The Swedish duo Harlem, formed by Martin Thomasson and Johan Skugge, is a long-lived project in constant evolution, as their musical heritage is due to diverse musical genres such as electro, minimal, techno, dub, and more recently new beat, industrial and EBM.

Harlem debuts on the Italian label Veyl with an album that shows a new update in terms of their style and also a great versatility to generate their works from bordering fields and, at the same time, with such distant sounds.   

Bait, the first cut of the album, exudes rawness, as well as a certain minimalism caused by the simplicity to generate a complete track only with a simple rhythmic base, a bass line with an invariable pattern and a set of several voices. With Juice we can also apply the same guidelines because of its rough sound, however, it is richer in nuances and distances itself more from lo-fi. Target immerses you in a different scenario, with a more elaborate and variable rhythm, just like its melody. 

Sthlm Muscle's sound is totally electronic, as well as brilliant. Spastic Puppy also mixes this kind of textures with vocals, so you are halfway between electro and new beat. Pocket Candy and Night Vision completely change the minimalist model. These last two tracks stand out from the rest for their sonic breadth with heartbreaking synth lines.

Release date: June 11th, 2021.

CUT UNCONSCIOUS / EZAÜF
"Split"

"Cut Unconscious is the industrial project of experimental artist M. Komarov. Komarov’s roots in harsh noise and power electronics extend out to his newest techno release through heavy saturation and distortion. “Split” deliberately eschews hardware in favor of something entirely digital. These are sounds of the end of history. The sound of the singularity closing in."

Ezaüf is a Techno producer/Live act based in Paris.
His production is a great combination of experimenting a darker path than the electronic schemes and love for wires/analogic touch which appears to be a purgatory for young engineers. His relentless search for a raw and deep sound, balanced with structural feelings, generates an intriguing mix of power, hope, and at the same time anxiety and stress which reflects the search for soothing the conscience burning.

For IDLESTATES067 we welcome Sevrd Wings.
Born amidst the bloodiest civil war in Guatemala and currently based in Montreal, Canada, this Latino-Canadian producer/dj Viktor Reynosa aka CZN (pronounced see-zin) has taken a nihilistic approach in their productions and sets only to recreate sheer brutal sonic representation of it’s origin while being highly influenced by some of their favourite bands (early Slipknot, Whitechapel, Suicide Silence, NIN) and those classic horror movie flicks (Friday the 13th, Halloween, Saw, Exorcist) that forged the style of music they create.

IDLESTATES067 - Sevrd Wings

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from UF. "Dalston Bubble" comes off the first EP, Unknown Fate, from the new collaborative project between Samuel Kerridge and OAKE. 

Self-described as a ‘power metal techno’ duo, the project was initially born from an Atonal commission. Now, OAKE & Kerridge present two EPs ‘Unknown’ and ‘Fate’, culminating in 9 tracks of unadulterated sonic warfare for their LP release.

Of the project UF say "Forged through friendship, addiction, and debauchery, UF is the sum of our parts. It’s taken over a decade to formulate these ideas and the noise is palpable. Pack your end of world survival bags and prepare yourselves for the ensuing riot.”
Samuel Kerridge and OAKE started creating music together when they shared a studio in Berlin and have been making music together for a decade. This is the first time that they have released music as a duo and it’s been a long time in the making.

UF ‘Unknown’ released 10th April on digital and vinyl on Kick To Kill. Get yours at: https://uf.ffm.to/unknown.OPR

PREMIERE: UF - Dalston Bubble

[ YEARS OF DENIAL ]

Years of Denial is the project of French musician Jerome Tcherneyan, former times drummer of cult British band Piano Magic and music producer since 1997, and Czech performance & music artist, singer-songwriter & poet Barkosina Hanusova. Active since 2016, the duo has become known across the globe for their well-crafted sharp productions and electrifying live performances.

Utilizing hardware and a plethora of dub devices combined with Barkosina’s unmistakable vocals, the pair revisit the dark corners of post-punk, goth, new beat, EBM, industrial, and rave culture. Their live shows inject rhythmic beats and pulsating arpeggios with heavy electronics fused with a spacey psychedelic sonic treatment. The duo operates on the dance floor with a powerful performative representation creating an excursive, unforgettable experience. 

Well known for their fruitful discography, much of which is created inside the infamous Ark of Noise studios, the project's prolific output includes a variety of releases on Death & Leisure, Pinkman, and Khemia, to name a few, not to mention the front-runner 2xLP Suicide Disco (Veyl 2019), an extraordinary offering that set fire to dance floors everywhere and is also the name the duo coined to describe their sound. The release spawned a massive remix EP featuring reworks from Silent Servant, Orphx, Broken English Club, and Alexey Volkov.

In 2023 YOD releases Suicide Disco II (Veyl), a triumphant return, elevating their distinct sound and delivering 12 all-new tracks, which will also return them to the live stage to continue to captivate and further build on the project’s form and legacy.
