Cari Lekebusch - Dark Queen Silver Knight (2026)

Hybrid Productions Sound Architecture proudly presents: [HPX178] Dark Queen Silver Knight. A retrospective transmission by Cari Lekebusch.

Some cycles never end. They return in spirals, in echoes, in coded sequences hidden beneath layers of dust and magnetic memory. Frequencies revolving through time, waiting to be reactivated. "Dark Queen Silver Knight" is one of those returns. A retro-futuristic descent into the raw machine funk and nocturnal pulse of the 1980s & 1990s.

Produced live and direct this conceptual body of work is dedicated entirely to the sacred circuitry of the Roland TR-808 and Roland TB-303. An exercise in reduction and ritual. Every track stripped to its skeletal essence and forged through analog pressure alone. An extreme ordeal for most PA systems, the tracks are all pushing sub frequencies into tectonic territory.

"Dark Queen Silver Knight" is not looking back. It is returning to the source.

“It was 1984 and Chris ‘The Glove’ Taylor released ‘Reckless’ featuring Ice-T. Me and the Space Crusaders crew were breakdancing in the school hallways on a daily basis. That’s when I realised that I totally needed a TR-808 and a TB-303. <3 goes out to all 808 lovers and especially to Ikutaro Kakehashi, Tadao Kikumoto plus the whole team at Roland in Japan for creating such an awesome instruments. May the funk be with you, all ways!” - Cari Lekebusch
