Hedonic Adaptation by Blue Soul
Hedonic Adaptation marks 20 years that Scott Boutin (aka Archetypewriter), has released music as Blue Soul. The focus here is idiosyncratic analog acid and electro in a variety of bpms. This one is for fans of Warp Records and sci-fi moodiness. Cuts for discerning dancefloors and psychonautic headphone journeys.
Recorded 2010-2020.
Released on 03/03/2020 at 1:06AM (references to Roland TB303, MC202, and Juno 106 featured on the album).
All sounds on Juno Communion made on a Roland Juno 106.
Celebrating 20 years of releases in 2020.

SUPPORT:
Severino (HorseMeatDisco) - "Oh yes!"
Nick Warren (Global Underground) - "Excellent music!"
Sean Johnston (Hardway Bros) - "Very solid EP!"
Adam Warped (Whiskey Pickle) "Perfect soundtrack to the modern day apocalypse."
Steve 'Griffo' Griffiths - "Gary Numan meets John Carpenter at the disco! A chugging groover with acid of epic proportions."
Undrig (Sub.FM) - "Covering Acid in a myriad of forms and mutations, Blue Soul's latest LP simultaneously roots itself in tradition while taking risks and pushing the envelope. Dystopian electro influences bubble over the surface and tracks like The Fog and Acid Transcendence immediately show the listener Blue Soul isn't approaching the Hardcore Continuum of blips and bleeps as a layman. Highly recommended!"
DJ Nova (Nova Planet Radio Show) - "Polished synths, acid darkness, boogie-tek environment, electro darkness, Chicago 1986 and a hint new wave ... A strong underground journey into nightclub territory of Blue Soul retro fusion."
Marty Gotera (Sassafras Soundsystem) - "Another stellar release by Blue Soul. Lots of different vibes to get the dancefloor going. Blue Soul shows his versatility"
Gino Grasso (Far Out Recordings) - "Killer"
Sandro Bianchi (Ibiza Sonica) - "In love with this!"
Hober Mallow (Mighty Reel) - "Music like this is a ray of light right now. Awesome ep"
Salah Sadeq (The Crate Radioshow) - "This is brilliant. love it."
Como las Grecas - "Hedonic Adaptation nos transporta con sus 8 canciones a lugares retro y oscuros donde la clase y el sonido Warp records está bien presente."
