Latvian Alisa Scetinina aka Gaisma teams up with Rework for an exciting new collaborative project, Sceti. They debut on the Exlove label with a fantastic four-track EP of song-led synth disco.
Scetinina is a former ballet dancer at the Stuttgarter Ballet, and now an accomplished vocalist. She fronts this powerful new outfit which is produced by Playhouse and Exlove artists Rework aka Daniel Varga & Michael Kuebler. Between them, they cook up a unique vibe that straddles the lines between disco, new wave, indie, electro and synthpop. They do so with vintage synths, minimal drum machine patterns and dreamy soundscape-like vocals from Alisa. The EP: “Feel Alive”, is presented as a romantic ode to eclecticism, which is sustained in a strange and elusive terrain, but it is there where this singular producer achieves his final objective: to sound new without being it, to sound old without looking like it, alternating each masterfully genre and exit the labyrinth knowing that, whether it has been forwards or backwards, the journey has been worth it. In the end, it is a unique work, which consolidates a sound full of cinematographic influences, until finding a set that is a progression of chords that are like serotonin pumps, also testimony of a complex era and society, which seeks redemption.
The result of this return to Sceti of the musical duo is a romantic ode to eclecticism, which is held in strange, dark, and sometimes quite creepy terrain, but that is where this singular producer achieves his ultimate goal: sound new without being new. , sounding old without seeming it, alternating each genre with mastery and leaving the labyrinth knowing that, whether it has been forwards or backwards, the journey has been worth it. Few producers know how to play his cards as well as he does, scoring a track that calls into question the rules of the genre, building a timeless set, to which we will go over time trying to decipher that magical and complex mechanism that manages to transcend all expectations. of dance music.
