***Dark Entries is proud to release the debut EP Vehicle from San Francisco synth trio INHALT. For the purposes of this recording, Inhalt are MATIA SIMOVICH, BRYAN GIBBS and PHILIP WINIGER. Bryan and Matia both met formerly working at Asphodel Studios/Records and Recombinant Media Labs. The band operates as a production team out of their own multimedia recording studio called The Bunker. Matia used to live in London and attended the World Unknown parties. Inhalt eventually contributed a song on a split 12" for the World Unknown record label in December 2011. On the Vehicle EP many of the analogue synthesizers and drum machines Inhalt collects were used: Juno 60, Roland Jupiter 6, Roland TR 808. The powerful synth leads are influenced by Moroder and Jarre. The A-side features two vocal tracks "Vehicle" and "Walking on Glass," while the B-side showcases the instrumental versions "Fahrzeug" and "Hart's Theme." The A-side is heavily indebted to ‘80s dark synth tracks and use very dense production, big snares and powerful German vocals. On the B-side both instrumental tracks also work as Belgian New Beat-style jams when slowed down from 45rpm to 33rpm and pitched up +8. All tracks were written, produced and mixed by the band at The Bunker Studio, San Francisco, California between 2009 and 2011. Everything was recorded to a 24 track 2 inch reel to reel tape machine and mixed down to a 2 track 1/4 inch tape. The tracks were then mastered by Paul Lavigne in London, England at Walls of Sound Mastering. All songs have been EQed for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy. Each LP includes a fold-out double-sided insert with photos and lyrics.
