Mutual Benefit, the project of Jordan Lee’s sometimes one-man-band, sometimes sprawling collective, released their debut album, the powerful and heartfelt Love’s Crushing Diamond, last week via Other Music Recording Co.

Who are they?
Come on, give us a break!!!! But still if your recordcollection only contains Julio Iglesias....
With a career fuelled by ambition, built on hard work and constant perseverance... An overpowering blend of digital pulses, distorted guitars and intriguing vocals... A stance that cannot be ignored, thriving on experiment and emotion...
A SPLIT-SECOND are simply too good to be ignored, and from their conception in 1985 it didn't take the world long to acknowledge the importance of their unique musical vision.
With having released classic records like 'Flesh' (THE blueprint for the Belgian-based New Beat movement), 'Rigor Mortis' and 'Ballistic Statues' they secured themselves a place at the forefront of the international underground, while elaborate albums displayed a group capable of embracing a variety of lyrical themes and musical ingredients, arranging them into the ultimate aural synthesis for body and mind.
Lengthy tours throughout Europe and North America further established A SPLIT-SECOND's reputation as one of the most vital forces in electronic, subversive rock.
After years of silence A SPLIT-SECOND emerged again with a fantastic ‘best of ‘concert on the first edition of our own Belgian Independent Music Festival (Antwerp, Belgium 2002) where they stunned friend and foe with their hard hitting and energetic live show.
Since A Split-Second has been gigging successfully around the world from Leipzig (Germany) to NYC (USA) and from Stockholm (Sweden) Sao Paulo (Brazil).
How do they sound?
Hmmmm, never heard the one included below?
What do they have to say?
Well, read the interview Jurgen did.
This week saw the launch of the debut single from quite an exciting newcomer act, Mondträume. On the "Life is short" single the Spanish duo Mondträume brings a modern synth pop style with strong club appeal and a touch of darkness.
The single acts as a teaser for the release of their forthcoming debut album "Empty" that will surely appeal to all fans of bands like Wolfsheim, Namnambulu, Melotron or Beborn Beton.
The single features the original version of the track completed with a club mix of the title song by Cosmic Armchair and a more laid back pop one by Norway's best electropop export product Electro Spectre.
Add to that a dark-elektro one of the B-side track "Parasite" and you know you are in for a very good treat.
Available now via iTunes, Bandcamp and Spotify.
Combichrist returns with an all new album and an all new positive outlook! On We Love You, Andy LaPlegua and his merry band of loveable scamps have traded the nihilistic vitriol of Making Monsters for a shiny new perspective. Why, in the opening track, "We Were Made to Love You", Combichrist kicks things off by saying "please, don't forget...
We Love You"! See? They love us! Granted, it's followed by the words "now die" and thus begins the bone-crunching, anthemic opening song. Ok. Who are we kidding? This is Combichrist. And the new album, We Love You, is Combichrist turned up way past ten. Everything is farther, faster, and darker.
There are more guitars, pounding drums, heavier electronics, further experimentation, lots more anger... and its tons more fun. C'mon, maggots, join the party.
