While you haven't heard much from Seabound in the last year, we finally have some updates for you. Seabound have started working on their fourth studio album. We neither have a working title for you, nor can we give you any details regarding a release schedule thus far. All we can say is that the first larger studio session is finished, and that the first four songs are near completion.

We will keep you in the loop!

Welcome back control.org from hiatus with their latest offering "degenerate". There are no hidden agendas here, just dirty south gothic house music continuing the control.org tradition of honest low tech electronic dance music with industrial/techno/synthpop/ebm flavours. On the new album what they offer are 13 tracks including a c2.control.org remix of the title track. The geographically random crew have collaborated via smoke signal, ship mail, shortwave and telepathy to cobble together this return of the control.org sound nicely tidying up an era while introducing some new sounds. Limited, numbered initial run of cds from control freak records and digital release to follow.

Scandinavia and electro are guarantors for quality for about two decades now. Countless releases from Apoptygma Berzerk, Covenant, Waves Under Water, Cat Rapes Dog, Beati Mortui to Spetsnaz and Elegant Machinery. With SUBSTRAAT, driving old-school EBM from Norway with a charismatic voice makes its debut, the voice at times reminding of COVENANT’s Eskil. Songs like ‘Catch Me’ and ‘Adrenaline’ equally claw to the dance floors and your ears with their melodies and straight grooves. Torben Schmidt, label head of Infacted Recordings, was that much excited, he honoured the band with a contribution to the ‘Nacht der Maschinen Vol.3’. There sure is a lot more to come of the trio Terje, Petter and Jarle. The double album besides 11 analogue classics includes a remix disc with renditions of Kant Kino, NorthBorne and others.

Deine Lakaien, Vic Anselmo

DEINE LAKAIEN have been blessing us with their compositions between electronic and classic avant-garde beyond all borders for over 25 years now. It all started out with a newspaper ad from Ernst Horn in a city magazine that pretty much sounded like this: “Looking for open-minded singer”. Alexander Veljanov reacted on the ad and met Ernst. During this encounter they found out that they shared a common spirit and musical preferences. Their shimmering discography, created in all those years bred evergreens such as ‘Mindmachine’’ and ‘Dark Star’ on albums of matchless creativity and artistic merit. With their newest album ‘Indicator’ the duo’s continued on their path of sophisticated electronics and classical elements this time with a more direct approach to the lyrical content.
