Hertz-Schrittmacher: Hans Uran – Prinzipielle Sicherheit

The two titles are quite similar in sound, but complementary in style. “Prinzipielle Sicherheit” is very punchy, four-to-the-floor and danceable. The dominant bassline is joined by a punctuated sub-bass, which dynamizes the track. The vocals are heavily processed, seem metallic, machine-like and also give “Prinzipielle Sicherheit” a threatening note.

“Der letzte Gang” is certainly not a dance track. Hans Uran and a second voice sing/discuss death, and this is also transported musically as a walk “up to the scaffold”. The title seems at first somewhat arhythmic, but reveals itself on closer listening as a deliberate staccato that seems to musically implement the trembling, the duty to the end. [Damals on Discogs]

Radikal Kuss - Niemand hat das Recht zu gehorchen

Radikal Kuss joins Red Maze / Strange Arts and delivers a dark, melodic and intense 4-track EP. “Niemand hat das Recht zu gehorchen”

Radikal Kuss’s signature Body Beat expands to new horizons, exploring unusual paths. On an incessant rhythm, the sound of the duo combines After Punk and Dark Wave influences in a dystopian atmosphere.

Eerie synths and feverish bass accompany the melancholy voice recounting a woman’s frightening confrontation with the outside world, the need for an honest social conscience, freedom of movement, but also the obsession with the final images of a passion. romantic.

Despite the themes can cheer Radikal Kuss, succeeds in bringing beauty and hope into a deeply immersive atmosphere

Confronting your anxieties and fears is sometimes necessary to escape the madness.
