Antiflvx – Spirals

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!

Dancing Plague – Too Still

Dancing Plague’s music is fitted with an exoskeleton of darkness that shields any and all light from entering. Oddly, though, this sheath of industrial electronics doesn’t impart a chilly vibe, rather an uncomfortably humid one. They evoke anxiety with their very name, and coax you into this fear by virtue of their compellingly constructed locomotion.

Legendary Pink Dots – Angel In The Detail

Even on the darkest day. Even on the longest night. Even when there seems to be no hope left.
Even when you surf the channels and see only monsters.
Even little you, little me, pacing our way through a forest of dark menacing shadows wondering if the great creator had simply sneezed upon the candle we need to guide us through to kinder pastures.
Even now my friends, there is an Angel In The Detail.

Hide – Hell is Here

HIDE are an electronic duo based in Chicago, made up of fine artist Gabel and percussionist Seth Sher. Together since 2014, the pair create sample based compositions using a combination of self sourced field recordings and various pop culture/media. Releases include 2016′s Black Flame EP which is dedicated to the memory of Reyhana Jabbari, a 27 year old Iranian woman who was hung for allegedly killing someone who trying to rape her, and deals with various human rights violations in Iran. HIDE’s 2017 debut album Castration Anxiety on Dais Records addresses issues of power dynamics and representation. Seething with textured yet minimal tracks, HIDE gives raw vulnerability an opportunity to unfurl, yielding an album that calls for personal autonomy and the destruction of anything barring the way. A single on Sub-pop for the label’s singles club followed, with two unhinged tracks touching on the phenomenon of internalized misogyny and aspects of motherhood.
