Junksista
www.junksista.de
( ;D --> When two long-time friends, with totally opposite music tastes and backgrounds, decide making music together, the result can only be eclectic, exploding and absolutely contradictory. JUNKSISTA is the burning sonic firework resulting from the clash of the two strong personalities of sexy provocative and electro-addict Diana and highly skilled guitarist and perfectionist studio guru Boog. Hailing from Southern Germany, the duo offers a fresh and electric mix of catchy electro tunes, sexually explicit lyrics, sensual half-sung half-spoken female vocals, funky guitar riffs and tons of bass and synthesizer filled grooves. JUNKSISTA stands for catchy electro-cunt-rock that packs an electronic power punch to the gut. From the spanking industrial beats of dark fetish clubs to the distorted synths of an angst-filled orgy of sweatily dancing bodies, JUNKSISTA know no limits. They explore all forms of musics ranging from good old GARBAGE to 80′s dance through laidback electro; while they can as well spit their dirty silly lyrics onto explosive dance anthems with a gritty bass edge or other lighter electronic pop songs.)

"Boy Like A Girl" (Official Video)
www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=79&v=8JZDALRe-zI
( ;D --> The anonymous Swedish electronic band, Stockholm Noir, has recently released four outstanding singles, along with several accompanying, captivating music videos. The band's Facebook page materialized in early April 2017 with a photo and map coordinates that correspond to a location (H&M?) in the Norrmalm area of Stockholm. Self-described as "the black shadow of electronic music," and veiled "behind unique masks at all occasions, letting the music speak for itself," the band's sound is fresh, dynamic, and atmospheric electronic music. Although there is some mystery about the composition of this faceless band, it appears that the project originates from The Kennel, a Swedish-based music, publishing and production company. A few internet search results seem to indicate that several of The Kennel's songwriters and producers are responsible for the incredible music of this talented, breakthrough band... or might actually comprise the band? (the mystery continues!)

( ;D --> Blank & Jones have been hugely important in the history of electronic music.

Their great variety is also proved by the highly acclaimed compilations like "so8os [so eighties]" which pays tribute to the original club mixes of the 80s or "Milchbar" and "Chilltronica" where they bring the listener new soundscapes of downbeat music.)

Nick Cave & Warren Ellis
www.nickcaveandthebadseeds.com
( ;D --> Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds are an Australian alternative rock band, formed in London, United Kingdom in 1983 by frontman Nick Cave, multi-instrumentalist Mick Harvey and guitarist Blixa Bargeld. The band has included international personnel throughout its career and currently includes Cave, violinist and multi-instrumentalist Warren Ellis, bassist Martyn P. Casey, keyboardist Conway Savage, and percussionists Thomas Wydler (Switzerland) and Jim Sclavunos (United States). The band was founded after the demise of Cave and Harvey's former group, The Birthday Party. Deviating from the noise rock roots of their contemporaries, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds have a distinctive take on alternative rock that has been influenced by various genres, including punk rock, gothic rock, no wave and blues. Their early material—From Her to Eternity (1984), The Firstborn Is Dead (1985), Your Funeral... My Trial (1986) and Tender Prey (1988)—had a primarily post-punk sound. As the band progressed, they began to incorporate more refined singer-songwriter elements. Their latest release, Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!! (2008), also experimented with garage rock, inspired by their side project Grinderman. They are best known for "Where the Wild Roses Grow", a collaborative single with Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue from their ninth studio album, Murder Ballads (1996). The song was an international commercial and critical success, giving them exposure in pop charts. The band also has a large cult following, due to their extensive back catalogue of fourteen studio albums and frequent international touring.)

Robert Rich

www.soundcloud.com/robertrich
( ;D --> Although his music is often consigned to the new age bins of record stores and the bulk of his work has been released on labels more closely associated with that classification, Robert Rich's solo and collaborative recordings have proven extremely influential on a range of new-school ambient and experimental artists. His association with older space music pioneers such as Steve Roach, Kevin Braheny, and Michael Stearns also makes him one of the few of that generation to have interfaced creatively with the new wave of experimental electronic composers. A California native, Rich began experimenting with electronics in the late '70s before attending Stanford University, where he completed a degree in psychology. While at Stanford, Rich's involvement in the university's prestigious Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics expanded his interest in electronic composition, as well as bringing him in contact with a wide range of nontraditional, non-Western musical ideas. Rich's performance of several all-night "sleep concerts" during this period also helped solidify an aesthetic focus on psychoacoustics, perceptible in early recordings such as Geometry and Trances/Drones.)

( ;D --> protoU, Sasha is a trained violinist and choir vocalist who grew up with an addiction to music. Her first ventures into her own productions were a strong mix of distorted electronics, a far cry from her classical background. With the studio foundations in place she started producing a multitude of related genres like drum n bass, ambient and electronic music. Inspired by the dark ambient people in her life she surrounded herself with she slowly drifted into the scene and started turning her productions towards the depths. She has described dark ambient as something that gives her a freedom of thought in relation to the complexity of the world of wonders, a mix between the simple and the difficult.)

Lionhearts
www.facebook.com/fms.lionhearts/
( ;D --> The German duo Lionhearts debut album is well-produced and well-sounding piece with a sad and cinematic atmosphere, not far from the late Depeche Mode’s productions, from “Exciter” and onwards. The vocalist Frank Spinath has sang in Edge of Dawn and Seabound before. But as a member of Lionhearts he has taken a larger responsibility for the songs and the production. On his side is Ben Lukas Boysen who has created electronic music with the moniker HECQ since the middle of the 00’ties.)
Companion
open.spotify.com/album/2JJvFkwFMw3tUv0TR04bXX
( ;D -->Up to now, the many impressive projects of psychologist Frank M. Spinath (Seabound, Edge Of Dawn, Ghost & Writer) have always been conceived in duo form: Spinath cared about the vocal duties, while his respective counterpart took control of the music. With LIONHEARTS, Spinath has realised his first real solo project as the music is created by him as well. In this endeavour, Ben Lukas Boysen (Hecq) supports him in the role of producer.)
