Some discussion of Latvia on our Slack channel (no, really) prompted some digging into that corner of the world’s scene, and the discovery of the Sturm label which has been releasing dark electronic out of Riga for a full quarter of a century. We’re digging the chill and spacey approach Bob Data takes on his The Stars Are Fire LP, pointing to Cryo and Kraftwerk’s darkly symphonic and cinematic momemnts. (I DIE YOU DIE, Tracks November 16th, 2020)
