Noisy Deafness, the Hungarian electronic solo formation, was formed in December 2012 by István Lászlók. Demos had already been made earlier some years before and in 2014 the first EP „Remembrance” was completed by finalization of four old demos and two new songs. The EP was not released but one of the songs was put onto the German Electro-Arc publisher’s international compilation. The work continued and in the first half of 2015 the new…

Dirk Ivens talks about the music life
1. Hello Dirk and thank you for being our guest. Being so long on the music scene as you have been and having various projects as a part of your life opus, can you tell us how is it for one person to be able to do so much, having so many projects and quite a list of releases by now and having your own record label? I don’t see it that way really…
Read MoreFrohm – “Dawn of Electric Age” album review
Here and there, you are being introduced to some music and names you have not previously heard. But as I am, of course, always drawn to the music that suits my personal taste, I decided to give this album a try. Being yet another project from Sweden on my table recently, this proves only one thing: there is some special bond between these people and electronic scene. I have just spotted Mats’ song “Follow”…
Read MoreBorn For Bliss – “Falling Back To Never” album review
It is indeed a long voyage for Born For Bliss from their first album released in 1997. And after we’ve heard what Born For Bliss can deliver, we are opened for one more Born For Bliss experience. And it is an experience indeed. The album’s opening track is “Innocent” that runs in an almost hypnotic manner, a repetitive and mesmerising song, complemented by female vocals which run in line with Frank Weyzig’s expressive voice….
Read More“Swedish Electro vol 3” compilation review
Swedish Electro Scene has released a 63 track compilation, a really extensive one. It presents Swedish electro bands and solo projects, and as the Swedish scene is a flourishing one, we were eager to hear the tracks on this compilation. The opening track is “I Never Told You to Stay” from Uncreated, a solo project of Patrik Hansson (a member of Vanguard) and as expected it’s a solid melodic synth pop track, a perfect…
Read MoreCode: Red Code – “Abutre” EP review
The new EP from Code:Red Code, freshly released in November 2015 is here for your “electronic” pleasure. It is clearly dark electro, ebm and industrial in its sound, but with a touch of synth pop in it. What makes it harsher is the vocals, which are coloured with anguish, distress, pain, agression and power, showing us a dark side of the human voice or human soul. “Abutre” is overall a great track, with a…
Read MoreBodykomplex – “Karma” album review
Bodykomplex was formed in 2012 when two guys from northern Finland decided to make a few old school style EBM songs just for fun. As Kris and Olaf state, “It’s all about the glory of manliness, having fun and not taking life too seriously.” After getting positive feedback from their audience they decided to work on their debut album “Karma” which has been released on EK Product Label this year. They tell stories of…
Read MoreCode: Red Code
Code : Red Core is the second project of the independent musician “Ycarus Red Core” (ex Gothic Guy and Vanilla Pleasure), created in early 2011. In the beginning, the visual was focused on a “post apocalyptic cyber theme”, a style that combined the industrial, the Aggrotech and the Dark Electro in the alternative culture. “Infektus Vendetta” was the first work released (as a Demo album) and it was very well received. In addition to…

Read MoreFatal Casualties – “Psalm” album review
As I had discovered this project by chance, I was indeed very happy to have made such a discovery. I was trying to get some more info about this Swedish duo consisting of Stefan Ljungdahl & Ivan Hirvonen, but their music was sufficient for my curious mind. When it comes to Psalm, it is very thoughtfully made, I don’t believe anything on this album was done by accident or trying to please a broader…
