So I was nominated for "best electronic artist" or some shit like that for the sacramento music awards...here's the blurb from the sacramento news & review:



"Brandon Tallent is electronica artist Resynthesize. "I definitely love the moment when working on a track starts to coalesce and you know your'e onto something," he explains of making electronic music, a process that many music lovers vaguely comprehend. Regardless, listeners dig the end result: more than 20,000 people downloaded the free version of Resynthesize's 2006 release, Heart and Soul Direct, a collection of sweet IDM beats. His '07 follow-up, Handprints, upped the ante with sick, decayed backbeats and smooth synth highs to create awesome breakbeat atmosphere, like on "C4 Crash." I've only heard one track of '08's The Green Wall EP, but it's straight techo-dance is dope. Find out more at www.myspace.com/resynthesize1."

You can vote for me here, and voting would be MUCH appreciated!

A special mix I did for memekast.com was released last night.  All original tracks, a few of which are unreleased.

For our final episode of 2007, we pick up where Genji left off last month; with Sacramento's Resynthesize! Nah, we didn't plan it - we're just tapped in like that.

A founding member of the Escape Artists crew (along with Rhedcerulean, Phokus, Psylence, and recent memekast guest SeventhSwami), Resynthesize currently has two LPs and one remix album under his belt. His debut LP, Heart and Soul Direct, was released on Experimedia in 2006, with a remix collection appearing on the same label in 2007. His latest LP release is entitled Handprints, and is available from Addictech.

For the memekast he concocts a psychedelic blend of breaks, electro, and dubstep, all original productions and remixes. Keep an eye out for his forthcoming EP, The Green Wall, due to drop in January.

I recorded the DJ set I played at the annual stilldream campout this weekend.  The whole weekend was a lot of fun and I got to meet a shitload of cool people so cheers to everyone who made it out.  I mainly focused on dubstep and techno with this one.  Hope you enjoy this set and if anyone wants to book me for shows get in touch :)

Handprints LP released!

My latest CD (I guess LP is a more accurate description since it's available via download) Handprints was put online last night.  After releasing two full length albums for free, I decided to have a go at actually selling this one.  To preview and purchase, you can go to http://resynthesize.addictech.com.  They have 2 minute clips of every track, and you can buy individual tracks or the whole album in one go.  If you have the space/bandwidth, I would highly recommend grabbing the FLAC version because it is true CD quality and will sound how I intended it to.  There are also a few songs from the album on my myspace player. 

The album has a mix of breaks, techno, and IDM.  Thanks to Sal & Steve for the awesome artwork, and Lindsey G for connecting me with addictech.  And thanks to anyone else who has taken the time to download any of my music.  Oh one more thing, if you know of any college/net radio or reviewers who'd be interesting in taking a listen, hit me up and I can mail them a free CD.

cheers
brandon / resynthesize

My goal for this was to get my favorite producer friends to each remix a track and re-release the whole thing again. It took awhile to get everything sorted out but it's ready and I'm really happy with the result.  Here's the final tracklisting:

1. Warm Me Up (Secret Decoder's cryogenic reconstitution remix)
2. Carnal Incarnate (Phortran remix)
3. Supersynth (QU One remix)
4. My Friend T3 (Mrs Jynx's friend remix)
5. The Trials and Tribulations (Yoko Solo remix)
6. Out of the Circle Again (Audiovoid's discrungebug remix)
7. Singular Event (Chimp Logic's suspension remix)
8. Clicky Clicky (Seventh Swami remix)
9. Organ Donor (Headphone Science remix)
10. Thinking Through Space (Dissolved E.M.I. remix)
11. Latenight Hype (Mercury Effect remix)

These are all dope producers and it'd do you well to google any one of them to hear more of their stuff.  Thanks to everyone who contributed a track and a special thanks to headphone science for releasing it through ivdt. 

Sometime in December or January the heart and soul direct remixes album will be released, featuring remixes by Dissolved, Mrs Jynx, Yoko Solo, Box, Mercury Effect, Q U One, Secret Decoder, Silo Romano, and possibly others.  Stay tuned...

In other news I am steadily making progress on my next album.  I hope to have it finished and released around June or July of 07.
