( ;D --> Clock DVA are an industrial music, post-punk and EBM group from Sheffield, England. The group was formed in 1978 by Adolphus "Adi" Newton and Steven "Judd" Turner. Along with contemporaries Heaven 17, Clock DVA's name was inspired by the Russian-influenced Nadsat of Anthony Burgess' A Clockwork Orange. Dva is the Russian word for "two". Newton had previously worked with members of Cabaret Voltaire in a collective called The Studs and with Ian Craig Marsh and Martyn Ware in a band called The Future.)

Vlimmer

( ;D --> Alexander Leonard Donat aka Vlimmer has something versatile. Every single EP appears to be a new experiment and exploration of atypical electro-pop fields. This work moves towards wave-pop fields, which are clearly inspired by the 80s. The songs have been built up with minimal-electronics, but I also noticed guitar playing that reinforces the link with new-wave and related genres. The work moves from dark- and dreamy passages towards elaborated electronic minimalism with German vocals on top. Darkgaze/Darkraut/Darkwave/Drone/Ambient.)

( ;D --> Brazilian graphic artist and composer Thiago C. Desant (based in Italy) released the new Swim album under his solo moniker Phantoms vs Fire via Hypersoma Records in January. The record swings between deep synths and palmy drums in a very wide and stargaze chill-out groove. The music is so intricate, offering 11 colorful instrumental tracks that match up to a glorious sonic canvas of high-quality musings, and high-quality sound. Rich and opulent, the record holds amazing moments and complicated arrangements that all fans of Philip Glass’ craft shall adore, while the other team–the fans of Mike Oldfield–will find the missing stone they are looking for in delicate and accurate aesthetics. For the rest of us who still insist on drowning in our chambers of amplified and overdriven sounds, the record is an oasis of perfectly balanced instrumentaton without any iteration on the narrative.)

( ;D --> Released under their monikers The Bionaut (Jörg Burger) and Mike Ink (Wolfgang Voigt) this album marks one of the many highlights evolving from this artistic relationship. „Ethik“ perfectly showcases the pair‘s very own take on electronica/IDM that soon led into their Harvest releases as Burger/Ink, The Bionaut and The Modernist. 25 years after its inception Ethik sounds strangely contemporary and will delight the old and surely find many new friends.)
