Diamos Roll. “Rosecode”
The founder of “CherriVata” has started singing solo and has uploaded five tracks to the Internet.
He has collected the tracks out of 200 and created the fist mini-album “Rosecode”.
Belarusians could listen to the new songs by Diamos Roll (Zmitser Litvinovich) after the performance given by British Emika in RE:Public on December 17.
Emika is not mentioned accidentally. Zmitser is a fan of the Ninja Tune label and dated the release of his first album to the arrival of the ninja-star. However, “the black lady’ drew all the attention and some people did not notice Daimos’ new album.
Euroradio will solve the problem! We are going to describe the new album with the help of the musician.
“I thought about releasing my own music in July. I have about 200 tracks and I have chosen 5 of them” – said Zmitser to Euroradio.
Let us listen to them:
The first track is Jazz Instinct — the latest track composed in an hour and a half due to inspiration:
Diamos Roll: “It was like jazz, I raised my hands and wrote something at home. That is why the composition is called “jazz instinct” - something that every musician should have”.
The second song is Last Night — it was recorded with the help of singer Rusya.
It was written for the contest announced by the lable Tru Thoughts (you had to make a mix):
Diamos Roll: “I have noticed that 90% of the contests organized by European musicians are all about marketing. None of the contests I took part in finished - their participants did not get anything”.
The next track is— Triple Strike.
“I have plenty of melancholic tracks but this one is very energetic, there are drums and many beats – double, triple and quintuple”. The singer is Daimos but he changed the voice to sound like a child’s voice because he did not like the initial sound.
The fourth sweet track is Caramel — a dubbed version. “I like contradictions. I mixed electronic arrangement and Rusya’s vocal “caramel” there. ”
The last song is Milk Code. The track was written when Daimos composed music for the performance “Balzaminov’s Wedding” in Mahilyou Theatre – he made classical sketches with the help of electronic music.
“It made me used classical music in my tracks later”, - said Daimos.
This is what the mini-album is like. By the way, all the tracks were recorded by Daimos at home. He only used a computer, a microphone and a keyboard. The album was published by the Ukrainian label Ultra Vague Recordings. You can download the album for free. Only friends can expect to get the disc as a Christmas present.
Time will show what the album’s future will be like but Daimos has a good premonition. His notebook switched off because water that was dripping on it from the roof of the club “Republic” during the performance. He had to borrow his discs presented to Emika to finish the set and his keyboard instruments were stolen afterwards. “You have to be ready for everything. It had to happen and it was a good sign” – believes Daimos.
