He had played guitar and bass in post-punk and punk bands but in 2010 he found, upon his transition to a new city, that he could create music singularly with synthesizers and drum machines. His songs explore themes of disillusion, disappointment with religious views, war and lost love utopias. The influence of 1980s French coldwave and post-punk is apparent in his craft. Exploring the intersection between industrial and synth pop, Ortrotasce “Distant In Time” draws a line from the sounds of the past to the present. For fans of Hard Corps, Fad Gadget, and SPK .
