Garaventa

Casual Drama

Debut album by Geneva-based synthwave and krautrock band Garaventa. Celebrating their many influences from the past (Kraftwerk, Gary Numan, Patrick Cowley, Brian Eno, Devo, Tangerine Dream, Suicide, Prince) and the present (Working Men's Club, Snapped Ankles, TVAM, Warmduscher, Fat White Family, Osees) 'Casual Drama' lays the foundations for Garaventa: a glam vibe, a strong taste for dancefloor punk and a constant search for psychedelic trance. Although firmly rooted in the contemporary post-punk revival, 'Casual Drama' claims a genuine filiation with the electro/techno advent of the late '70s and early '80s, and even more so with the Italo-disco and synthpunk movements. The use of electronic drums and synthesizers are at the heart of Garaventa's music. They evolve in vintage and generally disco textures, and are typical of the synthwave and hi-NRG movements of the 1980s as well as those of EBM and contemporary techno, with a more modern sound treatment. Limited to 100 copies on black vinyl.
