On 15th September, the new material of the duo SLAVE REPUBLIC will be released via Accession Records. Alec Fu and Alex Alice characterize their new songs as Synth-Wave-Noir. ‘Songs for Sinners’ was created in the aftermath of the much-respected 2013 album ‘Quest for Love’ and subsequent tour with DIORAMA and festival performances (among others Blackfield-Festival). SLAVE REPUBLIC remain true to their gloomy roots, but with the coming album, they introduce new elements into the black community. They combine influences of the Synth-Wave movement, Dance elements and the typical songwriter qualities to their so-called Synth-Wave-Noir.Fu and Alice are developing musically into a new direction where the melancholic singing and danceability are still central elements. The established collaboration with HAUJOBB's Daniel Myer continued. Newly on board is the Portuguese Telmo Serrano, with whom SLAVE REPUBLIC integrated new expertise into the third album. Furthermore, SLAVE REPUBLIC will accompany DIARY OF DREAMS on their Germany tour in autumn of 2017.
