The Tone Science sub-label of DiN Records continues to explore the world of modular synthesizer music with this, the 9th release in the series!

‘Tone Science Module No.9 Theories & Conjectures’ continues the journey down the rabbit hole of possibilities and sound worlds inhabited by artists and musicians working in this ever fascinating and varied musical field.

Following the success and critical acclaim of the first eight Tone Science compilation albums, DiN label boss Ian Boddy has collated another nine tracks from musicians of varying backgrounds working in the realms of modular synthesis. As the Tone Science journey continues it never ceases to amaze just how varied and individualistic each musician’s work can be. Whilst the hardware is technologically based, each artist teases out a reflection of his or her own musical personality.

This volume kicks off with two pointillistic compositions from Loula Yorke and State Azure with intertwining sequencer patterns flowing and coiling around to create ever-changing soundscapes.
After this energetic start the next pair of tracks from Theda Electronic Music and Swansither enter calmer, ambient territory where careful sculpting of synthesiser voices creates room for expression and atmosphere.
The mid-point of the album sees Sulk Rooms take us into darker territory with a drone-based piece that slowly climbs from the undergrowth like some great creature arising from its slumber.
The next three tracks from Tomorrow The Cure, JacqNoise and Alex Ball are rhythmically based and showcase just how different the feel and energy of music made with modular synths can be with pure tones, deep bass and transient blips respectively. Finally Michael J. York leads us gently into the distance with a beautiful, shimmering cocoon of blissful sound to close out the album.

‘Tone Science-Module 9: Theories & Conjectures’ was released on 19th April 2024.

This release in limited to 500 worldwide copies!
