release date sept 13, 2024

On September 13th, 2024, Dame Area will unveil their highly anticipated fourth studio album, "Toda la verdad sobre Dame Area" ("The Whole Truth about Dame Area"), a collaboration with the renowned labels Mannequin Records and Humo Records.

Formed in 2017 within the vibrant underground scene of Barcelona's Màgia Roja club, Dame Area comprises the Italian-Catalan duo Silvia Konstance and Viktor Lux Crux. They fuse industrial-tribal polyrhythms with minimalist synth basslines, drawing profound inspiration from avant-garde masters such as Esplendor Geometrico, Throbbing Gristle, Suicide, Einstürzende Neubauten, Can, Coil, Swans, Big Black, and Wolf Eyes.

This record represents a new phase in Dame Area's discography. It's a big step up in terms of sound, composition and ideas. This record it's the perfect representation of what they have been playing live the last three years and what most people know them for. Also it serves as a companion piece to 2022’s Toda la mentira sobre Dame Area ("All The Lies About Dame Area"), which had a stronger focus on melody, while this latest record is more aggressive and industrial-influenced, with a greater emphasis on percussion.

Tracks like the Suicide-influenced "Si no es hoy cuando es" and "Sempre Cambiare" are an onslaught of industrialism and experimentalism—formidable, volatile, and unpredictable avant-garde subversion. Silvia explains, "One of our biggest influences is doing what our influences wouldn't do. We're more into dynamics and structures atypical of electronic music, with changes in time signatures, starts and stops, and dynamics more typical of rock music. We use any musical idea from any genre. Some songs on the album are based on flamenco rhythms, others influenced by '60s experimental pop, heavy metal, or contemporary electronic music."

The confrontational "Vengo dall'aldilà" accelerates with heavy percussion, while "Tu me hiciste creer" builds into a rhythmic, transcendent noise of yelled vocals and hypnotic beats. Viktor adds, "This song took us more time to complete than any other we have recorded. It was a very organic process, evolving slowly from some instrumental percussive stuff we were doing live. Then we started using feedback as a rhythmic element (through a metallic sheet), and this was the first song where we incorporated this element, typical of noise-rock and experimental rock."

Elsewhere, "Esto Es Nuestro Ruido" represents a manic, eclectic form of contemporary industrial music, post-punk, and EBM. Silvia notes, "It's the first album we recorded outside a studio. Although we've been playing live with metallic percussion and floor tom from the very start, in the studio, with some exceptions, it was mostly sample-based until now. On Toda la verdad sobre Dame Area, all drums and almost all metallic percussion have been recorded live."

With a growing reputation as one of the best live bands around since their inception, Dame Area has toured extensively across Europe, performing at renowned festivals like Atonal, CTM, Nuits Sonores, Dour, and Fusion, as well as legendary clubs such as Berghain, Tresor, Apolo, and Spook Factory. 

Recorded at Sol de Sants Studios and Estudio Hermetic between August and November 2023

Toda La Verdad Sobre Dame Area

Dame Area - Si no es hoy cuando es

Japanese Telecom - Virtual Origami

With SUN247, the Hungarian producers Heaven INC. and Ákos Győrfy invite us on a compelling journey through the atmospheric and emotional spectrum of progressive house. Across three distinctive tracks, the release unfolds like a soundtrack to a cosmic voyage – deep, powerful, and full of contrast.

The opener "Stratosphere" by Heaven INC. immediately lifts off with driving beats and radiant melodic energy. Its spacious textures and sweeping synths evoke a sense of weightlessness – as if ascending through shimmering layers of sound into the upper sky.

The journey continues with "Cosmos", a collaboration between Heaven INC. and Ákos Győrfy. Here, the energy becomes darker and more hypnotic. Deep basslines, futuristic textures, and immersive atmospheres collide in a soundscape that feels like navigating uncharted interstellar space – cold, vast, and beautiful.

To close the release, Heaven INC. deliver the introspective "The Darkest Night" – a track that winds the experience down with dreamy pads and a slow-burning groove. It's the perfect afterglow: warm, melancholic, and contemplative, like watching the stars emerge after a long night of dancing.

Behind these tracks stand two rising forces in the progressive scene. Heaven INC., a Budapest-based duo, are known for their melodic sensibility and emotional depth. With releases on respected imprints like Freegrant Music and 90watts, they continue to shape their unique sound between progressive house and deep techno. Ákos Győrfy, also from Hungary, is a versatile producer whose work blends organic textures with modern sound design – his releases on RUNE Recordings and Polyptych Limited speak to his talent for creating rich, cinematic grooves.

SUN247 captures the spirit of both artists – blending emotion, energy, and imagination into a cohesive and unforgettable experience.

2) Definition - Capricorn feat. Thomas Gandey(Original Mix)

Definition and Thomas Gandey join forces for the next Definition:Music release; Vision EP. Definition take us on a dark and gritty journey through the night with the title track. Gandey vocals come low and raspy, adding the already pitch-black atmosphere. Next they keep us on our feet with a hefty beat, with the synths slowly blending in. A riveting track, ‘Capicorn’ follows the same path laid out by ‘Vision’, dark, dirty and bubbling with energy. Another dance-floor-killer with bass to spare – nothing out of the ordinary for these guys.
