Metallic Lover 
https://soundcloud.com/metallic_lover 
( ;D --> The cold touch of monochromatic melancholy marks the emanation of METALLIC LOVER. Emerging from the mist of creative reform, multidisciplinary artist Joseph Icaro (aka DJ/producer Wax Wings) forges a new melodic trajectory by way of EBM bass lines aimed to move both the body and the mind.)

All four members write songs differently, which adds to the eclectic nature of their albums.)

( ;D --> Death in June are a neofolk group led by English musician Douglas P. (Douglas Pearce). The band was originally formed in the United Kingdom in 1981 as a trio, but after the other members left in 1984 and 1985 to work on other projects, the group became the work of Douglas P. and various collaborators. Over the band's four decades of existence, they have made numerous shifts in style and presentation, resulting in an overall shift from initial post-punk and Industrial music influence to a more acoustic and folk music-oriented approach.)

(1992) and 'Rose Clouds of Holocaust' (1995), plus addition of the 2 tracks 'Cathedral of Tears' and 'Leopard Flowers’. The double LP edition of this album was released in 2017 and officially deleted since. However, a recent chance find of four cartons of the original Pink Foil Blocked sleeves has led to the decision to re-press this rare album on clear pink vinyl in the small edition of 240 copies.)

Foudre! 
https://foudrenoise.com/ 
( ;D --> Foudre! emerges as a rare seismic supergroup created in 2015 by three major activists from the independent scene: Frédéric D.Oberland (Oiseaux-Tempête), Romain Barbot (Saåad), and Paul Régimbeau (Mondkopf). They are portrayed by international press as "super-depth sounders", "laboratories of the unheard generating a fascinating sonic magma with rugged beauty", or "Badalamenti and Vangelis covered in dust and gravel". Their collective ethos is characterized by an insatiable appetite for urgency, boundless experimentation, and the spontaneous combustion of live performances. Régimbeau.)

Frank Bretscheider
www.frankbretschneider.de/ 
( ;D --> Frank Bretschneider is a musician, composer and video artist in Berlin. His work is known for precise sound placement, complex, interwoven rhythm structures and its minimal, flowing approach. Bretschneider’s subtle and detailed music is echoed by his visuals: perfect translated realizations of the qualities found in music within visual phenomena. Frank Bretschneider tells of distance, convergence and congruence in a continuous, ever-changing flow of events. What is often regarded as an unquestionable dogma in club music (for which Bretschneider has provided significant impetus since the 1990s) - the groove - appears precarious, unstable, and in motion. Pulse and accent are volatile encounters and have to be found again and again for short, delightful moments. Music becomes a constant process of negotiation.)

The track's intricate synth work and tight, shuffling beats immediately grab your attention. Tracks like Alt50ser and La Vie Sociale Des Sons continue to push forward with their frenetic energy and complex soundscapes. However, what sets The FM Tapes apart is its emotional depth.)

Dramatic landscapes take us from sonic and sexy to heavy and moody with Alfons' deep laments and moans guiding us through mazes of synth beats and pulsating rhythm. In a world of self-conscious gazes, inhibited desire and overwhelming attraction, the sound of Trust is saturated in a plethora of sounds that take us on an epic trip from places cold and distant to sexy and flirtatious, with rhythm that will incite both lust and the need to dance.)

Both current members have solo projects, with Henke releasing under his own name and Pröfrock as T++ and Various Artists. In 2008 T++ followed Ricardo Villalobos in bridging the gap between minimal techno and dubstep, by remixing Shackleton's Death Is Not Final for the Skull Disco label. In 2009, Robert Henke appeared in the electronic music documentary Speaking In Code which presented the completion of the Monodeck. Monolake is named after Mono Lake, which is east of the Sierra Nevada in California.)

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.)
