About
We are Shadow Sync, an Italian leading Techno team, and we are happy to welcome you on the web-site of KRD, our newly created label.
We are into Techno since the early 90s and grew up listening to the music of some great artists like Jeff Mills etc. We decided to set up our own label because we felt the need to express some musical ideas we were developing over the last years. Being really passionate about music we are interested in its technological aspects and we like to integrate in our creation the most recent evolutions: an extended palette of tools may offer more possibilities and we like to experiment with all tools we can find.
This led us to a quite original workflow, were old techniques and gear meet more modern devices, were instruments are used in a non-conventional manner or they are modified or even self-built. Of course we like computers but we still think we can be more creative, obtain better results and have more fun using real hardware instruments, mixing through a real console and printing to tape.
Music is made of sound, it is its primal and essential element: that’s why we focus on the sound, designing every single patch we use and experimenting on till we feel pleased with the result. We have a composite background which evolved over the years but among our disparate influences Detroit Techno plays a seminal role: we feel continously inspired by those masterpieces but we don’t misunderstand our roots with our vision.
We go our own way in music, we pay no attention to trends or cutting-edge beats, we just want to deliver solid, soulful music.
