BUZZ KULL - New Kind Of Cross

A mere 18 months after the release of 2017′s Chroma, Buzz Kull (real name Marc Dwyer), has returned with his sophomore album. Traversing EBM, darkwave and goth sounds with ease, New Kind Of Cross traverses much darker waters than Dwyer’s last effort.

New Kind Of Cross speaks to the rapid change and tension at play in Dwyer’s own life. Marc spends a good portion of each year in a new city every night – and when settled in Sydney, is constantly between jobs. It makes perfect sense that New Kind Of Cross deals explicitly with themes of isolation, introversion and sometimes anger. The music on this record is heavy and unforgiving.

Throughout the past, Dwyer has refined his sound to a knife’s edge, proving his capabilities within the realm of darker music time and time again. His pursuits are relentless; the last year has seen him tour extensively in Europe, with another run throughout the continent starting in mid-November to coincide with the release of New Kind Of Cross.

Cimientos Fecundos - Fotofobia

Cimientos Fecundos is a South American Minimal synth – electronics act born in the city of Medellin (Colombia), formed by Camila Valencia and Juan Camilo Betancourt, his style travels through the seas of art electronic music, combining art and minimal electronics in both graphics as in sounds, I would call to think that their music has more to do with the IDM 90s, (Autechre, Seefeel) and the recent dark electronics, than with the analog synth of the 80′s.
