PREMIERE : Roy Blues - Lotus by Les Yeux Orange published on 2019-06-18T23:53:51Z Roy Blues is the alias of Ryan D’Sylva, an emerging dance and electronic producer from Melbourne, Australia. Originally trained as a drummer, D’Sylva still lends his drumming skills to a number of Australian acts, including fellow producers Roland Tings and LucianBlomkamp. D’Sylva started creating his own music under the Roy Blues moniker after fortuitously laying his hands on the Roland Juno 60 while visiting a studio in Los Angeles. “I became addicted to that tangible feeling of manipulating sound waves, he says. “In turn I saved up the cash for my first synthesizer and started to make music under the name Roy Blues.” Borne out of experimentation with a range of instruments and synths — The Juno 60, Roland RE-201 Space Echo and a Moog — these tracks have an exploratory feel, bending and shifting as they progress with a liquid quality. “The music on this release flowed pretty naturally whenever I was sat in front of these instruments” he says. D’Sylva sketched out the material for his first release sporadically throughout daily life: during downtime at a café, the time spent waiting for a train, in the dark after late nights out when he couldn't sleep. “My favourite place to write is at airports whilst in transit,” he says. “It was something about planes taking off and landing landing, seeing people all on their own individual journeys. “Lotus” is lighter on its feet, as tiny vapors of organic sounds give way to a steady building synth cut. Recorded and mixed in D’Sylva’s modest but beloved home studio in Melbourne, D’Sylva’s material eventually reached the ears of Cascine, who will be releasing the EP on their singles imprint CSCN. Roy Blues’s Pyramid EP is out June 28 on CSCN.
