8-Bit Operators - Depeche Mode Tribute - Enjoy the Science [CD release date 6/10/14]
Exclusive advance listens: http://bit.ly/8bopdmprm    http://bit.ly/8boplay    http://www.8bitoperators.com     http://www.8bitops.com
With their internationally acclaimed series of tributes to Kraftwerk, The Beatles and Devo already established as benchmarks in the global scene, 8-Bit Operators return by popular demand, this time honoring the timeless synth-pop of Depeche Mode.
Curated by electronic music veteran Jeremy Kolosine, this inspired new collection entitled Enjoy The Science (June 10th release) features the world’s leading artists in the “chiptune” and “synthpunk” movements performing highly musical, lo-bit video-game hardware re-imaginings of 15 favorite Depeche Mode tracks, spanning the band’s incredible 30+ year career.
Showcasing the globe’s most inventive, influential and innovative Operatives of 8-bit arrangement, programming, application & hi-tech production, 8-Bit Operators collective is addicted to the sound character delivered by various micro-chips made iconic in the late 20th century (in Nintendos, Ataris, Gameboys, Commodore 64s, Speak & Spells, etc.), and when these devices are musically re-tooled, adapted, or even “circuit-bent”, brand-new creative options and sound palettes are invented.
This collection illustrates, joyously, the emotional versatility, intensity and fun of “chipmusic” especially when inspired by the rich melodies and thoughtful lyrics of Depeche Mode’s Martin Gore and former member Vince Clarke.
Tracklist:
01. Bacalao - But Not Tonight 02. Herbert Weixelbaum - Enjoy The Silence 03. GOTO80 - Boys Say Go 04. Matt Nida feat. Lisa Schumann - Policy of Truth 05.

8-BIT OPERATORS: Tribute to DEPECHE MODE: Enjoy The Science
Release date June 10th LISTEN to the PROMOMIX   HERE
 With their internationally acclaimed series of tributes to Kraftwerk, The Beatles and Devo already established as benchmarks in the global scene, 8-Bit Operators return by popular demand, this time honoring the timeless synth-pop of Depeche Mode.
Curated by electronic music veteran Jeremy Kolosine, this inspired new collection Enjoy The Science (June 10th release) features the world’s leading artists in the “chiptune” and “synthpunk” movements performing highly musical, lo-bit video-game hardware re-imaginings of 15 favorite Depeche Mode tracks, spanning the band’s incredible 30+ year career. Listen here for a full explanation of the 8-Bit music scene by Kolosine on NPR.
Showcasing the globe’s most inventive, influential and innovative Operatives of 8-bit arrangement, programming, application & hi-tech production, 8-Bit Operators collective is addicted to the sound character delivered by various micro-chips made iconic in the late 20th century (in Nintendos, Ataris, Gameboys, Commodore 64s, Speak & Spells, etc.), and when these devices are musically re-tooled, adapted, or even “circuit-bent”, brand-new creative options and sound palettes are invented.

The fourth in a highly acclaimed series of tribute albums by the world’s leading names in the ‘chiptune’ and ‘synth-punk’ scene. With tributes to Kraftwerk, The Beatles and Devo already under their belts, 8-Bit Operators return with 15 new tracks honoring the timeless synth-pop of Depeche Mode. Choosing tracks that span the band’s incredible 30+ year career, series curator Jeremy Kolosine once again delivers a masterful selection of the world’s most inventive and influential exponents of 8-bit arrangement, programming & production. Here the focus lies on the unique character of sound delivered by various “circuit-bent” & re-tooled micro-chips made iconic in the late 20th century. These were utilized by Nintendos, Ataris, Gameboys, Commodore 64s, Speak & Spells, etc, and this collection helps illustrate the versatile ‘chipmusic’ artists can create when also inspired by the rich melodies and thoughtful lyrics of Depeche Mode’s Martin Gore and former member Vince Clarke.

