v.l.a.d. - xiringuitos perdido (laboratory instinct)

v.l.a.d.'s music emerges from the death of new wave and electro body music. and yeah it really seems that its inspired from 80's acts like human league, new order or fad gadget. but v.l.a.d.'s history is more complicated than just copying 80s music today. his influences go back to late eighties taking hardcore culture, clutching his guitar and setting on a solitary trip. his early music was hardly influenced by delirious groups like obituary, mr bungle or suffocation, but the only mark he preserved from that period was the hairstyle. in 1996 he quit playing guitars and started working on a sampler in his own built studio set up in store selling toys, comics and other artifacts of pop culture. so his music is getting dimensions of the 80's sounds and video games using all those synths he lay his hands on. his metal roots sometimes emerge through distorted sounds and drilled rhythms typical for german drum n bass acts. more electro oriented from previous laboratory instinct releases (but still around here) which also means more contemporary and fashionable oriented in today's complete 80's electro/electro pop revival. plus somewhere around interests of labels like artifact, angstrom and warp. short, hard, intense and interesting.
