One of the most prominent acts of this year, resizes as the album “Dimensions” says not to the idea that the new wave cannot be well fused, this time it has an interesting variant where we have 3 Latin Americans living in North America, they are give us a album with 80s, 90s overtones bringing to mind Fixx, The Chameleons and even Tears for Fears both for the instrumentalization and for the versatile voice of its singer.
Minimalist post punk band from two ex-members of Antiguo Régimen completed with the recruitment of one member from the deep and lisergic pop band Tercer Sol. Nunca Nada has a strange, profound but austere sound. As a trio the band permits itself to emphasize both the void and the intense with disarmingly simple lyrics that are vacant of decoration. Make-up and style become inauthentic when looked at in the mirror of frustration, a confrontation where silence is not an option. The day to day truth, unavoidable by its own nature, is spit out and proclaimed: everything is lost, there is no possibility for a positive outcome. Reminiscent of post-punk/new wave bands like Glorious Din, Chameleons, Wire or Wipers.
A critique of the idea of the balance of nature and its use as a metaphor for the perfect system, as exemplified in the 1967 poem ‘All Watched Over By Machines Of Loving Grace’ by Richard Brautigan. Also explored by film maker Adam Curtis in the documentary of the same name. Recorded February to April 2021 in High Wycombe, United Kingdom.
Oppenheimer MkII is Andy Oppenheimer, singer, songwriter and formerly one-half of the ground breaking 1980s synth duo Oppenheimer Analysis and Mahk Rumbae, electronic musician & producer known for his work with Mitra Mitra and the notable UK industrial / experimental band Konstruktivists. Together as Oppenheimer MkII, they have been producing the most dynamic & addictive synth of the last decade.
We’re proud to present Accidental Business, a long-term project strewn with pitfalls and disillusions nodding to the incongruous events that led to the birth of Unknown Precept. Looking back at what made our trademark for the past 8 years, this new compilation marks a turning point in our discography. Scanning out the dustiest corners of the label’s bizarre roster to offer a complete look at Unknown Precept’s soul and vision; it brings together 18 tracks of unreleased material and collaborations recorded by our closest friends. From slow-paced post-punk hitting hard as bricks to short-circuited noise that makes the power supply trip, not to mention our love for the grotesque and self-mockery via humorous wonky synthpunk and bad tempered body music cracking jokes at a ghost audience. This is what you get when a group of people that have no clue what they’re doing get together. Into the unknown we sink, but where to find us next? |
