Hibakusha

Written and performed by Niclas Behre.

Bit of an odd creature this. There was a phrase that I needed to get out of my head and this is how it turned out. I was actually quite pleased with the end result though, even with those sort of weird and affected vocals and lyrics. Wasn't sure exactly what to call it, so I just went with some the tags I usually use. Hope someone else enjoys it too!


This Hollow Man

Song written by Niclas Behre (https://soundcloud.com/ibehre), Fredrik Helander (https://soundcloud.com/sea-hawk-1) and Tom Arell (of Daybehavior: https://soundcloud.com/graplurstudio , www.daybehavior.com).


Posting this because I wanted to somehow  celebrate getting a hundred followers and  over a thousand plays (shamelessly counting collabs) on SoundCloud. I know it's not a lot compared to many others, but I'm very happy about it - And very grateful for all of you out there who have taken the time to listen and comment on my tracks.

Thank you all!


The song is an old one. This recording is in the region of two decades old and we first recorded the song perhaps a decade before that. I love Fredrik's ebow stuff in it, but would like a mulligan on my vocals… 


In Memoriam (Temporary Milestone Post)

Thanks to Francis Patrick who was clearing away a box of tapes and found this very odd interview with myself in NY in 1982. Some things you just can't say on radio anymore , well nothings changed I am still out all night and still love electronic music and I am talking about NY Nightlife, Ultravox- Spandau - Metro Peter Godwin and the dire music press who did not believe these Electronic Bands would last or even get off the ground... well 30 odd years later Spandau release Soul Boys of The Western World in Cannes Film Festival 2014 and the rest as they say is History... 

Rusty Egan NY-Radio Interview 1982

The empathy test in Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner is based on the premise that machines, no matter how advanced, lack compassion. But for childhood friends, Isaac Howlett (vocals) and Adam Relf (production), Empathy Test is all about wearing their hearts on their digital sleeves. With driving synth chords, punchy 4/4 beats and euphoric ‘80s melodies, the London-based duo take inspiration as much from modern acts like Chvrches and Purity Ring as they do from Vangelis and Depeche Mode. But far from sounding like just another ‘80s-electro reboot, Empathy Test have cultivated a mesmerizing and immersive identity which sets them apart from pretty much anyone else on the scene.

With an insistence on glorious hooks and instantly memorable vocal lines, Empathy Test are refreshingly unafraid to be pop music. Since self-releasing their debut EP “Losing Touch” in February, Empathy Test have picked up thousands of fans via sheer word-of-mouth and late-night tweets, and collaborated with Richard Swarbrick on numerous viral animation videos for ESPN and Liverpool FC. Empathy Test signed to Brooklyn’s Stars & Letters Records in the spring of 2014, with their follow-up EP “Throwing Stones” releasing December 9th, 2014.

This track was composed for the Naviar Haiku project (@naviar-records), week 266: https://soundcloud.com/naviar-records/sets/haiku-266-neon-boulevard-the 

Ok, possibly a little bit of cheating involved here, as I’ve used an old track that I had lying around to get this one going.
But as that track was made to go with a lyric I wrote which was very much in the same vein as this week’s haiku, it seemed a shame not to use it somehow.
The original track was killed off in a project by my of collaborators, who thought it to slow, weird and ”cinematic” to work for a pop song. Given my usual luck though, I suppose that in this new context it will instead be considered too pop to be particularly interesting.

Apart from a bit of (K)ARP Odyssey, this one’s only software. Mostly Arturia’s SEM - It’s a great synth, I only wish that I could afford a real one.

The Night Slips By (Naviarhaiku266)
