Black Pond - Chasms mp3 album

"Touch", "Venus in Fur" and "Shiver" are excellent. Get it while it's possible.

Fantastic EP. Why the unnecessary scarcity of 121 copies? Repress would be greatly appreciated

Black Pond is a collaborative project between Beta Evers from South-Germany & Jeff Gallea (from Eleven Pond) from South-California. Both started their musical career in a very early age in the 80's. Not so very long ago they met via internet and decided to combine their talents for a contemporary wave/synth sound. The 4-song ep 'Chasms' is their debut ep. They both recorded synths and beats for all songs through a ping-pong system, means: one of them started with a song seed, the other one continued to work on it, back and forth until a song was finished. Also the vocals were done by both members. On the A side Black Pond presents "Touch", a melancholic slow song and the moving, occultish "The Lake". On the B side we can listen to an electrified, deep cover version of Velvet Underground's "Venus In Furs" and the danceable synth stomper "Shiver". A promising debut that whets our appetite for more!

As the best dj in existence I always keep an ear to the ground for interesting music that speaks to me. The Black Pond Ep found me trying to find it! I was amazed when I heard the production of this Ep including the golden seductive voice of Beta Evers (Kommando 6) flooding the darkest Chasms of my soul with a musical light and bass lines of Jeff Gallea (Eleven Pond). I highly recommend this album for those of you into the waves.~KB* of The Best Radio Show in the galaxy "The Darkest Hour"
