Post Description
Rene Splinter, born on December 1968 in The Hague, The Netherlands, started building up his electronic music studio since 1986 and created several soundscapes and tracks heavily inspired by the German electronic rock genre (Berlin School) of the early eighties. In 1989, he recorded his first album called "Almery". The album was released on cassette and featured melodic analog music. Since then, many more tracks were recorded, but never released.
Productivity ended almost completely at late nineties and was picked up again in 2006, when Rene, who now lives in Rotterdam city, decided to continue as an electronic musician after a long period of inactivity. He started to work on his new studio and private label Studio35D, seriously working on new material. "Almery" was remastered and reissued in 2008. An introduction album called "Dreaming Angels", containing both recent material, as well as recovered earlier work, also saw the light of day in 2009. Finally, the album "Transit Realities" was released in 2010 containing material that was originally recorded during 1992 and 1993.
"Almery", Rene Splinter's first album, was finished late in 1989 and was available on audio cassette during the early nineties. Since then, the album had never been reissued. When it had nearly reached it's 20th anniversary, Rene felt it was time to have "Almery" released into the digital world so it was restored and remastered from the first generation audio source. It was the first in a series of restored earlier works, as well as new material.
This is an awesome album full of melodies, sequences and rhythms that somehow is reminiscent of TD's sound of the 80's. Today it sounds as amazing as it did 20 years ago!
