Invoke The Insult - You Can Trust

2016-05-18 (News)

Jonas and Klas found their common interest in electronic music genre that made it natural for them to create music together. They have brought the music to a new level.
The inspiration from the old factory in which they make their music is one of many things that makes the wheels turn. Invoke The Insult has been active for 5 years.
Invoke The Insult is based on the love for the electronic machines ability to create sound. The fluctuations and unnatural noise takes the experience to a level rarely found in other music. The inspiration of that sound is what has brought Jonas and Klas together. Invoke The Insult: "The lack of planning and curiosity in how the next song will sound is one of many things that inspire us. We try to follow as few rules as possible when we make music.
Earlier engagements are now a distant memory as we both live for Invoke The Insult. We and the machines are one. Circuits and flashing diodes are the only energy sources we need. The noise and electronic clicking is what moves us forward."

Essence Of Mind - After The Break Up

2016-05-16 (News)

"After The Break Up" marks both the end of an era, and a brand new start for Essence Of Mind who are embracing the present and future with full energy and renewed dynamic vibes, leaving all the nostalgic past behind once for all...
This new release features 4 brand new songs showing the band’s creative and diverse music scope… "After The Break Up" is an uplifting melodic song, whose highly emotional touch gets nicely highlighted through the remix work of Chris R & Jaroslav Vyhnička and their piano/strings-rock crossover version, as well as the epic carrying EDM electro remix by ExoSun. "The Greater Unknown" is a more uptempo club song gathering Essence Of Mind’s characteristic cocktail of pop rock and industrial dance with Erlend’s unique powerful and charismatic catchy vocals… While "Surrender" subtly fuses the melodic strength of the band with its more hard-hitting powerful side, the big sounding ballad "Until We’re Dead" makes us reach other highlights on this release together with the successful uptempo drum’n’bass remix of «The Other Side» by Vigilante.

Avarice In Audio - Crystal Tears

2016-05-14 (News)

Avarice In Audio show their incredible collaboration on "Crystal Tears" with the great dark synth pop band and label mates Mondträume. With impeccable synergy, the two bands have accomplished a flawless fusion of styles and created something greater than the sum of their parts.
Produced expertly with Ascension Ex alongside new bandmate Lawrie/Studio-X, "Crystal Tears" is a beautiful emotional song mixed with both aggressive and melodic male vocals, alongside soaring female vocals set to an instrumental backdrop of IDM and Drum 'N Bass leanings, "Crystal Tears" manage to both slow things down and increase the tension and tempo, blending things together like a work of art.
Accentuated finely with the Trip Hop/Experimental B-Side "Adam & Eve", this 7-track EP proves the band’s pure emotive prowess and focus on audio design.

The Hamburg-based group takes the listener on a no-nonsense trip into a dark vision of the future.

Lord Of The Lost have carefully evolved into an even more dangerous beast that is harder and more raw, yet at the same time larger, more cinematic and menacing. The limited Maxi-CD also contains the title track in a piano and a wild instrumental version, plus the exclusive b-side song "Another Sunny Day In Paradise". The whole thing is then topped-off with a German-language re-interpretation of the Lord Of The Lost classic "Blood For Blood" by the shooting stars Erdling. Limited to 999 copies in hand numbered Digipaks!
