( ;D --> For over 15 years, In Strict Confidence has been creating a unique blend of electronic industrial music. Their last few releases saw an incorporation of pop sensibilities thrown into the mix to give their songs a “rock vibe” while maintaining In Strict Confidence’s signature identity. Formed in 1992, In Strict Confidence has been carving their own niche in the music world for over a decade. The volatile combination of Dennis Ostermann (Vocals / Programming) and Jorg Schelte (Programming) have been soaring up the German charts since the band's inception. ISC burst onto the scene to rave reviews and praises from media and fans worldwide. Soon after, they were named Orkus Magazine's newcomer of the year. Since receiving this honor, ISC has not slowed down, appearing on nearly 70 compilations and releasing seven full length albums, several singles and and two EPs.In Strict Confidence has continued their development and as we cross into the new millennium, they continue to forge ahead laying the groundwork for things to come and setting the standards for all others to follow.)

Mentallo & The Fixer 

www.facebook.com/mentalloandthefixer

( ;D --> Mentallo and the Fixer is the industrial brainchild of two brothers from Texas, Gary and Dwayne Dassing. Mentallo and the Fixer derived its name from a pair of comic book characters whose origins have long since faded into obscurity.The Dassing brothers were raised on rock music, so their first instruments were actually the guitar (Dwayne) and drums (Gary). However, this changed when the pair discovered a number of new wave bands whose music was heavily saturated with synthesizers. Dwayne specifically lists the Cars, early Orchestral Manouevres in the Dark, and especially Gary Numan as strong influences to Mentallo and the Fixer.)
