Zylinderkopf - aka Steven Wilson-Beales - released his debut album ‘Are You There?’ in 2023. In response to the covid crisis, it presented a variety of musical styles mixed together in an effort to  escape our collective trauma - blues-driven electronica, colourful pop ballads, basic four-to-the-floor wholesome techno goodness.  

Zylinderkopf’s influences are varied - from the electronic experiments of Holger Hiller to the psychedelic richness of Hawkwind or Fever Ray. ‘The point of Zylinderkopf is that there are no boundaries’ says Steve, wistfully gazing at his copy of Baudelaire’s Fleurs du Mal.


For his second album ‘Body:Soul’ released in 2025, Steve has worked with London-based artist/producer Third Son to put the finishing touches to his album. This time, Zylinderkopf takes aim at the futility of politics and the commodification of love. “I think a love song is the pinnacle of all good songwriting - it’s just that, when I write them, they come out as these weird dark electronic things.’ 

Zylinderkopf’s third album ‘A Quiet Prayer In a Time of War’ is due to be released in early 2026. This time, there’s no singing, just a collection of musical landscapes moving between Drum and Bass, Electronica and 80s synth pop. ‘Imagine Jean Michel Jarre going out on a big night with Daft Punk and Chris De Burgh - that’s basically what you’re getting.’
