Nigredo
DD1_amazon
( ;D --> In 2004, Diary of Dreams produced Nigredo and set the benchmark higher for other bands to aspire to. Incorporating the energy and qualities of their former works without relying on well-trodden paths, Nigredo was a special kind of concept album that demonstrated the incredible musical power of the band – and the maturity the unit around mastermind Adrian Hates has reached. The band researched for two years in libraries and antiquarian bookshops to create a mythology that is half real and half fiction where legends and dreams become reality. With great a love of detail Diary of Dreams had created a homogenous album that thrilled and fascinated listeners in clubs as well as in their homes.)

Kibuka

( ;D --> Kibuka is the new project of long-time Clock DVA / T.A.G.C. member Dean Dennis, released in 2009. The album is being distributed by himself through the Kibuka Myspace profile.Dennis started his career in his teenage years as a member of the first incarnation of legendary British act Clock DVA. Following DVA’s break-up in the mid-80s, Dennis went on to collaborate again with DVA frontman Adi Newton on his T.A.G.C. project. In 1988, Clock DVA resumed activities again with a much harder-edged electronic sound for the album Buried Dreams, on which Dennis and Newton were again joined by Paul A. Browse.Browse left the group after Buried Dreams and was replaced by Robert Baker. Dennis departed Clock DVA after working on the stellar albums Digital Soundtracks and Man-Amplified in 1992. After DVA’s final break-up in 1994, Dennis embarked on his first solo journey with the project Sector. He released two albums for Atmosphere in the mid-90s, and then took a long hiatus before returning to the project in 2002 with the release The Yellow Room.In 2006, Dennis released the album Metropolis for his new project, called Nohno. Which brings us up to the present day in February 2009. Kibuka is Dennis’ new electronic project, and on it, he is joined by his friend Snook, who also did the excellent artwork for the beautiful digipak. Containing 16 tracks, Dystopia is a more beat-driven than Nohno, and is a dark, atmospheric fusion of electro and IDM with razor-sharp basslines and clean programming. It’s described as the soundtrack for conspiracy theorists and paranoiacs.)

( ;D --> Client are a futurist British musical group from London, England. They are most popular in Germany where they have had most commercial success. They combine Scandinavian airline hostess uniforms with glamour-girl aesthetics and harsh electronics to create a sound reminiscent of early forays into electronic sound manipulation and New Wave. Their uniforms have become their trademark. Client was the first act signed to Depeche Mode keyboardist Andy Fletcher's record label, Toast Hawaii/(Mute). They have toured with the likes of Depeche Mode and Erasure and have been described as a combination of "The Pet Shop Boys at their most commercial and The Human League at their most obscure".)
