Axiome - L'avenir est un cerf teint

2016-06-13 (News)

Since it began in 1991, Axiome formed by C-drik Fermont and Olivier Moreau has passed through an unexpected evolution, journeying through most different electronic music genres. Over the years, complex industrial and breakcore elements turned into straightforward idm, electro and acid components bit by bit without losing this project's explorative trait.
'L'avenir est un cerf teint' introduces a broad range of tempers between the dark icy menace of classic Belgian EBM and the euphoria of a technoid rave. Besides the omnipresent sub-bass, saturated beats and subliminal dots of experimental electronics, the focus of these eleven compositions is also set on elaborate melodic themes which indelibly stick in the listener's mind.
An album which perfectly bridges the gap between ambitious and accessible - as coherent as an axiom, and as enigmatic as the album title.

Khost [Deconstructed And Reconstructed By] Godflesh - Needles Into The Ground

2016-06-11 (News)

"Needles Into the Ground" contains material by Khost which has been elementally transformed by Justin Broadrick of Godflesh. The original Khost material – taken from their second album "Corrosive Shroud" – is dense, multifaceted and purgatorial with no straightforward ‘stems’ based approach. Broadrick has extracted what he needed for his work whilst in pure Godflesh mode. As a result, the outcome is claustrophobic and frenetic, the experience akin to being in the proximity of a large, unstable machine on the verge of meltdown. In addition to these pieces, Khost has added a new track. Khost: "If it was a painting it would be about a kilometer wide held up by old, thick metal supports and wires that creak in wind, in parts abstract, in parts quite hard to decipher, and the materials would be oil like and seeping, never quite drying out".

Die Krupps - Stahlwerkrequiem

2016-06-10 (News)

In 1981 the Düsseldorf band Die Krupps (Jürgen Engler, Bernward Malaka, Ralf Dörper) released a seminal album which wrote its own chapter in the history of music: the "Stahlwerksinfonie" (Steelworks Symphony) was a near thirty-minute musical monolith of metal and guitar sounds with scattergun saxophone and shouts, held together by a monotonic bass line and stoic beat. The "Stahlwerksinfonie" proved a worldwide sensation, a nucleus of EBM and industrial rock.Die Krupps mastermind Jürgen Engler was as yet unfamiliar with the output of his purported antescedents. 35 years later, a new version is upon us: the "Stahlwerkrequiem", recorded with Engler's kindred spirits Mani Neumeier (Guru Guru), Jean-Hervé Peron and Zappi Diermaier (Faust), Pyrolator (Der Plan) and US postrock musician Scott Telles.

Me the Tiger - S/T

2016-06-10 (News)

 Me The Tiger decided to make the debut available again. Although it is the very first output of the band, you will find all the elements, which make Me The Tiger such an outstanding band. While the band is currently working on a follow up to "Vitriolic", their fans can bridge the time gap with the original debut of "Me The Tiger". The story of Me The Tiger began at the same moment as the recording of the band's self-titled debut album. The first song that was completed was "Pocket Sized Edition Ending", which in many ways would personify all that Me The Tiger would become; energetic sequencers, power chords, driving rhythms and emotional vocals. Lyrically the album is a reaction against all gender discrimination, xenophobia, religious fanaticism and greedy capitalism. On top of that the lyrics also deal with relationships, love and frustration.
