about

Black Tempest Aka Stephen Bradbury is a one man synth army. We caught a performance of his at Supernormal Festival 2010 and his pastoral, methodic workouts made a big impression.
A copy of his album 'Ex Proxima' was passed on which has such a classic British synth sound it feels like it could have been recorded 30 years ago somwhere deep in the British countryside.
For Arcana, he has stripped it down to the basics, no waste Chris Carter-esque drum sound provided by the lovely Vermona DRM-1 and perfectly controlled analogue synth modulations.The pastoral vibes remain albeit from what feels a colder, darker place.
