The Belgian cult band Kitchen of Insanity were famous as of the late eighties of the past century for their passionate and dark rock where The Doors, John cale, Artus Rimbaud and Scott Walker meet over a nice glass of absynth…
After finishing second place in the reputed Humo’s Rock Rally, two excellent studio albums and many gigs in Belgium, Holland and Germany, the band called it a day in the mid nineties.
The live recordings on this albums are previously unreleased and were made bij the Belgian national radio in February, 1991 and discovered in the dusty archives by Starman Records.
The album offers a nice anthology of the band, including two covers never recorded in the studio.
“Live in Ghent” is a great way to (re)discover Kitchen of Insanity, a band that deserves the attention of music lovers all over the world.

Alfa Matrix proudly presents its amazing new signing from Singapore (!!): COSMIC ARMCHAIR. Already very well established in Asia through numerous live performances, radio and TV shows and various international collaborations, the time has come for the talented duo of Cosmic Jane (singer / songwriter) and Cosmic Ben (producer / arranger) to expand their sonic conquest to the world…
Often compared to bands like LA ROUX, GOLDFRAPP, DEPECHE MODE, THE SOUNDS or yet CHICANE, COSMIC ARMCHAIR now release their first EP "We Are Watching" with Alfa Matrix revealing their unique blend of synth-pop / electro dance / EDM / New Wave with sensual catchy female vocals. If their meticulous songwriting skills literally shine through modern, moody and highly melodic songs like "Conversations" and "Don't Leave Me Here", the 3 next club mixes move onto innovative dance realms and are all clearly aimed at the dancefloor, pushing Cosmic Jane's fragile and emotional voice to the front while the up-paced dance/house beats intelligently underline the carrying synthetic melodies.
And if the club mix of "Conversation" is bound to become an unavoidable radio and club classic, "Marching Of The Days (club mix)" shows the hardest side of the band with a very hammering EBM beat, Asian vocal samples, menacing bass lines and loopy virulent synth attacks, while "Cross The Lines (club mix)" confirms the eclectic music style of the band with its sampled guitars, its melodic grandeur and Cosmic Jane's darker side.
A strong debut EP that will definitely attract the spotlights onto COSMIC ARMCHAIR in anticipation of the release of their forthcoming full length album announced for later this year… Let the modern e-pop sound of this Singapore duo charm you!
