War Rhymes

“The Domain of Arnheim” plunges deep into gothic grandeur, fusing epic synthwave textures with thrashing metal guitars and thunderous drumming. From the first razor-sharp arpeggio to the final distorted chord, it channels Carpenter Brut’s relentless energy and cinematic scope—only darker, more demonic.

NEON NEBULA

SHADOWS WITHIN

Some songs carry a spark that lets you know from the very beginning – this one is meant to be something greater. Shimmer was born the moment a simple chord progression met a random plonk in my work pattern. When I shared it in our Discord, it already felt like something bigger was unfolding.

Grant instantly connected, telling me: “I can hear myself singing to that.” My answer was simple: “I’m not going to stop you, my friend.” I sketched out a rough mix idea and then left for a work conference in the stunning landscapes of Sorsele, up on the mountain of Nalovardo.

Listening to my mix idea of Shimmer on repeat against those endless horizons was an experience beyond words. We even stumbled upon a bear during one of our hikes. That whole weekend, the mountain imprinted its essence into me – the air, the silence, the raw presence of nature. One of the photos taken at the very top of Nalovardo now accompanies this release, forever tying the music to that place. When I got back home on Sunday, I knew exactly what to do: capture that feeling and weave it into the track. I even layered in some of my recordings from the trip.

That evening, Grant’s vocal files arrived. At first, I hesitated – his take brought Shimmer into an entirely new space. I let it rest overnight. The next morning, hearing it again, I realized it was exactly where the song needed to go. Something was still missing, though. It finally struck me: Shimmer had to carry the soul of Nalovardo – the echoes of me humming while walking those trails, and even the memory of a Sami guide trying to teach us consultants how to joik.

This is not just another track. It’s a journey born from serendipity, friendship, mountains, and moments you can’t plan for. And while this version carries Grant’s voice into the cosmos, Shimmer also has a second life waiting. The instrumental – shimmering in its own light – will be revealed at a later time.

Ladies and gentlemen we have a lift of, I present to you Shimmer.

A pulse emerges from the shadows. “Danceborne” is a hypnotic journey through melodic techno, where cinematic textures collide with driving rhythms and atmospheric tension. Crafted for both introspection and movement, this track evokes the feeling of being summoned to dance by unseen forces — a ritual of light and darkness.

DEF CODE is more than a band, it's a sonic statement about the future of electronic music. Drawing inspiration from legends, the duo takes that legacy and pushes it forward with a sound and style that are entirely their own: helmets, punk energy, and beats that blur the line between man and machine. Formed by two producers obsessed with analog synths, vocoders, and futuristic soundscapes, DEF CODE began as a conceptual project years ago. In 2025, it finally took shape with the release of their debut album, "Humanize" a bold exploration of the tension between emotion and technology. Through pulsing rhythms, synthetic melodies, and minimalist lyrics, Humanize invites listeners to reflect on what it means to feel in an increasingly automated world.
DEF CODE the robots are here, it’s evolution. A new electronic era begins now!
