Polynomiq is Jean-Marc Mélot's (MODERN CUBISM, with Jean-Luc de Meyer of Front 242) solo music project, started in 2012 in order to give access to new sounds, drums lines, and visual experience using only 3D animations. Behind the technology involved in this project, there is also a strong philosophy about redefining electronic pop-music in a more minimalistic way. Danceable but also including a lot of atmospheric contexts, PolynomiQ is based on a large experimentation work process to finally achieve a rational construction. Jean-Marc in his own words: “One of the constraints was the ultimate will to avoid vocals, or a true singing line. Electronic sounds & rhythms are enough to produce the specific harmonics, frequencies, and timbers to put the listener into the inner center of this electronic world. Another constraint was to avoid the typical schemes usually found in common tunes: chorus / verse / break / chorus / verse /... The idea is similar to the way a book is written, like a full-length story, with different chapters from the introduction to the end. This is how those songs are mostly conceived."

Released on 7th July: ROB THE MOB
Director:Raymond De Felitta
Stars:Michael Pitt, Nina Arianda, Andy Garcia

A Queens couple who specialize in robbing mafia social clubs stumble upon a score bigger than they could ever imagine, becoming targets of both the mob and the FBI in the process.

"Against You!" is the third and final EPsode in NZ’s trilogy. The previous EPs ‘Raw and Pure’ and ‘Aggressions’ are still in the heads and have certainly left a mark on the EBM scene. The title of part three is a propagandistic and provocative call and represents the next level. Again the un- compromising and powerful sound lies in the centre of NZ’s work and guarantees perfect vibes on the dance floor – indeed: Those who saw NZ recently perform live have experienced the vigour of their sound physically: straightforward and puristic body music that makes you move instantly. Every single one of the new songs relives the pure energy and timeless spirit of Electronic Body Music. Tracks like "One of Us" or "So cold Inside" with their merciless power, sharp vocals, strong sequences, and aggressive drums easily build on previous hits by NZ, such as "Russian War" and "Totalism", and leaving you with goose bumps and aching muscles. RAW AND PURE AGGRESSIONS AGAINST YOU!
