Out Of Line artist Chris Pohl (Blutengel, Terminal Choice, …) has joined up with Italian duo Helalyn Flowers for a new 6-track download EP, "Beware Of Light (feat. Chris Pohl)". The EP is available for ordering via Bandcamp, you get 2 tracks now, plus the complete EP the moment it’s released on October 9.
Next to "Beware Of Light" you also get a 2nd new track, "Karmageddon", which shows a rougher angrier face of Helalyn Flowers with sharp guitar riffs, powerful female vocals, upbeat electro beats and strong synth lines. Recommended release showcasing 2 excellent talents from the dark wave scene.
The EP acts as an appetiser for their 4th studio album "Sonic Foundation" that is scheduled for an early Spring 2016 release via Alfa Matrix. On remix duties we find Aesthetische, The Psychic Force (with guest vocals by DJ Michelle) and XMH who took care of an upbeat cyber punk retake.
Next month the album ‘Mont Royal’ will be released in France, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Norway, Sweden and Finland. Roscoe will embark on their first European tour. First dates are just announced. More to follow…

In 2015, The Shoes are back with their new album Chemicals, which they’re calling their third album, under the in™ uence of superstition… 10 songs written in between pizza and sushis boxes, in Paris, London, New York and Reims, in France. The album will be released this friday!
As far as in™ uences are concerned, The Shoes pick in what they like : coldwave, nineties UK trance, new wave and even EDM. The idea is to disassemble the labels in order to reassemble them in a masterful electro pop puzzle. They are not interested in composing sad ballads to say how cruel the world is. The Shoes prefer having fun and seeing if it’s possible to make Frankie Goes To Hollywood be played with Aphex Twin, to blow hot and cold, rough and soft, never mind if it’s not homogenous, as long as it is coherent.
