I give A DANCE OF SHADOWS 9 stars out of 10, because it not only shows growth, but also a really polished sense of purpose. CONFRONTATIONAL intends to confront you, and what he will show you may frighten you… but only until you come to love it for the art that it is." Bryan Eddy, NewRetroWave.com.)

Connect Ohm
ultimae.com/artists/connect-ohm/
( ;D --> The new remastered edition of Connect.Ohm's first album 9980 a subtle and emotive story born of the musical encounter between Hidetoshi Koizumi aka Hybrid Leisureland and Alexandre Scheffer aka Cell.The nine tracks on 9980 compose a serene ballad in atmospheric realms where finely chiseled rhythms and fluid melodies are sustained by discreet downtempo grooves and deep drones. Koizumi’s widely spread, otherworldly, organic, sustained wizardry, compliments Scheffer’s spiraling, liquid, delicate yet sumptuous acid ambient type architecture. This combination creates a kinetic and spacious tapestry that stimulates the mind and soul. A pure delight for vast soundscapes audiophiles.)

Solitary Experiments

( ;D --> The Berlin-based trio Solitary Experiments has long since understood the fact that good electronic music will require more than bringing together some synthesizer presets with some cuddly beats. With much emphasis on good song writing, catchy melodies and multi-faceted arrangements as on club-compatible beats and solid bass. The anthemic Electro-tracks keep the delicate balance between catchiness and a thorough dose of power that keeps them from ever drifting into Pop-muzak realms.)

Stephen Mallinder
stephenmallinder.bandcamp.com/
( ;D --> Stephen Mallinder, co-founder and frontman of the iconic Cabaret Voltaire, has returned with his first solo album in over 35 years: Um Dada. Laced with leftfield house and cut-up sound collages, Um Dada is a melding of energies that are an exercise in simplicity and motion. Sincere, playful realism that beckons your body to move, always reminding you to never take yourself too seriously without forfeiting your agency. While steering Cabaret Voltaire through the 1980’s, Mallinder was already busy piecing together his first solo album entitled “Pow Wow”, which would help define Mallinder’s interest in the more leftfield electro sounds shaping England at the time. It was this diverse and abstract hybrid that helped inspire generations of artists and musicians through steeping raw machine funk within the whimsical and absurdist ideology. Since the release of “Pow Wow” in 1982, Mallinder continued his pioneering work with Cabaret Voltaire, as well as recording and touring with his electro projects Wrangler, Creep Show, Hey Rube, Kula, and Cobby & Mallinder. In addition to his non-stop schedule in electronic music, his professional life as a journalist, broadcaster, producer and now a professor of Digital Music & Sound Art at the University of Brighton, has lead Mallinder to a unique point in his career.)

But that’s not to say that M&VS doesn’t have something unique to share. The pieces are grandiose, conceptual, almost as if each contributes to some other epic, unknown story. There won't be much trouble locating scenes for these tracks to underscore. We believe their use in film is absolutely eminent.)

Equivalents
loscil.bandcamp.com/album/equivalents
( ;D --> Inspired by Alfred Stieglitz’ black-and-white photographs of clouds, the Canadian ambient musician reworks piano samples into one of the most monochromatic albums of his career. Any of the dozen albums that Scott Morgan has produced over the past two decades utilize two volumes: quiet and quieter. Morgan’s music as Loscil is defined by subtlety and understatement: His records tend to recede from the foreground, enmeshing themselves in their surroundings without demanding much attention. He has a rich compositional style that is intricate and deliberate, as well as an ability to conjure immersive atmospheres whose surprising depth is hidden by the music’s supine, almost narcotic, qualities. Equivalents, Loscil’s first album in three years, is remarkably monochromatic music, full of wispy high pitches that swirl around waves of pink noise and slowly moving tone clusters. Almost all of the sounds were created by heavily processing and layering samples of piano that were originally intended for a Glenn Gould tribute curated by Japanese ambient legend Ryuichi Sakamoto. By focusing so intently on one source, Morgan has made one of the most homogenous albums of his career. It’s easy to regard Equivalents as one long composition that moves through several distinct but related movements. It has a lulling effect that allows space for the mind to wander.)


You Man
www.you-man.eu/
( ;D --> 2019 marks the return of the duo You Man to the forefront of the electronic music scene. They’re back with a new EP, called "Tutti Va Bene", on the English label Nein Records. You Man has also distinguished themselves with some great videos. Whether it’s addictive image montages "Birdcage", "Everybody", clips with technological graphics "There Is A Land", television "Indian Summer" or a short scripted film "When We Fall", directed by Quentin Tavernier, Tepat Huleux (an interactive designer) and Giac Di Falco (a trained psychologist / hypnotherapist) unveil in these videos their pop, television and computer culture, their geeky spirit and their metaphysical reflections in a powerful graphic world.)

