Marvin Wilson releases his 5th album on Alex Tronic Records.
He was signed to the label at the outset and has remained a firm favourite through the years.
He has been featured on many Goa Beach compilations in partnership with ATR & Kontor distribution.
As usual Ings Bridge was recorded live in one take as with all his recordings. Equipment used on the album is all vintage. It includes classics such as
Tascam, Revox, Roland, Korg Minipops, Moogs, Mellotrons etc.

New Release: Planetary Circuit

I think it was Dr Robert Moog who once remarked that it was a natural progression to go from acoustic to electric to electronic sound,, I’ve long been fascinated by the connection between so called natural and pure electronic sound, working recently on ‘planetary circuit’ using modular analog synthesisers brought this into focus,you can’t help being aware of working with electricity.! the weird thing is though that these complex boxes of circuits seem somehow to produce sounds of a real earthy nature..organic.

With planetary circuit the idea was to look outwards at things that inspire,aspects of the natural world,the dark night sky... how could anyone not be curious about that.! and by how all these things are connected like a circuit...a giant planetary circuit.! between you and me though one of the tracks is a homage to warm sunny days,empty roads and my old Ducati...bliss.!

Alex Tronic Records are proud to be releasing the third Marvin Wilson Album. It’s the second on CD format after the excellent debut 'Being Here'. The Scots based dance label put 'Ignite' on Download only but due to popular demand the man is back on cd.

Marvin says of the album “It's kind of like a defiant statement really... a celebration and a warning...i think we are becoming more passive... less involved..i think we need to be involved. to express and create it's so important. I remember for a few weeks before starting recording feeling disenchanted and angry etc, a lot to do with the stupidity going on all around,so it's probably true to say those feelings carried into the recordings.i suppose the title could be interpreted in a sort of "heavenly peace"type way... i think maybe more Dante's inferno' really.!.So perhaps the title is more like a threat..! a threat against mediocrity,the mainstream and the fear inducing media....oh yeah and C.G.I..! BACKGROUND.”..”

I suppose I've always been drawn to music that falls outside of the mainstream,i dislike all that cynical mega budget nonsense...we deserve better.! It also appeals to me to hear and see artists work without any outside interference..INFLUENCES and IDEAS...well..the way you feel when you hit the record button is unavoidable i guess.”.! I was also i remember watching some of my favorite films and thinking how they can make you feel..not nostalgia for when you might have first seen them,but that feeling that makes you keep going back to watch again,for me it's the same with music and sound...always returning..RECORDING...I think it took about ten days,working everyday..the tracks were recorded in the order they appear on the CD,it just felt right to do it that way.! I've built a system that I'm happy with..lots of immediate and real time control without multi track or mixing..just as it should be..!Marvin Wilson July 2009

Being Here is a 10 track album which is a unique musical journey from a musician who eschews the current trend of computer based software recording and exclusively favours hardware and tape. He always records live and the emphasis is on feel and live performance.

Marvin Wilson has previously been featured on the Alex Tronic Volume 1 compilation which was reviewed favourably by Danny Turner of Future Music in June 07. Marvin is a studio based producer who has produced for other labels such as ROR and Hypersound. This debut album goes from quiet introspective and some sublimely dark moments to full on dancefloor action. This album has something special in the crisp production and thoughtful arrangements and has some wicked beats pinning it together. An altogether uplifting listening experience.
