James Asher is FM AND ELECTRO BBOY BADNESS

Greeting from TSSBAY01. Today I wanted to share this amazing album by James Asher, entitled Flash Music. James was a producer/multiinstrumentalist who wrote for New Southern Library, Rogue, and Bruton among other labels. He was a big deal in the production music world, he had licensed soundtracks to MTV and Studio Four among other places. While 'Flash Music' may be his most experimental and bizarre album, its also the most accessible, so I figured it would be a good idea to let you try this one on for size. Here, have a listen to 'Process Y', a great B-side album favorite.



To not mention that this album is very FM oriented and saturated sounding would be remiss, but theres also some other great synths and the way they mesh together is great. To me, this is very fun and organic electro music, but it's faurky still beat oriented. The kind of thing that will work for both porno or party music. Pets like it too. James has a great sense of melody on this album and the songs arent too long, so they feel very stacked with groove most of all. Recommended for you if you are into Teddy Lasry, Proxyon, Arsenal, Andy Clark,
and Keith Mansfield. So without further ado, heres Flash Music.
