Read Description:

Spine tingling, richly emotive, minimal synth jams

Roll The Dice is a very special collaboration between two Swedish studio boffins, Peder Mannerfelt and Malcolm Pardon. You may recognise Mannerfelt from his involvement with the stunning Fever Ray project, while Pardon is known for his work as a composer of music for film and TV. They've shared a studio in southern Stockholm for several years and have combined their passions for analog electronic music, crafting music using only old synths and piano. 

Their music, although minimal, is richly emotive with an increased dynamism and propulsive energy, likened to the minimal expressions of later Roedelius or the intuitive drama of John Carpenter. Their debut conjured rolling hills sparsely populated with wind-turbines and grazing sheep, while In Dust is all about the claustrophobia and paranoia of the metropolis. Two starkly contrasting but equally affecting albums - check our favourite tracks above.
