Here’s the latest release from Mode in Gliany, the minimal synth project of Boris Völt from Brittany, France.
The Glen and Joe Show formed in 1982 as a live-performance project for Glen Nelson and Joe Vizvary of the Juno-nominated band Images In Vogue. Glen and Joe have recorded and performed electronic music from ambient soundscapes to classic 80s synthpop to electronic dance music. Glen and Joe continue to record and perform, recently opening for Midge Ure, and their No Motive EP later in 2020. Digital Album [free download] After their acclaimed debut with “Glam Is Gone”, Venin Carmin releases her second album “Constant Depression”. This album is again full of catchy tunes. Sometimes light-footed, sometimes razor-sharp. France’s most extroverted post-punk / coldwave band is not a world improver. Situations are perceived from a distance, but the interpretation ensures that it all becomes very personal in the end. Many listeners will recognize themselves in the songs while dancing to the music. The term ‘cruelty’ is so limiting according to our cultural expectations of it, an act may give perceived ‘good’ to the perpetrator and ‘bad’ to the victim. It may give good in the long run and bad in the short run or vice versa. The unifying factor to all forms of cruelty is GHOULIA. With its infectious bass and poignant synth lines, interwoven with themes around the complexity of modern day living in an often impersonal world, Crystalline Stricture’s pure analogue sound is beautifully constructed and played from the heart. |
