Double vinyl LP pressing. 2010 release from the one-man Synth army. More than most, Jason Amm's work as Solvent embodies the original ethos of Synth-Pop: hook-laden music built lovingly out of the buzz and hum of analogue synthesizers. On Subject to Shift, the cute, happy robots of 2004's Apples & Synthesizers are few and far between, and in their place is a mix of dystopian, acid-tinged futurism and bittersweet romantic ache. While Solvent's brightly hued Synth tones are still very much in effect on Subject to Shift, Amm's sound has grown deeper and more burnished, hinting at darker conceits and moods than on previous records while laying their creator's emotions bare.
