SYNOPSIS
In The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug vervolgen we de avonturen van hoofdpersoon Bilbo Balings (Martin Freeman), die samen met de tovenaar Gandalf (Sir Ian McKellen) en dertien dwergen, aangevoerd door Thorin Eikenschild (Richard Armitage), op weg is naar de Eenzame Berg in het verloren dwergenrijk Erebor. Nadat ze het begin van hun onverwachte reis hebben overleefd, trekt de groep verder naar het oosten. Onderweg krijgen ze onder andere te maken met de huidverwisselaar Beorn en een zwerm reuzenspinnen in het verraderlijke Demsterwold.
Nadat ze op een haar na ontsnapt zijn aan gevaarlijke boselfen, reizen ze via Meerstad naar de Eenzame Berg. Daar moeten ze de strijd aanbinden met het allergrootste gevaar, het meest angstaanjagende wezen aller tijden: de draak Smaug. Niet alleen hun moed, maar ook hun vriendschap en de zin van de tocht worden hier bijzonder zwaar op de proef gesteld...

Alfa Matrix has been using the catchline "Electronic Music With Attitude" as their main label slogan for years. Their recent signing from Australia, AVARICE IN AUDIO, are a band that truly embrace the Alfa Matrix mantra, and show expertise in their craft with a unique blend of Synthpop/EDM and Dark Electro stylings. Coming into their own on the successful lead single "Frostbite" released a few months earlier, the full length debut is here in the form of "Shine & Burn", a mixture of melodic trance and emotional aggression sure to set the world on fire: "Stars exist to Shine & Burn"...
Cold soundscapes, decadent baselines, romantic leads and a beauty and beast style vocal dichotomy between members Jade Pegg & Gerry Hawkins. Gerry's screaming and frantic vocals directly contrast with Jade's ethereal operatic vocal style, transforming the songs almost into an emotional war of attrition. The lyrics from Gerry are schizophrenic in delivery and subject, rushing from heartbreak to addiction, to self imposed punishment and struggling with celebrity. While Jade's delivery comes with the touch of promise, of hope for finer things in the future. Songs like "The Cassandra Complex", "Bleed As One" & "Punished" show what the two are capable of, delivering a new style hybrid of genres together to make something catchy, thought provoking and danceable.
Combined with extra collaborations with maverick dark electro producers ASCENSION EX, futurepop act XP8, futuristic artist REDUX and electro-rock darlings MiXE1, Jade & Gerry show off their versatility and genre slicing styles with surgical precision.
Evoking comparisons to AYRIA, GRENDEL, L'AME IMMORTELLE or yet ASHBURY HEIGHTS and using the modern production styling of bands like NERO, AESTHETIC PERFECTION & VNV NATION is what AVARICE IN AUDIO deliver, a ultimate sonic experience rarely heard on a debut album naming them as candidate newcomer of the year on electro land?
The deluxe double-CD carton box edition of the album is augmented with remixes from huge names like C-LEKKTOR, ASSEMBLAGE 23, ∆AIMON, NITRO/NOISE, STUDIO-X and many more delivering their personal swings to the AIA sound.
This album is what will be PROGRESS Productions’ absolute priority this year! Sometimes, not that often comes a band that we believe are able to really rewrite history in electronic music. A band that has something that others simply do not have. Wulfband is one of these rare bands!
The members wants to remain secret. There is no information about the band members, their whereabouts. There is no big biography story to tell, no long list of previous bands the members have been part of. Wulfband like the wolf comes out from the dark and hits you. But instead of fangs that bite you, their weapon is crushing beats and driving basslines with aggressive and driving vocals.
Music that attacks and attacks until you submit totally. Wulfband is here to dominate the EBM-scene. Big words you say? Real words we say! When the wolfs come out. You have nowhere to escape! A must for fans of Nitzer Ebb, DAF and similar true Electronic Body Music with attitude!
Dunkelziffer is one of the scenes most influential electro band's sixth studio album. Gigs, festivals and tours carried the name [:SITD:] around the world. Their club hits as Snuff Machinery, Laughingstock, Richtfest I & II, Kreuzgang and Rot are milestones, and timeless classics on international dance floors. In [:SITD:]'s cosmos various electronic styles melt into a sinister fascinating opus with an unmistakable signature. Their equally sweeping and hymnlike melodies, supported by hammering beats and driving grooves, have become a unique trademark. The three protagonists Carsten Jacek, Tom Lesczenski, and Francesco D'Angelo reinvent themselves time and again without denying their musical roots. With Dunkelziffer the trio presents itself at the peak of their creative endeavors.
Gloomily, powerfully, and morbidly the new songs amount to a menacing thunderstorm, while the lyrics keep digging heavily and deeply in the furtive, ruthlessly revealing the abyss of the human psyche. On 10/31/2014, Dunkelziffer will be released at Scanner/ Dark Dimensions in three different formats: As a regular cd, a very limited double cd (in a beautiful digipak including a Hellfeld bonus cd with 10 exclusive tracks, in addition to a special for all collectors and friends of analogue listening experiences on vinyl (in 2 different colors). Furthermore, the Ruhr Area band filmed a video for the title song with director Boris May (Klangstabil). It will be available on all established portals on the release date.
The release will be supported by a tour (together with label mates BhamBhamHara as special guests) in November and December 2014.