( ;D --> From minimalism to melody and back again, Isan have been navigating the aural Autobahn since a chance meeting brought together Robin Saville and Antony Ryan in 1996. With Robin based in England and Antony residing in Denmark, they creatively communicate analogue tone poems on the aural autobahn between denmark and southend. Continually progressing their passion for sound, Isan are not afraid of giving their analogue tone poems space to breathe, placing as much importance on void and silence as on sounds – sometimes vibrant and scratchy, sometimes hymnal and opulent. Their sonic design sits somewhere between the Düsseldorf sounds of Kraftwerk and neu!, the invention of a young Eno and the smart-pop expertise of the Cocteau Twins.)

The combination of urban electronic music’s gritty drive with Julia’s French-German vocals reminds some critics of a more forceful version of Deux or Kirlian Camera: yet at the same time it creates something entirely original.)

Gesaffelstein

( ;D --> Best known for his collaborations with Kanye West on two standout tracks from the groundbreaking Yeezus (‘Send It Up’ and ‘Black Skinhead’) as well as high profile remixes for Lana Del Rey and Depeche Mode, Paris-based DJ/producer Gesaffelstein’s solo work reconnects hard techno to its pounding industrial roots.  After earning all manner of acclaim for early EP releases, Gesaffelstein's monstrous recent track ‘Pursuit’ was released by The Vinyl Factory as a beautiful collectors edition with clear vinyl. Its accompanying video has been watched over 1.5 million times. Gesaffelstein's follow up single, the menacing 'Hate or Glory', was similarly seismic in its impact on dancefloors and across the worldwide web. Now comes his eagerly awaited debut LP, a mesmerizing combination of dark techno, industrial menace and elegiac electronic soundscapes that seems certain to catapult Gesaffelstein into the stratosphere and register Aleph as the breakthrough album of the year. It is, without doubt, one of the best of 2013.)

( ;D --> Peryl is a young and striving artist from the south of Germany. His style in music clearly comes from his former drummer background - rhythmic, pounding and full of energy. It transformed from rough and noisy break beat, to EBM kind of sound, to heavy techno and back again. Always remaining his own distinguishable tone. Constantly trying to push the boundaries between different styles in music, his live performances are like no other and there is always something new to expect from him. Creating screaming synths, sharp as a knife, melodies which take you on a trip and most of all rhythms which won’t let you hold still.)

( ;D -->  Experiment in Noise & Body Music. In recent years, you could track a certain stylistic growth in the output of Thomas Feriero. The Italian producer's Avatism alias, once known for a sleek, rolling style of tech house that was at home on labels like Vakant and Souvenir, began to open up with forays into tougher, syncopated techno and breakbeat. This year, Feriero cemented the switch-up by unleashing an industrial-strength new project, Maenad Veyl. It first appeared on Pinkman and Oliver Ho's Death & Leisure, followed by the nascent Veyl label he runs alongside Vakant boss Alex Knoblauch.)

His music is based in purely analogical gear giving him a special warm feature in sound and concept. Franck´s live approach different schemes in production, composition and performing plus the support of visual media interaction passing through several stages of sound experimentation to dynamic and advanced works in synthesis and FX process dimension. The passion for the vintage, the robotic, the sic fi and lot of concepts in futurism, shows that Franck Kartell is making an important contribution to the current serious electronics taking elements from the past years.)

( ;D --> Pharmakon is the solo experimental music project of Margaret Chardiet (born June 19, 1990), based out of New York City and formed in 2007. Pharmakon's live musical act has been described as confrontational and concise, attempting to "cross the boundary between performer and audience". Her songs are completely prearranged both live and in recordings, more focused on perfecting a sound rather than generating randomness in noise. Margaret Chardiet was born and raised in New York City. As a founding member of the Red Light District collective in Far Rockaway, NY she has been a figurehead in the underground experimental scene since the age of seventeen.)

Carter Tutti Void
www.chrisandcosey.com/
( ;D --> Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti formed CHRIS & COSEY out of the ashes of their seminal 70s' Industrial band Throbbing Gristle. Throbbing Gristle (and Carter/Tutti) founded the Industrial music genre and were one of the first bands to successfully fuse electronic and acoustic instrumentation. Their musical legacy is still very much in evidence today. When Throbbing Gristle was terminated in 1981 Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti signed to Rough Trade Records and began recording and performing as CHRIS & COSEY. From the very start they indulgently utilised electronics, sampling, rhythms and Cosey's distinctive vocals, cornet and guitar style. In 1982 (and in collaboration with Rough Trade) they formed their own offshoot record label Conspiracy International (aka: CTI) for their more experimental recordings and collaborative projects. CTI continues to run alongside CARTER and TUTTI's more accessible work.)
