Cruel Fate

PREMIERE CDL || Perdí La Luz - A Different Time (Jennifer Touch Remix) [Death Decay Magic] (2023)

Showcasing the breadth and depth of the current EBM/dark disco scene Curses' new compilation, Next Wave Acid Punx DEUX, runs the gamut from punishing industrial to techno through to post-punk experiments and romantic gothic electro-pop. It's in the latter two categories that Fat Cat Records' Jennifer Touch falls into with her exclusive contribution, Altars, an atmospheric new wave pop song where electro rhythms collide with desolate, windswept synths and Touch's yearning vocals to haunting effect.

Next Wave Acid Punx DEUX

Jennifer Touch - Altars [Eskimo Recordings]

Wasted Time

Jennifer Touch – a name that most likely will ring various bells in the ears of those who have been monitoring the recent proceedings within the Riotvan camp. Just remember her vocal refinement of the New World EP and her (still newsworthy) contribution to the „Familiar Faces No.1“ label compilation. After a collaborative EP with Keinemusik’s own Adam Port, released on Pets Recordings, her time has come for an ultimate declaration of independence.

You may consider „Feeling C“ a mini-album, if you will. A five tracker rounded out with a digital only bonus called „It To Come“. A body of work coming at you like long lost gems dropping off a pile of dust covered tapes recorded in the 80ies. Touch is far from copycatting, though. We are all aware of an ongoing cultural nostalgia, an ubiquitous vintage mush that’s produced by every second kid in possession of some synth plugins and a worn out copy of “Speak and Spell” courtesy of its older sister. You won’t have to spoon it out in this very case. Jennifer Touch’s comprehension of the 80s is way more empathic, not interested in mere sound-mimicry but all the more devoted to the faithful studies of this receding sound era.

That’s already blatantly obvious within the opener „Feeling C“. Flitting synths combined with raw EBM bounce and Touch’s signature vocal performance haunting itself in the echoes of a ripped open delay. The following „Sell“ dips in depths of bass before it hurdles the low pass filter and evokes hints of past guilty pleasures in its prominent hook. Let's say: early Human League meets Valerie Dore. Then, in „Elec“, there’s this sweet  Q Lazarus vibe going on, panning out in a wide, almost instrumental enactment. A track to which (in order to stick to the reference) Buffalo Bill would gladly clamp his doodle between the legs and dance in front of a mirror. „Wordless“ is more of an interplay between spoken word insertions and flashing melodies, shaped to be the coldest of those floor hitters. Finally, the determining „No One“ is aiming for expansion with layers of vocal- and synth-tracks that add up to an almost ecstatic, dreamlike erosion of anything contemporary.

So here we are with Riotvan's second installment of the "Familiar Faces", showcasing what's happening with the label these days (a lot), making label-residents shake hands and welcome affiliated folks to the syndicate. Although this is a 'various artists'-format, the here gathered stylistic approaches and track-turned mindsets make a strikingly coherent body of work. Just another evidence of how Riotvan has evolved into a renowned think tank of likeminded artists and indicator of state of the art sonic bliss. 

Kicking off we find Perel immersing in yet another synth-driven stream, seeking continuation to her latest, widely praised full length-cycle, but this time bypassing Venus or rather "Super Venus" while floating off to other otherworldly dimensions.

Next in line are Black Spuma, i.e. Lauer and Fabrizio Mammarella, demonstrating via "Drumbaeck" what a match in Neo-Disco-heaven they are. A highly energetic beat, laying the grounding for a cheerful synth-hook and harmonies you won't get out of your head anytime soon.

Same goes for "Tropical Redux", the follow up by none other than Panthera Krause. A particularly elated affair, carried out by a funked up bassline and a catchy string-theme, sticking its neck out in Disco-realms, while maintaining a primetime-adjusted groove.

At this point it's about time for a premiere. Say hi to New Hook, an all-female power-force with their debut release. "FXART" comes as a well-versed exercise in reviving frigid 80ies leanings with a contemporary urgency and attitude. And that's just a glimpse on what's to come from Linda, Ilka and Juliane.

Chinaski, definitely no stranger to the Riotvan family, is taking on the 80ies vibe and hands in "Zeichen der Zeit", an unhasting ride through various galaxies, combining nostalgic synth-aesthetics with spaced out futurism.

Closing things off, it's label-mainstay Jennifer Touch cutting deep with "Bleed", an almost existentially emotive composition, exploring spiritual abysses lyrically, re-modelling emotional chaos within the overtones of the arrangement and even trimming things down to physical functionality within the track's progression.

"Familiar Faces Nº2" will be out end of October 5th on Vinyl and digital formats, both being distributed by Muting The Noise. Artwork courtesy of Karen from Studio M21N.

PRE-ORDER

Jennifer Touch - Bleed (Snippet)

Let's lower our heads in gratitude and move our feet in elation, it's the resurgence of https://soundcloud.com/jennifertouch on Riotvan. We've witnessed her dropping a substantial cycle named "Feeling C" on the label a couple of years ago and just praised her contribution to the second "Familiar Faces" Compilation. 

Now it's time for her second artist EP on the label, and what a display of evolution and further refinement of her unique style it is! Eponymous and evidently the centrepiece of this release, "Chemistry" stirringly showcases the state of Jennifer's artistic progression. Within the whole retro-mania of 80ies induced club music, you rarely find an artist being as deeply immersed in the affective reverberation of old synthesizers, as her. You rarely come across someone who literally bleeds her heart into these bars of Postpunk- and Wave-kissed dreariness. And Jenny bleeds a lot these days. At the same time "Chemistry" demonstrates a more concise and focussed songwriting. It might be the tune that joins the moving and touching qualities of her craftswomanship as a songwriter in the most splendid way so far. A tune offering to take its hand. And its hand we all shall take.

Orchid-AM presents Unity. 

While scientists are working on finding a cure for the COVID-19 virus, we, humans, can only spread love and support each other. Orchid-AM can only spread love through music and by uniting artists and clubs that are kept apart at these difficult times. 

We have asked producers and musicians represented by the agency to come up with some new music in one week, and then name it after a club they hold close to their heart. We have packed it all in a ten-tracks compilation released digitally via Bandcamp, in hope for a return to normality soon. 

All sales will be equally shared between artists and clubs.

Live Musician, Producer and DJ - deeply involved in a Post-Wave-Cold-Pop-Acid-Romance.

Showcasing her unique sound in the saturated world of electronica, J Touch successfully draws from Electro, Pop and Dark Wave influences, combining 80’s vintage synths with industrial soundscapes, delivered with a visceral Post-Punk snarl. You’ll rarely find an artist today so devoted to sound or as deeply immersed in the affective reverberation of old synths. Creating a safe space for herself and for others to sink into is more a need than a simple desire, because to Touch music is like life - incalculable, rich in experience and emotion, and most of all unlimited.
