Totakeke is Frank Mokros, NY-based electronic music producer who lets his music speak for itself. When he's not putting out noisy breakcore-tingled industrial under his main project Synth-etik (Hands Productions), Frank focuses on the deeper elements of sound structure with his rapidly-growing and highly-respected Totakeke project. After his first two releases for Frozen Empire Media, a remix for Terrorfakt, and an appearance on the 'Emerging Organisms' compilation, Totakeke returned in 2008 with his 2nd full length album titled 'eLekatota: The Other Side of the Tracks' and his recent companion CD 'Forgotten On The Other Side Of The Tracks', both on Tympanik Audio. Now, Totakeke presents his latest full-length 2CD album titled 'The Things That Disappear When I Close My Eyes'...

A WAKE A WEEK - Little Black Cloud [SLQ006] Out now on Spectraliquid! ------------------------------------- With this debut release from his new project, Dave Dando-Moore (Detritus) offers us an intensely composed symphony of unending sorrow. This is as raw, open and confessional as music can get. Drawing comparisons with Max Richter, Deaf Centre, Johann Johannsson and The Protagonist, A Wake A Week will evoke cathartic exorcisms of woe in even the most glacial of hearts. ------------------------------------- Sound samples : www.myspace.com/awakeaweek Online orders : www.spectraliquid.com
