Since their inception in 2006, Staatseinde has been a band igniting everything from the darkest underground club circuits to massive open-air festivals. Always a nomadic project, it’s a shapeshifting entity that adapts and devours every stage with lineups as fluid as their sound, drawing influences from Neue Deutsche Welle, EBM, new wave, punk, and...
Contre Soirée (the alias of French musician and producer Olivier Decodts) returns to the Italian label Veyl with Psychiatry, a four-track EP that transcends mere music to become an intimate and harrowing testimony. Shaped by profound personal experiences and unfiltered emotional intensity, this work cements Olivier as an artist capable of transforming pain...
4AD is a household name for lovers of post-punk, ethereal darkwave/dream-pop, and indie/alternative rock. Born in 1980 as Axis Records, an imprint of Beggars Banquet Records, the record label was founded by Ivo Watts-Russell and Peter Kent, but it soon became an independent entity owned by Watts-Russell after just one year of activity and...
British producer and composer James Brook had already left his mark on the electronic scene of the past decade with Pardon Moi, the duo he formed with German artist Thomas Freudenthal. Their sound, a sophisticated reinvention of disco with a retro elegance, acted as a sonic laboratory that foreshadowed his next project: Sex Kino,...
Evitceles, a pivotal figure in Bulgaria's experimental electronic scene since 2014, has evolved from ambient and fog-drenched techno roots toward a harsher, more confrontational sound. Their catalog graces legendary imprints like Opal Tapes, Strange Therapy, Yerevan Tapes, and AMEK Collective, while their live presence has electrified venues and festivals across...

Granted, in almost twentyfive years of career, there have been some tweaks now and there and some experiments between albums, but at the core their formula made of rock, metal, darkwave, 80's new wave and pop, contemporary...
With nearly four decades of musical careers behind them, Gerd Van Geel and Javi Golo have developed parallel yet vastly distinct musical paths in terms of format. The Belgian musician, vocalist of the band The Arch, marked an important era in the development of the European new wave and post-punk scene of the 1980s....
Hailing from Los Angeles, Sacred Skin are a relatively new duo well versed in nostalgic, 80’s inspired, synth/new wave music. Brian DaMert and Brian Tarney started the project as Second Skin in 2021, but after some digital single they changed its name. Under this new moniker, they released the debut The Decline Of Pleasure...
From the industrial streets of Rockford, Illinois (USA), rises the melancholic echo of The Funeral March, the iconic gothic rock and post-punk band that today pays tribute to its visionary founder, Joe Whiteaker (October 21, 1968 - May 17, 2024), with the posthumous release of his definitive work: It All Falls Apart. Desde las calles...
