Dive - Underneath

2017-04-18 (News)

Belgian electronic pioneer Dirk Ivens unleashes the eagerly awaited new album of his cult project Dive. "Underneath" is another masterpiece of dark minimalist Electro-art.
After a hiatus of more than a decade, Dirk Ivens' project Dive finally returns with a new sign of life. For the new album "Underneath", he has again teamed up with Ivan Iusco and Rafael M. Espinosa. The result is a maelstrom of minimalist Electronica that ranges from fascinating to unsettling: Stripped-bare rhythms, dark, machine-like sequencers, psychotic synth-sounds that are expertly intertwined with cleverly placed noise-attacks and the distinctive, feverishly manic and ghostly raw voice of Dirk Ivens towering above it all.
Some tracks, like the groovy "Far Away" or the hammering "Something" have turned out surprisingly catchy, but as a whole "Underneath" is a menacing behemoth that relentlessly pulls the listener into its dark machine world.

Keosz - Ava

2017-04-15 (News)

Here comes "Ava" album from Slovakian artist Keosz.
Massive sweeps of sub bass underlines this brilliant album. Serene winds of emotional texture mix with bowed strings. Guitars crackle with slight distortion as they hover over fields of tape noise.
This album probes the depth of the future, where memory transfers into binary form. Digital consciousness in a perpetual loop reliving the past in fractal labyrinths.

Written, Produced, Performed, Artwork: Erik Osvald; Mastering: Simon Heath.

Dread - In Dub

2017-04-13 (News)

Dread is a newly formed project of legendary sound artist Brian Williams who began working under the name Lustmord in 1980, and since then his dark sound sculptures have been highly influential not only in music genres such as ambient and industrial, but also in film and games.
The mightiness and intensity of this album is both tense and trance inducing, drawing attention to the shape and depth of the space between sounds as well as to the sounds themselves. The instrumental tracks drenched in echo and reverberation ebb and flow, dropping in and out of the mix, and are kept together by the prominent use of varied deep bass application. The usage of implemented voices, acoustic drums and an alectric guitar played by Wes Borland (Limp Bizkit) create a distinctly organic feel to the music, even though the effects are electronically created.
