Fragrance is a new emerging synthpop/dreampop artist from France, Mathieu Roche.
On his first EP Dust &Disorders, he carries you away in an emotional trip, from dreamy atmospehres, to more bombastic synthesizers along with hard bass drums and an almost classical touch in between everything.
The vocal part is done in English, not the most evident thing to do being a French guy.
The mastering of this EP was done by Hélène de Thoury (Hante) at Synth Religion, the artwork and photography was created by Atelier Belle Lurette. The music itself was composed, written and mixed by Matthieu Roche.
The first single is called Collapse. Nice dreamy synthpop, very melodic but it has some dark tone.
German Synth-pop band Alphamay released a videoclip for the song „Weak Philosophy“.

ADULT. (Detroit’sNicola Kuperus and Adam Lee Miller) have announced details of a new collaborative album, Detroit House Guests - their first for Mute - out on double vinyl and CD on 17 March 2017.

And watch the album trailer HERE!
Detroit House Guests is a collaborative project, conceived by ADULT. in the early 2000s. The concept became a reality in 2014 after receiving a John S. and James L.Knight Foundation grant.
Based on the visual artist residency model, each musician came to ADULT.’s studio for a three week period with the parameter that they all live, work and collaborate together. The result - a total anthropological sound experiment and a full length album.
The album features collaborations with a whole host of musicians and artists – Douglas J McCarthy from Nitzer Ebb, Michael Gira from Swans, Shannon Funchess from Light Asylum, Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe aka Lichens, Austrian thereminist Dorit Chrysler and multidisciplinary artist Lun*na Menoh.
ADULT. are the Detroit duo Nicola Kuperus and Adam Lee Miller. They played their first live show together in Germany in 1997 under the name Artificial Material. In early '98 they released their first 12" under the moniker Plasma Co. Later that year, they released their first 12" under the name ADULT. Currently, they have released six albums and 19 EPs or singles on Ghostly International, Thrill Jockey and Clone Records, as well as on their own label Ersatz Audio, (which currently has over 40 releases since it was founded in '95). They have remixed over 20 acts as well, including Tuxedomoon, John Foxx, Death in Vegas and Pet Shop Boys (for Moog Music).
Kuperus and Miller also make sculpture, paintings, films, photographs, performances, videos and installations. They strive to intersect the lines between art and audio and have exhibited their work at institutions such as the Austrian Cultural Forum (NY), Mattress Factory (Pittsburgh), Detroit Institute of Arts (Detroit), MOMAS (Saitama, Japan), and Centre d'art contemporain de Meymac (FR). They have shown their film The Three Grace(s) triptych at spaces such as Anthology Film Archives (NY), Distrital Film Festival (Mexico City), and Grey Area for Art and Technology (SF).
