Album Description
Mysterymen were born in 2001 out of the industrial North East of England, and set up their studio on the banks of the river Tyne. Soon being hailed as the new techno-opera-futurists, they are well versed in producing accomplished and unusual electro. Mysterymen have transcended from a twisted personal setting. Comprising the industrial landscape but giving way to the romance lying there in-between, it leaves pretty much of the debut out of the field of comparable producers. To no surprise the tracks inhale the congeniality of analogue synthesizers, drum machines and vocoders, all synchronised by a trusty Atari computer.
Their debut album Everything but an Answer on Disko B, features a compact diversity of tracks such as Fast Bitches, with its trashy noise beats and ominous Atari vocals, to the warm melodic beauty of Sleepy Elvis. In most of the cases of the instrumental compositions they take up the fight with death disco, but are way ahead of big-city-packed aimlessness, enjoying the advantages of post-twenism. Ploink takes you out for an escape-flight into almost fairy-tale coloured green leaving you awaking on top of a carbon-black hill with the broken beats of a vapour trail writing: `Is it real?` Mysterymen wont leave you without a helping hand and offer warmth in brutality. They show you both sides: the imaginative, but into the face-truth, the escapism and the dirt. But hey, thats how it is up in the industrial North.
