Council of Nine - Diagnosis

2015-12-09 (News)

Council of Nine returns with this second full length album, entitled "Diagnosis". Deep, psychological, personal and complex. This is a dark ambient release in the style Council of Nine is known for with a healthy dose of both beauty and sadness. Dark drones asking questions from the opposite side of the chaise lounge.

Kirlian Camera - Todesengel–The Fall of Life

2015-12-08 (News)

One of the real classics [from 1991], finally available again in a nice digipak. This re-release comes in the first, original cover concept, never used before. "Todesengel - The Fall of Life" is (together with "Eclipse") one of the most representative album in the Kirlian Camera career, more experimental and hard than others, cold and full of deadly atmospheres, martial rhythms and brilliant melodies. It includes several classics songs, starting from the single "U-Bahn V.2 "Heiligenstadt"", a great dark/gothic dance-floor hit, despite the fact that it was never officially out as single (just as for the song ‘Eclipse' later on). The album also includes two covers: Ultravox' "Vienna" and Queen's "We will rock you". Produced by John Fryer (Depeche Mode, 4AD…).

The Devil And The Universe - Benedicere

2015-12-07 (News)

The Devil And The Universe is proud to present its latest and third album "Benedicere". The ever-evolving and design-oriented The Devil And The Universe project has a toolbox filled with musical and imagery equipment as provided by all things e.g. religious iconography. These influences are arranged in a modern and original way, the new interpretation a pre-conception-free reflection of musical genres including Ritual Ambient, New and Minimal Wave. Director and film-score composer John Carpenter (Halloween) describes their vivid music: "I really like it. It’s original and evocative."
The protagonists of The Devil And The Universe, Ashley Dayour, Stefan Elsbacher and David Pfister, call their music "Goat-Wave".
In the court of content, Christian mysticism plays a decisive role on this album. To capture the essence of the musical content, the band travelled to the most visited pilgrimage site in the world- Lourdes, France, as well as to the Spanish Santa Maria de Montserrat Abbey and the Vatican in Rome. The Devil And The Universe are passionately immersed with a sincere affinity in the world of Catholic-Christian thought.

Shiv-r - Eye of the Needle

2015-12-06 (News)

For this release, instead of choosing all the remix artists ourselves, we held a remix competition for the track "Eye of the Needle" and issued the remix kit to the public, offering the talented winner a slot on the official CD release. The results of the comp were amazing and we ended up with a huge amount of great remixes that just had to see the light of day. So here we are: we have chosen our favourite 13 remixes from the competition, as well as a few additional remixes we had up our sleeve, and now present this official digital-only self-release! 
Given the sheer variety on this release, it makes for an engaging listen-through from start to end even with 13 versions of the same track. From Basszilla’s super contemporary electro-house banger, to Nigen’s version, to Restriction 9’s EBM to Valkrye X’s thumping psytrance pulse, this release showcases some great lesser-known names. 
The killer artwork is realised by Juan Espinosa aka Mekotam.

Me The Tiger - As We Really Are

2015-12-05 (News)

"As We Really Are", the second single, taken from the album "Vitriolic", is another strong track for the clubs. It has a deeper meaning: It is about that more and more young people are growing up with mental ill-health in an alienage and being simultaneously directed around between different authorities. Future dreams are replaced by hopelessness and frustration. Despite of the rather serious topic, the song works perfectly as a club song. Getting rid off all these frustrations by dancing to this great song and feel the energy of the music!
