You Asked to Remind

Doctor Messenger is a solo project member of two musical bands and the sound engineer for the legendary Russian singer Dolphin.

His new release, "You Asked to Remind," is out on the Label Cantroll. The album is based on two cartridges from an 8-bit MSX computer. The artist combined their sound with a live drum kit, guitars, and other instruments, inviting backing vocalist Dolphin to collaborate. The result is a distinctive, textured release that straddles dub, trip-hop, and 90s electronica.

"In this album, I realized the idea that retro computers from childhood can sound like interesting and noteworthy synthesizers," says Dmitry, Doctor Messenger.

For those who appreciate tactility and collectible formats, the release is also available on cassette tapes with one additional track.
