Bad News from Cosmos is a Ukrainian duo (Andrii Hrachov and Iryna Bodnar), active since 2010. Duo is mostly focused on creating songs and freeform improvisations narrating of love and death. “We are devotees of mathematical polyphonies, sequences and improvisations based on pure feeling and dark romantic world vision. We fuel our passion for composing by the inspiration we get from vibrant and harsh sound textures, as well as from the flexibility of the music piece form. We search our style in the area where classical composition form and vitalizing freedom of avant-approach are intercrossed. An eternal experiment is the way we’ve chosen to lead us to what we call a musical perfection.” Sine Silex is an electronic Dream Pop / Dark Atmospheric band from France founded in 2015. |
