Founded in 2016 by Mathis Kolkoz, the project from Toulouse (France) presents today its fourth studio album BLAST, a sonic explosion that vigorously fuses New Wave and Post-Rock. Without gear of imperfection, aggressive basslines and chorused Cure-ish walls of guitars blend to create a unique soundscape, true to the band’s post-wave DNA.
MEMORIA is the second album from Swiss cold-wave project Future Faces. In a synthetic, restless musical universe, it questions temporality and the consequences of a past action on the present and future. With a more nuanced instrumentation than the two previous releases, MEMORIA invites the listener on a contrasting introspective journey, moving from desolate minimalist climates to epic build-ups. In order to move on from a conceptual world and engage the audience, the album has been written in the same way as when the quartet builds a concert set-list; respecting the breaks, climaxes and outlets of a scenic musical narrative.
Valentina Veil started her project VV & The Void in Melbourne, Australia in 2014. 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. |
