Airplay!" 1 Live Radio Tigersushi presents Apollo Noir's EP "Bifurcation Towards Chaos" After his unexpected take on pop with the UFO hit « Twist Of Men » Feat. Jeanne Added, Apollo Noir presents a second extract from his upcoming second album. A venture into dancefloor territory under a heavy breakbeat / drum & bass influence. This could be the soundtrack of a Wipeout 2097 video game, a sci-fi chase scene, it rumbles, it crawls, it groans and explodes while providing Apollo Noir's peculiar melodic style. A new facet of the french producer, slowly unveiling the shades of his upcoming « Chaos ID » album. BIOGRAPHY After growing up in the middle of the deepest French countryside (one would say in the middle of nowhere), a place called « The Black Woods » in Auvergne, Apollo Noir got into music playing drums in various Hardcore Punk and Grind bands. Hardcore is always a good way of starting music, a bit like going to the conservatory for classical musicians. During all these years being a drummer, Apollo Noir listened to a lot of music, learning, digesting, forging a solid knowledge of indie music that will help him define his future sound. Eventually he came across a drum machine/ sequencer / synth made by Roland in the 90s called the MC909. A cheap machine used in a lot of Trance productions at that time. That was his entry point to making electronic music and how he started collecting synths obsessively. Almost an adult, he’s ready to start his own solo project that he will call Apollo Noir as a nod to his childhood ‘Black Woods’. His first album ‘A/N’ almost naturally comes to the ears of Tigersushi, the kind of music we love here, ambitious, emotional, challenging, genre-defying. For him this is a distortion of reality, where music and spirituality become one. Apollo’s music combines rawness, brutalism, minimalism and perfectionism in a very unique way. A few transformed voices haunt the record like a ghostly mass. There’s elements of Vangelis epic synths, Oneohtrix Point Never’s futuristic free forms or Sonic Youth dissonant noise, all made mostly from rearranged live takes recorded with a whole analog synth and drum machines set up. And yet it doesn’t sound vintage at all. This is a trip to a distant planet, both familiar and strange, a psychedelic and distorted utopia.
