SYNAPTIC VOYAGER is a duo that also performs under the aliases EDGE OF INFINITY and ILLUMINATOR. With melodic basslines and beats that are inorganic yet warm, and shimmering synth phrases—a modern take on classic machine soul with a contemporary edge. The title track, “Spiritual Reflection” (sample 1), also features a remix by label owner GRAHAM WILSON (aka SPIRITUAL REVISION), who has crafted a clean, techy bottom groove. Other tracks include “Abstract Notions” (sample 2), which paints a world of ennui through repetitive synth textures built on mysterious chord progressions. This release marks the meeting of inspiration drawn from Detroit’s tradition with Sheffield-style machine-driven production. (Original Japanese text by Akie)
