Synopsis

Album Description
I?ve Got My Eye On You is the debut full-length album from Syclops, featuring Sven Kortehisto on keyboards and electronics, Hanna Sarkari on bass, keyboards, and electronics, and Jukka Kantonen on drums, percussion, and drum programming. This album was produced by Maurice Fulton. Little is known about the secretive trio. It is believed that Kortehisto, Sarkari, and Kantonen aren?t all Finnish, but repeated attempts to gather any kind of a credible biography for the players has been unsuccessful; they simply refuse to do interviews or reveal anything about themselves. Do they see this as rebellious? No. Do they want to be mysterious? No. Do they think this helps the music? Yes. The members like to perform live together, but only for themselves and not for audiences. The act of making music is enough for them. They want the listener to experience and enjoy it unencumbered by other things like biographical information, stories, and the like.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This album is good, yet I can't define why it is good. I feel like I can produce this very music on my computer alone. The track MONKEYPUSS feels like something I created when I was college using a Pentium III notebook and Reason 2.0 - yet it sounds much more complete and something to be proud of and willing to share with the public.



This album is highly recommended for anyone who likes blips and bleeps via synths. Of course we are rewarded with the sounds of a real drum kit in some tracks and many tracks get better the more you play them. So this is something much more than a music project that was created on some computer.



Those who like minimal techno, disco, jazz, and synthetic sounds, PLAY AND ENJOY."
