MAGNET knows a thing or two about good music, art and interesting people, so when Dengue Fever was asked to be guest editors, we all replied within minutes: ”Yes, please!” We have had our noses to the grindstone as of late because that’s what you need to do when you release your latest full-length studio album, The Deepest Lake, on your own label, Tuk Tuk Records. It’s a hell of a lot of work, and us sitting down and writing about subjects other than ourselves sounded like a great respite. So thank you, MAGNET. Enjoy the info, rants and inspirations. Who knows where they’ll take you …
Senon Williams: Secret Circuit is electronic music that bridges the gap between art and sound. His music is rooted in musicianship. Not just clicking buttons, but also playing keys and strumming strings. Mastermind Eddie Ruscha records his music in a warm magic light. Delve into visceral sounds and experimentation. One man’s view of a mass of electronics, twisted cables and buzzing speakers. Secret Circuit is always creating, changing, remixing and DJing. Often, he is rocking on a pile of synths in a tripped-out corner of the world. I don’t usually think of improvised sound when listening to music made by circuit boards, but when I am showering myself with Ruscha’s mystic wavelengths, I picture a man growing out of a dusty spaceship console surrounded by a geometrical light dance, creating as it comes, organic. Truly unique and daring, uncompromising music, pushing forward and holds classic simultaneously. The world would be a harder place without Secret Circuit. I am going to pile into my space boat and live in the stratosphere.
