At Last the iPhone is put some positive use! Here is the Xmas Single by Wharf99 , a rather funky taster for the Forthcoming album, "The Shape of Synths To Come". More analogue warmth, and electronic bubble baths, with these imaginary cult TV themes from a forgotten future.
Track Listing:
1/ "Theme From The New Persauders (Pilot Version)" (MP3)
2/ "Grand Theme (Demo)" (MP3)

This year has seen a flurry of activity by wharf99, culminating in the release of
the “Pulse E.P”: http://wharf99.bandcamp.com/album/pulse-ep
This 4-track E.P (plus a 5th bonus “hidden” track with the full download)
features remixes and edits of the track “Pulse” to be included on the album,
“The Shapes Of Synths To Come”, scheduled for an early 2012 release in
conjunction with Year Zero Records. The E.P. also includes an exclusive B-side,
“Dark Wave (Dubcycle Drum Mix)” which was long-listed for the recent
Beep Filtered competition on SoundCloud.
Earlier in the year, ABC Radio National’s “Sound Quality”
(http://www.abc.net.au/rn/soundquality) featured the single, “36 Years”, which
represented something of a shift in style by this independent artist who has
previously dabbled in ambient, soundtrack, indie and electronic sounds and
textures.
Based in Melbourne, wharf99 has been assembling self-produced home
recordings for the past few years, taking advantage of the benefits of DAW
software and the deluge of mobile phone apps that make it so much more
convenient to be a DIY musician. Like the forthcoming album, the “Pulse EP”
features music created, recorded and processed in various iPhone apps, such
as NLog MIDI Synth, ShapeSynth, Argon, Nano Studio, Funkbox, Hokusai,
SunrizerXS, etc.
