Cosmic Sound-Purple Melody

I’m loving everything about this next artist and without Dwight over at the label Crash Symbols I wouldn’t have been able to have this great album on my laptop. If you aren’t familiar with CS then you certainly should be. They’ve signed a number of talented bands and since I haven’t heard of most of them I was introduced to tons of great new music. Anyways, a few days ago I found VHS Vision in my inbox and after a few plays I gained one of the top releases to hit my ears this month. The EP is from Stephen Farris, a producer out of Texas who now makes music under his own name but at the time went by Cosmic Sound. Let me get to the point which is VHS Visions is a nine track adventure through synth heaven and if you can’t take my word for it, Com Truise even gave it a thumbs up. “Purple Melody” just slightly touches on the fact that Farris definitely knows his way around a synthesizer and has a knack for blending together retro, gleaming sounds with equally stunning atmospheres. You can stream the EP over at bandcamp or soundcloud but I’d suggest while you’re on bandcamp that you check out some of the other artists that Crash Symbols has to offer.
