This reminds me a lot of what I was listening to (on ancient phonograph) in the late 70’s (!) as a pip squeak, primarily Jean Michel Jarre except that the Frenchman didn’t tend to pepper his sonic devices with vocals. Teeel is Jim Smith’s new creation from the current century and with his LP ‘Amulet’ out on Moongadget next month ‘Triangle Waves’ is the perfect introduction. The bulging synths are one thing but when combined with Smith’s digitised persona it makes for a heady mix. 30 years ago they were telling us we’d be living in neon cities in the sky and while we haven’t quite got there at least we have the music for the occasion.
