Sound Motives 2. Kenton Slash Demon (WAA Industry/Future Classic/Tartelet)

Sound Motives

In June, I had the opportunity to speak with Silas Moldenhawer, better known as one half of Danish electronic production duo, Kenton Slash Demon. Having first discovered them back in 2010 through their Tartelet Records releases, and later, as part of When Saints Go Machine, these Copenhagen producers were at the top of my wish list for the Sound Motives project right from the beginning. In episode 2, Silas discusses how the group came about, their early musical influences, and the artists that used sampling in ways that have inspired their work... whilst also touching on the Compenhagen scene, the pressures of expectation, and how he feels about having his work remixed. Along the way, there are some fascinating 'Sound Sources' including Steve Reich, Axel Boman, the Dubsided label and art collective Dark Matters. Sky Dancer is out now on Future Classic Waa Industry, with more releases coming soon. Enjoy!
