In a time where a dark fog of bland, tasteless, toxic musical sludge clogs the airways and threatens to plug the ears of hapless victims across the world, the devotees of harmonic style desperately search for a hero, a savior which will pull them from the darkness and bring a bit of funk to their lives. 

Fortunately, they have two. And they wear spacesuits.

With a fate far worse than death menacing their fellow humans, the super-duo behind Monosurround returns with a vengeance, giving mankind not one, but four reasons to hope for a romping future. Their latest scheme comes in the form of a quartet of extravagant (re)works which put their unmistakable theatric approach to music composition boldly on display. Containing three ruthlessly relentless revamps from their own extensive catalogue and an exclusive, previously unleashed metamorphosized rendering of Canadian band ProCon’s hit “Delia”, Monosurround’s high-octane thriller packs all of the explosive action which this blockbuster duo has been counted on to provide.

The feature presentation begins with “Exploring Bulgaria – Monosurround’s Pathfinder Rework” setting an intense, heavy tone, highlighted by haunting vocal chants and a gnashing milieu of patient percussion, chipped effects and ethereal melodies. The action hits full throttle in the next act with Monosurround’s Freeway Rework of ProCon’s single “Delia”, a tough-edged vocal number bringing together their trademark panache for pop flare with an unyielding dancefloor character crossing electro-house, techno and trance. The EP rushes through to its thrilling climax with “Granite Eyes – Monosurround’s Voicebox Rework” taking the pilot’s seat, steered by impassioned vocals and rocket-powered with a vigorously explosive fireball of synthetic fury. “Arma Mortal – Monosurround’s Conflict Rework” brings a fitting close to the tempestuous tour de force, with a minimal philharmonic arrangement underlying a Spanish lyrical serenade, eventually giving way to a teasing finale that inevitably begs for a sequel.

Coming soon to a pair of ears near you. This EP has been rated B, for Badass.

Born out of a flash inspiration and musical necessity, the concept of Monosurround was first formed in 1999 in Berlin’s notorious Kreuzberg district from the restless minds of Ramtin Asadolahzadeh and Erik Schaeffer.

Monosurround wasted no time, immediately jumping into the fray with production on a pair of film soundtracks as well as a daring multi-piece live performance. They were driven by a desire to constantly re-define an ever-evolving and vibrant sound of modern electronic music. The following years saw Ramtin and Erik refine their sound and live performance, becoming a dynamic duo on stage, regularly providing the spark for dancefloors across the world with both their live sets and burgeoning DJ team. Unprecedented studio success paralleled their jet setting lifestyles, with the anthemic “I Warned You Baby” becoming a favorite of the summer of 2002, finding a home in both festivals and charts.

Further hits only reinforced Monosurround as being one of the up-and-coming providers of storming electronic club music and naughty electro-pop, with a flurry of releases on a remarkable list of labels such as Superstar Recordings, Moonbootique Records, Dream Beat, 1st Decade Records and most recently France’s leading Citizen Records (label of Vitalic). It is on this latest platform that the culmination of nearly 10 years of relentless and fanatical musical devotion gives birth to the long-awaited debut album from Monosurround, “Hello World”.
