The Hacker needs no introduction. His 4-track 12-inch ‘Nancy’ on Electronic Emergencies finds him at his best – oscillating wildly from electro to new wave, his true musical roots. For the title track, he collaborated once more with post-punk hero Michael Zodorozny, vocalist of Crash Course in Science, resulting in a slippery wet dance floor killer. The three instrumental tracks have a gritty feel, breathing over the cold wave atmosphere.
Here’s the second release from FOKKER, a solo synth-pop project from an undisclosed location in the UK.
Something was brooding in the furthest outskirts of Amsterdam. The isolated concrete suburbs of the western part of the city constituted the ideal dwelling place for the writing of De Ambassade’s debut album Duistre Kamers. Pascal Pinkert, accompanied by bass player Timothy Francis, searched for new horizons and managed to find them on this next chapter in the evolution of De Ambassade. Icy electronics display a love for NDW, ragas and raves. Beneath the surface lies a deeper Dutch language narrative celebrating free speech and thought, starkly in opposition with a world where alienation and solitude create ever more distance between all beings. After releasing two, by now classic 7″ EP’s, a long player will shine brightly. The album release will feature a long awaited live performance with additional band member Aniek.
Boy Harsher is a minimal synth duo that produces dance beats infused with ethereal vocals. The music created is somewhere between electro dance, synth-pop and confessional storytelling. Boy Harsher started in early 2013 under the name Teen Dreamz. The project was based on short stories written and read by Matthews then live scored by Muller. In January of 2014 Teen Dreamz took on the moniker Boy Harsher.
Antiflvx is a project from Colombia created by Leonardo Jaime (Circo del Luto, Resistor) with a sound perspective focused to the Coldwave subgenre, created circa Q4 2016. Its lyrics, certainly introspective, try to show personal positions regarding existential dilemmas that most human beings have always been asked theirselves for. Camilo Alfonso in programming and synths, and Leonardo Jaime in vocals, leave us a hybrid sound that ranges from the most dense EBM to the most danceable synthpop cold, passing through minimalist and vocal atmospheres between guttural and romantic, an album that in a few years will be a cult, eye to the last remix that breaks any boring dance floor! |
