SYNTH and XLR8R Magazine are proud to present:

The SYNTH One Year Anniversary Party
at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco.

Memory Systems (SF/Form Records)
Memory Systems is fronted by San Francisco residents Brian Jackson, Phoenix Perry, and Jenny Young. Because of their slogan, "memory isn't what it used to be", this trio has set out to give you electronic art to remember. Their visual products are just as central to the overall production process as the music, which is especially noticeable at one of their rare public appearances. Phoenix has exhibited as a video artist in London, Hanover, Barcelona, and the US. She recently curated Air Portugal II at Pond Gallery, feasturing video artists from SF and Portugal.

Prior to Memory systems, sound designer and audio engineer Brian played bass and synthesizer for a 'psychic' electronic-rock quartet, with releases on labels in the US, Canada, Europe, and Japan. Jenny studied media production at SF State and has been exhibiting live video and video installations throughout the last year. As a group, Memory Systems' primary objective is to create a temporally-based need in the population for self awareness, and then to satisfy that need with product. Product in this case is none other than the fruits of top-grade metaphysical materialism reconditioned for the spiritually challenged.

Hong Kong Counterfeit (NYC/Throb, Mooner Industries, International DJ Gigolo)
Hong Kong Counterfeit is a collaboration between a retro-futurist techno artist named Inform3r and Eastern European designer and deejay Katya Casio. The project was created to pay a tribute to early 80's dance music - Italo dance, eurodisco, etc. HKC found a perfect home on the Munich based label Erkrankung Durch Musique (EDM). HKC released their first EP in picture disc format, featuring pictures of Katya Casio wearing clothes that she designed in collaboration with NY underground design guru Garo Sparo and soft focus photography by Rachel Kleinman. HKC's tracks have graced the dance floors discotechs all over the world and the runways of high fashion designer shows in NYC. HKC gives the audience a contemporary edge of bleepy analog synthesizers, naive/overly sensitive lyrics, and primitive drum computers.
