CAST YOUR MIND BACK, CAN YOU REMEMBER A GLORIOUS SEPIA-INFUSED ERA WHERE PEOPLE COMMUNICATED, I MEAN REALLY COMMUNICATED; PRE-EMAIL, PRE-ROLODEX, PRE-ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL. RELATIONSHIPS IMPLIED A TACTILE LEVEL OF CARE, THAT WARMING GLINT IN THE EYE, TIP OF THE HAT AND ROBUST HANDSHAKE GAVE CONFIDENCE - A TIME WHEN LASTING FRIENDSHIPS WERE CREATED THROUGH BELIEF IN EACH OTHERS ABILITIES AND ABOVE ALL TRUST.
LIFE ITSELF HAD AN ENIGMATIC SOUNDTRACK BACK THEN, IT WASN'T FOCUSED ON AMBIENT SOUNDSCAPES & ETHEREAL COMPOSITIONS, NOR WAS IT FOCUSED ON GRANULAR SYNTHESIS, FIELD RECORDINGS AND FOUND SOUND. THE MUSIC WHETHER PLUCKED OR SUNG, GAELIC OR AFRICAN, WAS A COHESIVE FORCE. IT ENHANCED INDIGENOUS CULTURE, AMALGAMATED WORKERS AND PROVIDED A MUCH NEEDED RELEASE FROM ADVERSITY AND HARDSHIP, SETTING LIFE ITSELF FREE. IT WASN'T COMMERCIALISED, MONETISED, GENRE FOCUSED OR FUELLED BY POPULAR CULTURE, THERE WAS A GRITTY AND AUTHENTIC SONIC PALETTE, DRIVEN BY EXPERIENCES, CHALLENGING ENVIRONMENTS AND RAW EMOTION.
SYNCSMITH WAS HAND-FORGED IN THIS INDUSTRIAL EPOCH, A STEAM-DRIVEN TIME WHEN MASTER CRAFTSMEN AND THE BRUNELS OF THIS WORLD WERE PASSIONATE ABOUT THEIR CRAFT AND THROUGH HARD WORK AND DETERMINATION, GALVANISED A REVOLUTION. THE CARBON STAINED, MECHANICALLY SCARRED HANDS OF THE "SMITH" SIGNIFIED YEARS OF EDUCATION, EXPERIENCE AND DISCRETELY WITHHELD LAYERS OF LAMENT IN ATTAINING MASTER STATUS OF THEIR CHOSEN DISCIPLINE. ABOVE ALL, THESE ARTIFICERS WERE GENUINE FOLK, GREAT LISTENERS AND INFLUENCERS OF SOCIETY WHO ADVISED AND GUIDED, REFUSING SELF-GRATIFYING ADORNMENT AS HELPING OTHERS AND MAKING A DIFFERENCE WAS ALWAYS WAY MORE SIGNIFICANT.
THESE VALUES SHAPED AND CONTINUE TO FUEL THE VERY ARTERIES OF SYNCSMITH, WHILST FUTURISTIC IN CONTENT WE ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT ETHICS, VALUES AND TRADITIONAL DELIVERY. WE'RE HERE TO HELP - TO EASE YOUR AUDIO ACQUISITION PROCESS, TO PROVIDE YOU WITH THE FINEST AVANT-GARDE SOUNDS FOR YOUR PROJECTS AND TO GIVE YOU UNPARALLELED ACCESS TO GROUND BREAKING EXPERIMENTAL ARTISTS AND COMPOSERS.
