KPSU Presents: Solvent (from Toronto) at Rotture

KPSU presents the incredible Solvent (from Toronto) at Rotture. The show is going to be incredible. Here's the low down on Solvent:

"Solvent, born Jason Amm in Zimbabwe, and currently residing in Toronto, Canada, has been releasing his unique brand of analogue-synthesizer-pop music since 1997. Best known for his releases on Morr Music (2001's Solvent City) and Ghostly International (2004's Apples & Synthesizers, 2005's Elevators & Oscillators), Solvent is also co-founder of the obscure, yet influential electro(nica) label, Suction Records. Solvent has created his own unique version of electro: too elegant and sincere for the electroclash set, too complex and contemporary to sound like it was recorded in 1981, and too seeped in the time-honored traditions of melody, songwriting and hands-on synthesis to be lost in the overcrowded world of laptop techno. Solvent is widely regarded in the underground electronica community as being at the forefront of electro-pop's return to form."
