The new Diorama album was preceded by a great single „Synthesize Me". However, full-length album "A different life" is different in stylistics… The CD has already been given a lot of different opinions. With the majority of those derogatory. Torben Wendt – the author of lyrics, music and...

2007-06-28 / apeiron / Reads: 6753

This is the full debut album of Bisclaveret duo from Gdansk, Poland. An ambiguous title already suggests that it's going to be a journey into a human (?) mind.

Soman - Mask

2007-05-02 / Mr.Plastic / Reads: 8247

New Soman's album, just like the devil from the box, pops out of our headphones and makes our ears dance, but back to the point. Music being something between industrial dissonance and the clubbing beat perfectly fits in with my expectations about modern electronic music.  It has energy and...
