Bio

Ever since the name Syntheme started to appear on internet message boards, debate has raged about the identity of the person behind the now sizable number of acid-infused bangers appearing under the name. Initial rumours that it was a new Aphex Twin pseudonym were apparently quashed when Syntheme began doing live performances — the operator on stage was a short blonde girl called Lou. And yet the rumours persisted — she was not, it was alleged, really the writer of the tracks. While the debut album on Planet Mu that follows three storming EPs for the label doesn’t offer up any further clues, I know who my money is on.
