Hailing from the South of France, Victor-Yann began writing and composing music in the early 2000s. Passionate about romantic poetry and occult music, especially the underground culture of the 1980s, his artistic and musical journey was also deeply influenced by the work of his elder brother Alaxis Andreas G. (Le Syndicat Electronique) with whom he collaborated on a number of projects.
Electro-minimal duo from Athens, Greece. Selofan were formed 2012 by Joanna and Dimitris in Athens. Today Selofan is numbered among the protagonists of the dark electronic music scene. Selofan’s sound and style possesses an extraordinary variety, while at the beginning they were stamped as a minimalsynth act, they soon developed their own audiovisual mix, combining different elements of electronic music, singing or storytelling in different languages and presenting themselves in such a theatrical way, that each live performance is emotionally overwhelming. Selofan have their own musical and aesthetical identity, underlined by their artwork and videos. [Discogs] From deathrock to electro punk. Stuck with casual poetry. The music project of the Berlin author Benjamin Schmidt is a gothic Frankenstein, who is constantly reassembled in various experiments. It’s strange music for strange people. Enjoy the gloom.

Early attention from her past bands as a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter with such acts as The Valentines and 1984, at a young age had the early achievements of being the opening act for artists like Peter Murphy from Bauhaus and Legendary Pink Dots, in Rome. After moving to Berlin, she joined a band called House of Light. Playing the synths and singing, they toured extensively in US, Europe, and Australia. Often described as ethereal, gothic, minimal-drone, noir, and dark wave, VV & the Void’s music is the singular celebration of earthly and lucid dichotomy of grace and disproportion, the feminine and the masculine, the moon and the sun, birth and death, and the war of consciousness from the perspective of unconsciousness.
