Wikipedia defines the Uncanny Valley as the following: In aesthetics, the Uncanny Valley is a hypothesized relationship between the degree of an object's resemblance to a human being and the emotional response to such an object. As technology and robotics continue to advance we can feel a strange sensation when viewing or interacting with such objects as they become more human in nature and quality. This album explores this idea by using digital sounds which attempt to approximate analog. Analog is natural and easy on the human ear whereas digital sounds can be sharp, cold and uncomfortable at times. Allow yourself a little discomfort and emotion in this journey of sound and exploration. All of this album was played and programmed using digital analog synthesis. Enjoy the retro sounds and don't be afraid to
look to what future technology has to offer.
