Within Temptation back with new single (and the help of VNV Nation and Scooter)
“Sinéad” the 2nd single from “The Unforgiving” will be released between July 15th and 19th in most countries.
With undeniable disco grooves, Within Temptation took this opportunity to further enhance the track’s dance floor appeal merging these seemingly disparate genres to create contagious new versions of “Sinéad” with the help of four acclaimed dance producers: Scooter, VNV Nation, Benno de Goeij and Groove Coverage.
Each of the collaborating DJ producers had carte blanche to reinterpret “Sinéad” to suit their preferred style and personal vision.
Only Germany and the Netherlands will release physical CD formats in addition to digital bundles with the various mixes and the unreleased track “Emty Eyes”.
All other markets will make the tracks available as digital downloads.
Due to a unique sponsoring opportunity, the fans in Germany will find a voucher code in 1.500 of the CD 2 track singles which will give them free access to Within Temptation’s “The First Challenge” concert on August 12th.
Throughout much of the United States animals have about as many rights as a piece of furniture. There are more laws protecting your car then there are for animals. They are considered nothing more than “property” and do not deserve any rights. People who abuse them usually get little to no punishment for the suffering they cause.
It’s time for that to change.
JUSTICIA PRO BESTIA (Justice for Animals) is a collection of artists who believe that animals deserve their own rights and much more. All the proceeds from the sale of this digital compilation will be donated to The Animal Legal Defense Fund.
Since 1979 they have been fighting for animal rights, domestic and wild, by working to improve and expand laws protecting animals and to help make penalties against animal abusers much tougher.
All the songs and remixes found on JUSTICIA PRO BESTIA are previously unreleased.
Artists appearing are Manufactura, Polluted Axis, C/A/T, Uberbyte, Mangadrive, Lexincrypt, Cervello Electtronico, Sinsect, Bitch Brigade, Caustic, 9th Evolution, Xiescive, Die Sektor, Aliceffekt, Lucidstatic, Terrorfakt, Lapsed, The Break Up, System Syn, Iammynewt, Rec|use, Filament 38 and Torrent Vaccine.
The big depression forced Greece on its knees and it is no wonder that the industrial electro outputs from this coutry gain new levels of aggression: Too much to hate and no perspective.
Nano Infect, Danse Macabres newest signing from Athens proves the outstanding position of this country in the european Hellectro and Cyberscene by combining the clear structures of danceable grooves with darkest aggressions of the industrial genre
Releasedate: 19th August 2011
The Dutch Enfant Terrible-label informs us about three new releases coming your way this summer.
Kania Tieffer / Family Jewels - split EP 7" Expected in July, limited to 250 copies
Kania Tieffer does not need an introduction... she was part of several Enfant Terrible live events through out the years, and was present on the Hex Grammofoonplaten compilation.
This EP was imagined and planned for a long time. In the end it came out as this: the last record ever by Kania Tieffer and the first record ever by the new project of the same musician, called Family Jewels.
While Kania Tieffer was always crazy, twisted and trashy elektro pop, her new project Family Jewels is like a Crystal Castles zonked out of their heads on acid. So be prepared for this next attack!
Artifecal - I Sell My Blood EP 7" Expected in July,
Limited to 150 copies, in two versions of 75 numbered copies, handmade screen printed cover, sticker as insert
From Spain comes Artifecal to spice up your acid party. In an unheard raw way Artifecal brings together 60’s psych pop/rock and 80’s lo-fi electronic tunes.
In doing this the act creates trashy songs that sound like Crystal Stilts on a casiotone trip. This is stuff that if made in the 1960's would have made it to the Pebbles / Nuggets series.
It has the same lo-fi garage feel but, as said, adds the cheap electronic instruments from the 1980's.
Sololust - Total Loss / Sight shuffle (7", on orange vinyl) : Expected July, limited to 250 copies
To continue the exploration of the current Dutch electronic scene in its broadest sense we present a 7" by Sololust.
On "Kamp Holland" Sololust presented a somewhat EBM influenced dark elektro track. On this 7" he shows a different side of the project. Sololust is equally good in creating pounding dark elektro, as techno influenced minimal electronic tracks as in truly excellent synth pop.
"Total Loss" / "Sight Shuffle" is simply superb synth pop of the highest possible level. The A-side is a moody electronic pop song in a style the artist himself calls emotronics. It has that special Wolfsheim kind of quality, but it is darker then Wolfsheim has ever sounded.
The B-side fits perfect with the A side, only it is an instrumental piece which gives the track an ambient touch. This is an excellent track for playing in your car while driving at night. Nighttime music at its very best!
On this 7" Sololust sounds like a bastard love child of Jim Morrison jamming with Porn.Darsteller and backed by the band of Q Lazarus on electronic instruments.
