Minimal Wave Syntpop

Minimal Wave is proud to present a reissue of the seminal first album from Swiss Wavers, Guyer’s Connection. Tibor Csébits and Philippe Alioth formed Guyer’‘s Connection in Basel, Switzerland when they were only 14 and 15 years old. At the time they were in a new wave rock band called “Kurtzschluss” which they decided to break from in order to make purely electronic music. They began with two synthesizers, a drum machine, a 4-track tape recorder and a multitude of ideas. They channeled their unique and humorous vision into their first album, entitled Portrait which they produced themselves and self-released in 1983. Over the years, the album became a highly sought after minimal synth cult classic. It stands alone as one of the strongest examples of Swiss Minimal Wave, and probably the only one that is in Baseldytsch. The Portrait reissue is presented in a high quality gloss sleeve, with artwork to match their original sleeve design from 1983. The record features newly remastered audio pressed on 180 gram black vinyl, as a hand-numbered edition of 999. Release date: September 16th, 2014.

Full Time Hobby are pleased to announce the release of Vancouver-based quartet Dralms’ debut 7" ‘Crushed Pleats/ Divisions of Labour’, out now.
Buy: 
7" - bit.ly/1qJhSJP
iTunes - bit.ly/Z5wQmZ

Working with collaborators Shaunn Watt and Peter Carruthers from Siskiyou, and William Kendrick of Failing, the project delivers a darker, more complex sound than that of Smith’s solo work. Bringing into the equation Andy Dixon’s production and electronics, Dralms packs a heavier punch, pulling the listener into the depths of the song and demanding undivided attention.  

The band’s first release Crushed Pleats, released in March, has a swampy ambience and deep bass pulse. Smith’s lyrics expose powerlessness, fear and rhetoric, but beyond the poetic prowess, the band’s strength is in their ability to devise instrumental build-ups. The optical illusions of the video capture the deep, profound undertones of the track. 

Dralms debut album is due for release this summer.

Jean Lorenzo, known as Silent EM, fell into his solo project by chance.  Before moving to New York City, where he now calls home, Jean had played guitar and bass in post punk and punk bands but found, upon his transition to a new city, he could create music singularly with synthesizers and drum machines.  He records live in his own studio and sings in both English and Spanish with dramatic lyrical themes that include lies, disillusion, numbness of love and lost utopias.  The influence of 1980s French coldwave and post punk is apparent in his uptempo, emotional songs.  Silent EM released his first EP in early 2013 on cassette, followed by a 7" that same year, and has released music on both American and European labels.

Cititrax is proud to present a four song debut solo EP by the Hacker’s new project called Amato. Influenced by early EBM, German techno and new wave, Michel Amato aka The Hacker began producing tracks under his new moniker Amato in 2014. The first one to be released, called Physique, came out in 2015 on the Cititrax Tracks Volume One EP and was a dancefloor success. On this forthcoming EP, entitled “Le Desordre et La Nuit”, Amato integrates his love of the new wave to form four ebm tinged techno funk hits. Very dancefloor friendly, these tracks take pop elements reminiscent of Belgian body music and bring them to the present day. Amato shines as a producer here, as he has so many times before. It’s an absolute honor for us to release this debut project. Artwork is sourced from photographs taken in NYC in the 1980s with layout by Veronica Vasicka. The release is limited to 999 copies pressed on 160 gram silver vinyl, and accompanied by jackets printed on matte heavyweight cardstock. Release date: July 13, 2016.

Letra

una sonrisa oculta
bajo rojos pétalos 

el frío mar tras su mirada
la oscura noche tras sus pasos

un dulce aroma
una cálida luz

un cometa sin destino
un destino sin  salida  

y ahora
imagínate
su rostro
en las estrellas

y ahora
imagínate
su rostro
en las estrellas

imagínate

su rostro

en las estrellas

imagínate

en las estrellas

y ahora
imagínate
su rostro
en las estrellas

Pleasure Symbols - Underneath Your Skin

tus nervios quebrados
entras en pánico
intentas tomar el control
mientras el resto de tu tripulación, yace inerte en el espacio exterior

se aproxima la colisión
el temido momento
te evades,
asfixiado en tus miedos

cierras tus ojos
intentas despertar
te equivocaste de sueño
y ahora está a punto de hacerse realidad

jajajajajajjajaj
