[ synthetic ] with Lidia Vomito, Mr. Bobby, Boy Alberto

[ synthetic ] is a dark dance concept, founded by Boy Alberto, in 2008. Our brand envelopes 80's influenced dark dance music. We pull influence from genres including industrial, goth, synth pop, italo, electro, new beat and the likes. However, we are not restricted to these sub-genres. We play dark dance music, period. We aim to deliver music that moves people. Music is power. Music is knowledge. We commit to deliverance...

We return to you this month heavy w/ nostalgia. Before breathing life into [ synthetic ] in 2008, Boy Alberto curated underground events, attended raves and drew inspiration from all pockets of the dance community for years. Naturally, he came across two amazing spirits throughout the process and they’ve all been friends ever since…

For this next installment of [ synthetic ], we release the hounds via a blacklight blackout! Our headliner for this month is none other than @lidiavomito Vomito is a power house that has been at it since the ‘90s. She started collecting vinyl, exclusively, in 2000 discovering new music and artists like it was her job and now it absolutely is. In 2005, Rock Bottom Records was opened by Vomito and her best friend Bryan “Chump Change” Robertson, frontman for hardcore outfit Spare Change. Today, Vomito and Robertson host their own show, @releasethehoundsradio on @lumpenradio 105.5 FM. Vomito is also a horror film enthusiast and longtime photographer. With her roots being in goth and industrial; her knowledge in punk and metal, we’re excited to hear what she plays for you!

On support w/ Vomito is another veteran and Chicago staple @djmrbobby Since the late ‘90s, Bobby has dedicated his life to music and entertainment. Having worked with a multitude of Chicago outfits throughout the years, Bobby has curated multiple events. He currently runs @blacklightblackout ; a dance party bathed in black lights featuring local Chicago talent. In the booth, Bobby seamlessly transitions between genres allowing him to read the room and deliver exactly what the dance floor needs. Mr Bobby has played all the festivals and clubs in the city and that is not an exaggeration. His set will warm you up and have you asking for more. We can’t wait!

On opening & closing duties is resident @b0yalberto playing the usual dark and delicious beats that you’ve come to expect. Be sure to give the artists a follow and check out their projects! You won’t be disappointed. Welcome to the dark side…

Will you commit?
