In December there’s one final festival for me to visit: State X / New Forms. As I was writing up a preview for Eclectro, I noticed my liking for the particular sound of Emika. This English producer, now living in renowned capital of creativity Berlin, gives her techno depth by using elements from garage and dubstep. Furthermore her songs are […]

Last week the word of a new Salem release came out and anticipation was riding high. Not just on my end, but around the blogosphere posts popped up sharing the first track and cover. Nothing too surprising if you ask me, as I wrote earlier Salem is considered one of the darlings of the genre. Although they may be a love or […]

Among the ruins of the veterans, new demons arise and Nano Infect is one of those. With Circuitry Of Blades as their first album, they aim to make an impact in the landscape of dark electro. Until now their discogs page only speaks of 5 compilation appearances of which 4 are the same song (Abortion). However there’s more […]

Techno has a strong year with releases by BNJMN, Cosmin TRG and Gui Boratto to name a few. In the more specific genre of dub techno Andy Stott is doing a great. The Englishman represents the genre rather well and with a second release in 2011, it’s clear the man is on a roll. After the album Passed Me By […]

A few things can help me ease the pain of a terrible headache: drinking water, laying down and putting on some calm music. In case of the latter, some tracks by Pantha Du Prince instantly come to mind (e.g. A Nomad’s Retreat and Seeds of Sleep). However a newfound favourite of mine is Ghosting Season […]

Earlier this year, in April, Tympanik Audio released Access To Arasaka‘s new EP Orbitus for a price determined by the buyer. A month later I reviewed and named it the next chronicle of the dark universe AtA dwells and confines (for the Dutch readers). Leaning more towards the ambient side, he still managed to use all the tools of his […]

Traumatize isnt a new act to the scene of dark electro. Starting out as a solo act Traum released Death Dealer, laying the basis for Traumatize. Then earlier this year Lasher tagged along, who then helped make Torment. The album somewhat increased their audience however it seems the next release Patient 6032 EP really did […]

Salem is one of the most known acts in the genre of Drag (also known as witch house). Nevertheless there hadn’t been much been going on around the band so it seemed. Apart from a club tour and magazine features, not much was heard about new work. However earlier this Fall, a new video was uploaded (Sunrise) and this week […]

For years have I followed Tympanik Audio‘s signings and releases with great interest. The sound their artists created of was such quality, I was tempted to buy the whole catalogue. However in the years after, I was little by little losing my interest. Partially because of my taste, partially because I wasn’t satisfied with their […]

I’m aware that it’s been more than a week ago that I saw Holy Other live, but due to the reason given in my opening post I decided to wait a couple of days. Often I’ve considered Holy Other to be a dark diamond. An act that manqages to shine amid the darkness of sound. Therefore his […]
