Unknown Album

Club Kara #1

A personal rework of one of my favorite classics ever, New Order's Blue Monday. 
I had mixed feelings the first time I heard it in some club. These dribbling bass drums were kind of weird to me. I couldn't really understand why people were mad when they recognized the track. Then, when I left, I realized the only melodies that were still around in my head were those of this pure classic. I started to listen to it and couldn't help but put it on hard rotation at home and in my studio. I became obsessed with it and even wanted to own the same hardware that was used to produce it (a few days later, I bought an Oberheim DX from some guy who claimed he signed with Virgin Records on the same day as Daft Punk). 
The original multitracks sessions are publicly available so I had to do something...so here we are. I wanted to give the track a more modern & Italo direction, while trying to respect the original vibe. 
Hope you'll enjoy it & spin it in front of passionate crowds. 
The artwork is a tribute to John Carpenter's Christine (1983), which was released a few months later.

Dystopian Tales - Summer 2022

I’m back with a rework of another all-time cut, Pet Shop Boys’ It’s A Sin. 
As someone coming from Eastern Europe I’ve been a bit overexposed to Chris & Niel’s discography because of their Go West hit, which overflooded the region in the 90’s (though it was originally a Village People song, not related to the Cold War). 
Yet, as my previous cover (New Order’s Blue Monday), this song has been haunting me for years and I couldn’t help but do something with it. While trying to respect their original intent, I tried to give it a current sound. Once more, the original multitrack session files have been made available, which is a blessing. 
Enjoy it, download it, spin it to entertain your beloved audience. 
The cover art is inspired by John Carpenter’s Prince of Darkness (1987), released the same year.

It includes a bunch of hot new records which have been released by labels I love, banger promos I received from some of the best producers at the moment, some older gems I digged recently, and two new forthcoming tracks of mine!

Dystopian Tales - Fall/Winter 2022

Back to my personal edit series! 

It’s been a busy year since my first Festival Tool released a year ago, Blue Monday.
I released 5 original tracks on Toulouse-based powerhouse Ritmo Fatale, with more to come and getting ready for a live show. 
My project is all about dealing with my musical obsessions, here’s another one which has probably been my n°1 track years ago on Spotify, in terms of rotation. 
Back in 2008, Poni Hoax was one of the most promising French indie rock bands and their album Images of Sigrid, released on Joakim’s Tigersushi records, blew my mind.If you get the chance, take the time to watch the documentary ‘Drunk in the House of Lords” , which takes a behind-the-scenes look at the life of the band.
Sadly, the singer and frontman of the band, Nicolas Ker, who also wrote most of the lyrics, passed away two years ago, aged only 50. 
Let this edit also be a tribute to the priceless musical heritage left to us by this man.

Back to sunrise vibes - the Glitter side of the project.
It’s been months since I’ve last released an edit which, as you know, is one of my favorite studio delights.

Lovelock is the moniker of Steve Moore, a major musician and producer in the synth/movie scene. His Burning Feeling album from 2012 is a new-wave and italo masterpiece which contains many gems, among which Love Reaction. This tune caught my attention because of this intoxicating chorus. 💫

This edit embodies pure high-energy vibes to be enjoyed without restraint!

Lovelock - Love Reaction (Karassimeon Edit)

Hailing from Paris with Bulgarian roots, @Karassimeon is obsessed with Disco and EBM, hence his motto “Glitter & Leather”. 

He has released a string of tracks on Toulouse based label Ritmo Fatale in 2023, delivering his distinctive blend of Cold Wave, EBM and Italo. Beyond the initial support he was granted by Kendal and Pablo Bozzi, his productions are gathering growing support in the scene by the likes of Marie Davidson, David Carretta, Avalon Emerson, The Magician, Curses and Jennifer Cardini.

Already heard on radio stations like Rinse FM and KEXP, his music has also graced the stage of venues such as Badaboum and Petit Bain in Paris, Macadam in Nantes or the Grauzone Festival in The Hague. 

His encounter with Ombra International found its perfect embodiment in his new single STSFXN, a fervent tribute to his initial passions within the EBM genre, such as Nitzer Ebb and Front 242.

Relentlessly researching new soundscapes in his studio, Karassimeon is already delivering his new live electronic show on tour in 2024, with releases scheduled on favorite labels such as Ritmo Fatale and Bordello A Parigi.

' Next in our 'A UFO' free edit series is Karassimeon’s masterful rendition of ‘Los Niños Del Parque’ by the legendary wave group Liaisons Dangereuses. Renowned for his consistently slick productions, the Parisian artist captures the essence of the city’s iconic sound from the 2000s, infused with his signature mind-bending modern flair.


Combining the original commanding vocals with a unique electro twist, Karassimeon elevates ‘Los Niños Del Parque’ to exhilarating heights. Lasers whip throughout the edit, punctuating each bar while the arrangement slices through beautifully detailed, intoxicating spaces. This unstoppable dancefloor gem encapsulates the irresistible energy of the seminal 1982 release whilst bringing 2025 a refreshing tone. '

Karassimeon - AETHERNOVA EP
[Ritmo Fatale 022]
releases April 25, 2025

Soundcloud : @karassimeon

All tracks are written, produced, mixed and mastered by Karassimeon.
Artwork : Splitsaber.exe

Karassimeon, one of Ritmo Fatale’s key producers and performers, returns to the label with his new EP, Aethernova.

The EP delivers an introspective and intense journey in two phases.

It begins with a descent into darkness, driven by cinematic, tense EBM—Karassimeon’s signature style. Panique Synthétique embraces a bold, modernized electroclash, while Analog Anxiety oscillates between the clinical chill of a Dopplereffekt-scored basement and the unsettling strangeness of a haunted mansion.

The shift arrives with Aethernova, the title track, where dissonant pads pave the way for a brighter, more hopeful breakbeat—an element the artist often explores in his live sets. The journey ends with Final Flash, a liberating italo-trance anthem marked by a vocal hook that lights the way out: “take me to the stars.”

Karassimeon - Aethernova [Ritmo Fatale 022] (138 BPM)

Karassimeon - Analog Anxiety [Ritmo Fatale 022] (138 BPM)

Karassimeon - Final Flash [Ritmo Fatale 022] (137 BPM)

Karassimeon - Panique Synthétique [Ritmo Fatale 022] (134 BPM)

I make music hoping to resolve my conflicting obsessions : Disco, EBM and dystopian movie scores.
