The Debut Artist Album From Michael Cassette

20:01 - October 24, 2010

by davehart

He's been a regular on the Anjunabeats label for quite a while now and has a distinctive style of music that drops along the progressive house and trance route. He's not had an artist album so far but plenty of successful single releases to date. Now, I do say 'He' but there are two producers behind this alias in the form of Erkka Henrikki Lempiäinen & Matti Tapio Heininen. They have worked under a few aliases other than but without a doubt Michael Cassette is the one which they have had the most success. Just have a think back and remind yourself of tracks like 'Shadows Movement' and 'Kilimanjaro'’, a track which dropped on Anjunabeat's more house orientated label 'Anjunadeep'.

The news this week is that their debut artist album will be out at the end of November called 'Temporarity' and draws a very 80's influence from a producer who's style draws a huge amount of inspiration from. There is a selection of new tracks for the album in here as well as their best hits to date.

Michael Cassette is the infamous 80s-inspired electronic producer who chooses anonymity over publicity. He seeks refuge in his studio, basking in the bright, neon sparkle of retro synths and soaking up the warm embrace of classic analogue grooves.

Since emerging with ‘Shadow’s Movement’ in 2007, he has become a revered force amongst electronic music lovers. DJs like Eric Prydz, James Zabiela, Laurent Garnier and SOS have all lauded his unique ability to transform past musical memories into moments of contemporary club magic. Disco blogs and dance music bibles (Mixmag, DJ magazine and iDJ) have given him glowing reviews, while Anjunadeep continue to celebrate him as their most unique and promising studio talent.

Both reassuringly familiar and assuredly fresh, Michael Cassette’s ‘Temporarity’ is the perfect blend of uplifting 80s sounds and ultra-clean production sensibilities. A complete and cohesive journey, it begins on the progressive cosmic boogie of ‘My Name Is Michael Cassette’ before sweeping into the familiar synth-disco bliss of ‘Shadows Movement’.

A cover of Miami Vice’s iconic soundtrack ‘Crockett’s Theme’ is like a smooth, sugary shot of Floridian sunshine to the ear, while vocal moments like ‘Through The Windows’ and ‘Nevermore’ touch on the classic 80s tradition of classy synth-pop.

There are progressive club sounds found in the bittersweet glow of ‘Magneta Sunset’, the uplifting ‘Zeppelin’ and the hypnotic flutters of ‘Kilimanjaro’, while forthcoming single ‘Ghost In The Machine’ – released in November alongside a Spirit Catcher remix – is another Michael Cassette classic in the making. Showing off the producer’s versatility, the album closes with the sombre Tangerine Dream-esque electronica of the emotive ‘Funeralia - Farewell To David’.

It does look a very inviting album and anyone with a long love for that 80's sound should no doubt be chomping at the bit to get hold of this one. The remake of 'Crockett's Theme' looks very interesting as its a classic piece of 80's music that everybody recognises, just what the Michael Cassette version will have in store remains a mystery at the moment. I would think a blend of his current style but keeping in tone with the classic 80's feel of the original.
