Horizon Music releases Syndromeda CD, "Mythical Pursuit"
Syndromeda (www.syndromeda.be) is the pseudonym of a Belgian musician named Danny Budts. He has released several CD's over the years on various labels in Europe and the UK, and his latest, entitled "Mythical Pursuit" is now available from Horizon Music. This is an enhanced CD with a PDF storyline by Matt Howarth (www.matthowarth.com) that can be viewed on your computer, provided that you have Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.0. Matt also did the artwork on the disc.
Danny Budts' music contains influences from several German synthesists, most notably Tangerine Dream and Klaus Schulze. But there is a touch of originality to his sequencer rhythms combined with dense atmospherics that makes him stand out.
The cost of the CD is $12 plus shipping.
