Asheville, North Carolina Feb 28, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - Adam Strange, the elusive pop artist known for blending vintage ideas and contemporary sounds with math and nature, has unveiled a new persona, Phantom Strange, and their latest work "Future Nothing". The instrumental album, recorded entirely on analog tape using a plethora of vintage drum machines and synthesizers, is a stunning tribute to the golden era of electronic music.
But this is not just a nostalgia trip. "Future Nothing" is a bold exploration of the unknown, a journey through time and space that will take you to the far reaches of the universe. The album is Phantom Strange's vision of the future, a place where technology and humanity have merged into a seamless entity, where the boundaries between reality and imagination are blurred, and where anything is possible. This is an abstract painting made of sound.
The album's title track, "Future Nothing", sets the tone for the rest of the journey. It's a propulsive, cinematic piece that evokes an image of 1990s London blurred and blended into a cosmic landscape populated with drugged-out drummers seeking spiritual fulfillment in a world without hope. From there, Phantom Strange takes us on a wild ride through different moods and atmospheres, each track a unique sonic adventure.
"Future Nothing" is a testament to Phantom Strange's mastery of sound design and its ability to create immersive, otherworldly music. The vibe of these tracks is almost akin to world-building in story form. The vintage gear used to make the album gives it a warmth and character that is missing from much of today's digital productions. It's a reminder that the past still has a lot to teach us about the future.
Phantom Strange's back story is as mysterious as their music. Rumors say they are either an AI who broke free from his creators or they drive the forklift at Moog Music’s North Carolina synthesizer factory. There was recently an ongoing argument on Discord and Reddit about whether or not Phantom Strange’s music was written by A.I. that forced the artist to eventually comment that they are, in fact, a human. Whatever the truth may be, one thing is certain: "Future Nothing" is a musical journey you don't want to miss.
"Future Nothing" is available now on all major streaming platforms.
