Josefine, The person behind Upshifter and I come from the same town, Odense, she’s a few years older than me. I remember being very young and going to a vegan community kitchen and hearing rumors about her amazing synthpop group Time Masters around 10 years ago. This spring she started to play concerts with her new project Upshifter, described as “New Age /manifestation” on the first poster which of course made me very curious about the music. It’s an honor to present this demo cassette of glimmering synth patterns and vocals drifting into reverb infinity. This is only my humble interpretation but I perceive upshifter as being very much about longing for an imaginary world, that feels at both endlessly far away and very very close. Minimal songs performed with the simplest of tools, but also some of the most emotional music I’ve released on the label I think.
