Helalyn Flowers - Sonic Foundation

2016-03-13 (News)

The Italian duo Helalyn Flowers strike back at full force with the uncompromising determination of N0emi Aurora and maXX. On this new full length album, they more than ever push their artistic limits to the max: connecting extremes together, fusing eclectic music styles just like playing with fire and ice, experimenting with their colorful sonic palette for the absolute fusion of genres distilled into their very own and so characteristic hi-energy and modern darkwave style lead by the charismatic female vocals.
Just take extremely opposite songs like the catchy addictive cyber pop of "Frozen Star" and the speed punk rock collaboration with Angelspit on "Maths Of Chaos" and you clearly perceive that the bar set by this album of maturity for Helalyn Flowers affirms the band’s open minded creative approach.

Bleib Modern - Veil of Tears

2016-03-12 (News)

The German post punk band Bleib Modern doesn't sleep. After the incredibly well received debut 'All is fair in Love and War', the one-man project turned into a real band of 5 members. All musicians played music for many years - and that is what you will definitely hear on their new album 'Vale of Tears'. It's a mixture of the old style and many new influences like cold wave, shoegaze, noise rock and synth sounds. Still: the sound of Bleib Modern remains melancholic and psychedelic.
The CD version limited to 500 copies.

Unzucht - Kettenhund

2016-03-11 (News)

The new single "Kettenhund" shows Unzucht sporting a harder sound than ever before. With a hybrid of Metal, Industrial-elements and melodic Dark Rock, the band opens a new chapter in an ongoing success-story.
Drum salvos like a machine gun, a massive wall of guitars and the words "Ich bin Gott" on the new single "Kettenhund", Unzucht crank everything up to 11 right from the start. Alternating with a dark melodic verse part that more closely resembles the group's trademark sound, the song becomes a highly successful tightrope walk between the old and a new-found harshness, firmly cementing Unzucht's status as one of the most innovative German-language Dark-Metal-acts. The second new song "Ein Tag wie jeder andere" rocks out with big guitar riffs and driving electronics, but stays in more melodic territory, thus making it a perfect counterpart to the title track. The single is topped off by three excellent remixes, among others from Die Krupps, which take both songs into club-compatible territories. The single will be released as a hand numbered Digipak, limited to 999 copies.

protoU - Lost Here

2016-03-10 (News)

After her split debut "Earth Songs" with Dronny Darko in 2015, protoU now returns with her solo debut album "Lost Here". An album that takes place in realms beyond reality, deep dreams of fragmented visions tied together with a sonic backdrop full of low key drone work and accentuated with field recordings.

Simulakrum Lab - Simulakrum Lab

2016-03-10 (News)

Simulakrum Lab is an electronic music project created by Paolo Prevosto, composer and sound designer, in collaboration with Eugene, voice and sound engineering.
The concept deals with advanced research technology matters, by means of 70's sound paradigms, inspired by electronic music pioneers such as Kraftwerk, Goblin and Moroder.
What makes this project outstanding is the realization of tracks based almost exclusively on original analog synthetizers from the 70's, Moog, Korg and Doepfer, avoiding as much as possible the use of emulated computer synthetizers.
The core of Simulakrum Lab is the balance between old school electronic music and groundbreaking future sound engineering.
The renowed guests who collaborated to the project:
Claudio Simonetti - keyboard player in track "Aggregat 4″,
Fabio Pignatelli - bass guitar player in track "Backlit",
Kenneth Johnson - voice in track "The Day The Vocoder Stood Still",
Liz Enthusiam - vocals in "Quiet Girl" and "Far Worlds".
