Now PlayingJen Titus - O' DeathTune In     Song History
|
After the acclaimed “Rather Not” mini album from 2016 TWINS (That Which Is Not Said) returns to Enfant Terrible… this time with a two track 7” vinyl… on the A-side you will find a synthpop / minimal elektro / cold wave tune with a metal beat reminiscent of John Foxx… the B-side features a harsh elektro piece… it is tense and uptight… almost techno even… this one could also have been fitting for a Gooiland Elektro release… and could (should?) be a future dj favorite…
Here is the debut release by Italian duo R A D K O… their music is a blending of post/cold wave and shoegaze elements… both the songs and the production have a typical nostalgic feeling but are rather modern at the same time… instead of being overtly dark the sound and overall mood is much more melancholy and dreamy… for sure these two tracks make up for an impressive debut and addictive little 7″ record…
Do you remember Adolf Filter… the Swedish minimal electronics/synth duo? The 7” “The Other Hand On The Knob” (Petit Enfant, 2008) is now a cult classic… The duo were also part of three compilations on Enfant Terrible… and now after all these years there is this new 7”… not truly new as these are tracks re-discovered from the ET archive… but these two dark dance floor tracks are still way on top of the game… powerful and raw but catchy too… minimal elektro for both the old followers and new fans of the style…
Antlers Mulm has been sending his melancholy songs and soundscapes into the world for many years now… some years ago one song was featured on the “Radio Resistencia” compilation (ET001) and finally there is this 7 inch on Enfant Terrible… the two tracks are coming from the last album “Touring The Moon Bog” which was released on cd and tape earlier this year… both tunes featured on vinyl here are the most up-tempo and rhythm driven ones from that album… recommended to fans of Solitude FX but also those who are into New Order… it is all melancholy, dreamy and catchy… what else could you wish for? |