"Le voyage dans la cold-wave" SPECIAL EDITION JEREMY KOLOSINE from FUTURISK

http://www.darkitalia.it/radio-darkitalia.html
QUESTA SETTIMANA LA COLD WAVE SI TINGE DI SYNTH»>SPECIAL GUEST STAR JEREMY KOLOSINE FROM FUTURISK. Giovedì sceglierà la playlist Jeremy Kolosine. Chi è Jeremy Kolosine? Jeremy Kolosine, aka Ksine, was born in Hackney, East London, moved to South Florida in the 1970’s and is currently living in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. Jeremy is an electronic artist/producer/gearhead and is founder of electropunk pioneers Futurisk, 8-bit/micro-chipmusic vanguards 8-Bit Operators and electronic guitar band Shakespace. From 2003 thru 2011 he recorded as RECEPTORS. Exemplifying a longtime experimental hardware electro ideal, Receptors stood equipped with everything from vintage analog synths and treated guitars to lo-bit digital handheld synths (mostly Game Boy & Nintendo DS), occasional circuit-bent devices, and vocoded 12-bit stylophonic walkstations. The debut Receptors 7” EP “Controller Array” was released in 2005. Receptors performed at NYC’s legendary Blip Fest, CMJ and Bent Festivals, showcased at Austin, Texas’ SXSW Festival and Iceland’s Airwaves Fest, and in 2007 Jeremy Kolosine performed the first ever circuit-bent performance with a full symphony orchestra (The Roanoke Symphony). That same year the critically acclaimed ReceptorsMusic compilation “8-Bit Operators - The Music of Kraftwerk” was released on Astralwerks/EMI, and The DFA’s James Murphy commissioned Receptors to produce a set of unique Real ringtones for LCD Soundsystem’s “Sound Of Silver” album release. The ringtunes , which are re-interpretations of all 9 tracks on the hit album, were arranged and created in 8-bit fashion on the gameboy synth. In 2008 Receptors released 2 albums of tracks produced on the Nintendo DS, including the first full-length release by an artist on the Korg DS-10 titled “groKwork”. In 2009, Jeremy completed construction on “21st Century Retro-Futurists”, an ongoing audio/video installation for The Taubman Museum, and joined the Blip Fest Europe/ 8bitpeoples tour of Denmark and Poland (Era New Horizon Film Festival.) On 09/09/09 the Kolosine-curated 8-Bit Operators’ “WANNA HLD YR HANDHELD” Beatles Tribute was released, and is now available at http://8bitops.com/ Receptors closed out 2009 with the release of the “USER Deluxe EP” on the world-renowned chip-music label 8bitpeoples. In 2010, the 30th Anniversary vinyl 12inch of Futurisk’s “PLAYER PIANO LP” was released on Minimal Wave Records, and Receptors’ full-length SLEEPER CD was released on the Handheld Heroes label. http://receptorsmusic.com/ In 2011, Futurisk’s ” Lonely Streets Remixes” with remixed tracks by Chris Carter (Throbbing Gristle,Chris & Cosey), Tom Furse (The Horrors), Prince Language (DFA, Editions Disco) and Complexxion from the UK. http://minimalwave.com/artists/artist/futurisk On 12/12/2012 Receptors Music Inc released the 8-BIT OPERATORS’ DEVO Tribute: Crack That Chip! conceived/ compiled by Kolosine. In 2013, Jeremy Kolosine was added to Marty Thau’s legendary Red Star Records roster of artists (which includes work by Suicide, Blondie, John Cale, The Ramones, Richard Hell, Lola Dutronic and Dub Gabriel among many others.) Exclusive remixes of Futurisk and 8-Bit Operators were included on the “Variations” 2013 Red Star release. 2014 promises an increase in visibility and distribution of Kolosine’s Receptors Music Inc label, with the release of 8-Bit Operators’ Depeche Mode Tribute, “Enjoy The Science”, as well as the anticipated completion of a Jeremy Kolosine solo release.
