Dublin electro pop artist CIRCUIT3 releases retro-futurist 'Technology For The Youth' LP
[2022-07-17]
Dublin future-retro electronic artist Circuit3 (the electronic pop alias of Peter Fitzpatrick) presents his third album 'Technology For The Youth' LP. Released via Manchester's AnalogueTrash label, this album was mastered by Richard Dowling, known for his work with Paul McCartney, Kylie Minogue, Motorhead, David Bowie, Foo Fighters, New Order and Sparks.
Named after the Soviet science & technology magazine, the album arrives like a fragment of an abandoned space station, virtually destroyed upon re-entering Earth’s atmosphere. Evoking different times and ambitions – the space race, moon shots, heroic achievements in the name of science, and unlikely Cold War collaborations in the USA and USSR - this album oscillates softly between hope and the limitless possibilities that fired up the imagination of young Fitzpatrick as he watched Apollo launches on his family’s TV set.
As of July 15, 'Technology For The Youth' will be released across online platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, and Bandcamp. The album is also available on vinyl (with 5 different colour options).
