Brooklyn’s music scene is bulging with brilliance and one of the familiar faces who electrify the circuit is Pas Musique. Active since the 90s and known for his continual creative craft, Pas Musique enlightens the youth on 80s synth music. Mixed with avant-garde sentiments, Robert Pepper’s compositions carry the heaviest of vessels across the waves. The new album is on its way and this single comes with an instrumental for everyone’s listening enjoyment. Written with philosophy and metaphysics in mind, one could be forgiven for thinking he’s read one of my books. He probably hasn’t though. The track is in fact a tribute to a genuine figurehead of the scene, Fad Gadget or Frank Tovey. It was Fad Gadget who helped to kickstart Robert’s music journey all those years ago, and now with crowdsourcing helping to put lights at the end of a freshly built tunnel, this collage of video and ideas makes a unique sonic visual experience.
 
A slender bass kick opens the track with a dub effect tape loop that repeats the title of the track. Some dazzling tom toms begin to spell the groove as synthesiser sounds craft new areas of exploration in avenues unfamiliar to us all. A bouncy synth tone then takes over in a bass rendition, mimicking the rhythm instrument in bars of springy tonal percussion. More vocal sounds enter off-key and punk oriented, we seem drawn in by the homely and run of the mill timbre of the voice. It’s like one of our mates. He’s soon replaced by a fizzling guitar sound that sits high above the rest of the track, spiralling and vibrating in a magnetic uplift of half-melody. Surreal and loosely dream stitched, this track by Pas Musique is a truly independent sound that is rippling with intrigue and a strange moreishness.
