about

Olaf Bender aka Byetone is one of the founders of rastermusic. With »Plastic Star«, he releases an EP of his album »Death of a Typographer«. »Plastic Star«, the title track, illustrates quite well his main concern with music. A stoical bass drum beat grows, gains energy and intensifies with expressive guitar-like sound waves into an intense and propulsive piece. The sound pretty much reminds of rock music, of the 80s, but Byetone rather focuses on the concept and attitude of that music. He stresses the simple and profane elements, its expressiveness, its (sha)manic part. Three invited guest musicians and remixers, Sleeparchive, Alva Noto, and Dr. Walker, continue the project tuning »Plastic Star« for their particular universe. By doing so they prepare the 12" vinyl for its final destination - the club.
