Drames: Dolina – Disappear

Dolina - Disappear

These tracks were created and recorded by Najah and Dasz between 2018 and 2023 in various locations between Belgium and France and were mixed and mastered in Brussels in 2023 by Hubert Monroy.

“Disappear” is about absence, obsolescence, both on a personnal level and on a civilisational scale, solitude and the big black hole of internet and social medias, the inevitable loss of our friends and our loves, the theft of our freedom and our souls.

Still in the realm of moody synth-pop, the duet doesn’t hesitate to experiment with bass music, dub, country and every melancholic subgenres of pop culture.

Eins:Zwei:Acht: Swesor Bhrater – In The Crying Of Wind

Swesor Bhrater - In The Crying Of Wind

This album includes several poems by Yeats from The Wind Among The Reeds (1899) and some poems from The Rose (1893).
Through the mystical figure of the famous Irish poet W.B. Yeats, this musical production reflects the tragic nature of romanticism, the obsessive quest for unconditional dreaming and crazy love in the cold and rough reality.

Here, the experimental instrumentation expresses this confrontation between these two worlds, the traditional folklore, without artifices, and the technology of rhythm boxes and synthesizers, steamroller of the modern musical world.

This demiurgic dichotomy, this creative opposition is more than necessary to generate the work of romantic poets, because it is in this disjunction, this divorce with the modern world and the inability to overcome it, that magic works.

Phantom Records: Isolationsgemeinschaft – Start. Stop. Zurück.

Isolationsgemeinschaft - Start. Stop. Zurück.

After two excellent LPs, ISOLATIONSGEMEINSCHAFT from Berlin are hitting it big on their third album START. STOP. ZURÜCK. Deadpan observations of life under too-late capitalism are set to pulsating, bubbling analogue synth tracks – sometimes elegiac, often danceable, occasionally sliding into EBM («Schwelle») or even Italo («Zufall») territory, at other times intercut by sharp krautfunk guitars («Funklöcher»).

START. STOP. ZURÜCK. is as sparse as it is varied, steeped in early continental electronic post punk but never falling into the retro trap. This is maximum minimal wave forged in the crucible of D.I.Y. punk and hardcore, and it shows. Guaranteed to haunt dancefloors from your grubby squat basements to your glam goth discos for years to come.

Cold Transmission Music: SIIE – ACMÉ

SIIE - ACMÉ

“ACMÉ” is an exploration of introspection, delving into the universal pursuit of balance and intensity that defines different moments in our lives. With French lyrics, it captures the fleeting instant when everything aligns—not as something that fades, but as a pulse that continues to echo, shaping what comes next.
