Valgeir Sigurðssons renowned Greenhouse Studio in Reykjavik, Iceland, Mechanism is available on CD, vinyl and digital download.

A largely electronic pairing, Soft Error are otherwise known as Tim and Rupert, both of whom have musical backgrounds in dance music / DJ culture and composition for film, theatre and TV respectively. Soft Error, however, represents a thrilling new artistic beginning rather than being simply another musical project.

The album offers a fresh and singular brand of musical intrigue by reaching back and forward simultaneously, drawing from the innovative, propulsive thrum of 1970s Krautrock and the grainy textures and tonalities of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop on one hand and the symphonic, futuristic soundscapes of composers like Cliff Martinez, John Carpenter and Jon Hopkins on the other.

LP includes digital download code.
