Real Life (180 gram translucent pink vinyl LP + insert)
Cat: HERTZ 076. Rel: 15 Nov 24
Review: Silent EM has never been silent. The one-man coldwave act formed in early-2010s NYC by one Jean Lorenzo is a raucous sound-maker, and his new sonic octant Real Life is yet another vampophony. This one follows 2019's industrial darkwave brooder 'The Absence', which had a more modernistic, skeletal sound. Real Life sounds reconstituted and denser by comparison, like Dracula stood upright, wiping his phizog after a fresh cadaver. In fact, Lorenzo's feeling so sanguine, he's willing to explore new genre fusions, with the exemplary 'Versions Of Hell' mixing post-punk and hardcore donk, and 'Survive' sounding like Sisters Of Mercy remake the Dark City theme tune. Batwinged banger 'Europa' flies at peak velocity, and in our opnion is the catchiest track, topping its hook off with an ashen white vocal line from fellow artist Xarah Dion.

Review: sir Was is the alter ego of Gothenburg-based multi-instrumentalist and producer Joel Wastberg. A graduate from one of Sweden's most prestigious music college, his first foray into the industry-proper came when Jose Gonzalez invited him to join the band Junip. From there, pals in the band Little Dragon encouraged him to pursue a solo career and realise his own ideas under his own steam. Having collaborated with the likes of Teleman, Gengahr, Falle Nioke, Caspar Clausen (Efterklang) and Seb Wildblood, sir Was clearly has one foot in pop and another in synth, electronic and dance music, although on We Can Go Anywhere From Here he seems to be somewhere entirely of his own devising. Sweet, strange, sing-along yet anything but commercial, his latest long form isn't something you'll forget in a hurry.

Review: Born from the success of Soft Cell's triumphant *Happiness Not Included record, the iconic and somewhat elusive - five studio LPs in 41 years - Soft Cell have decided to go all in with a package of alternative rides, previously unreleased mixes, and single-only B-sides. Nothing here featured on the original LP, and there are a few bonus workouts of stuff not from the source album, too. Cover versions of Fad Gadget's 'Back to Nature', X-Ray Spec's 'The Day The World Turned Day Glo', and a freshly minted take on the Cell's own landmark 'Last Chance' all elevate this, not that people were likely to have needed another reason to stick it in their basket. A great example of why less is more, but generosity is the secret to true satisfaction.

The Space Lady's Other Hits (Record Store Day RSD 2024) (limited clear vinyl LP)
Cat: LSSN 090. Rel: 02 May 24
Review: Originally released as a bonus CD accompanying The Space Lady's Greatest Hits, The Space Lady's Other Hits arrives as a special release for Record Store Day and makes its debut on vinyl. Culled from the same 1990 recording sessions that birthed the original, this limited clear vinyl edition offers yet more otherworldly sonic journeys from the cult figure. The Space Lady's street performances, captured live and in one take, transport you into a unique musical dimension. Here she covers the likes of Elvis Presley's 'All Shook Up' and Irving Berlin's 'Puttin' On The Ritz', but each track undergoes a transformative reinterpretation with ethereal vocals and accompanied by mad effects manipulation. A real cult classic.

Eine Aufnahme Voller Widerlicher Verderbtheit (3xLP + poster)
Cat: LXRC 50. Rel: 20 Feb 25
Review: Born and raised in Bern, Switzerland, Michael Antener spent most of the 1980s concerned with interpreting the subconsciously and overtly apocalyptic discourse of that time through the medium of industrial-edged, dark feeling music. "I found a niche where I could express myself, along with other people who were not afraid of dark themes," he's quoted as saying in retrospect, before going on to explain that singing about love would have been more difficult than using "cries of pain taken from horror movies". This triple vinyl collector's item celebrates that fertile, if angry and dystopian period in Antener's life. Bringing together work from two of his formative projects, The Stranger of the Swamp and Bande Berne Crematoire, what's here is captivating. Electroclash with groove, distressed collages of noise, a certain sense of sonic expressionism - all brooding shadows, menacing arrangements and deeply unsettling moods.

Review: Berlin-based synthwave and dark disco band Dina Summer return with a sanguine new seven-track record, continuing their reputation for making 80s nostalgist music fans ever more ravenous for their distinct take on EBM and its adjacent styles. Following 2022's acclaimed Rimini LP, this freak zone of a record brings gravely detuned, yet DJ-ready instrumental backings and stiffly but passionately delivered vocal recitations to a modern production palate. This approach reaches its ultimate conclusion on the natural midpoint 'Alien', a track perhaps best describable as a hi-NRG number made in a cryoponic chamber and lent an extraterrestrial theme.

The Angel Of The West Window (gatefold 2xLP (side 4 etched))
Cat: KSCOPE 1226. Rel: 04 Jul 24
Review: This new reissue of The Angel From The West Window by Tangerine Dream's showed the returned back to their electronic music roots in 2011. Departing from the mellower tones that characterized some of their 90s output, the band's latest album at the time delved into more challenging and orchestral electronic landscapes. The Angel of the West Window, inspired by the works of German author Gustav Meyrink, showcases a revitalised sound: pulsating sequencers, expansive synthesized textures, and evocative electric guitar solos dominate the album. Collaborating with Thorsten Quaeschning, Froese infuses the tracks with dynamic rhythmic foundations and ethereal electronic layers, creating an edgy and immersive sonic experience. Electric violin accents add a haunting depth to the compositions, enhancing their atmospheric quality. Standout tracks like 'The Mysterious Gift to Mankind' and 'Living in Eternity' highlight Tangerine Dream's ability to blend synthetic and organic elements seamlessly. The album's thematic richness and sensitive melodies evoke a cinematic scope, making it ideal for both introspective listening and atmospheric settings. Long-time fans have welcomed this resurgence, celebrating Tangerine Dream's return to form and their enduring influence on electronic music. Tangerine Dream's musical legacy and innovative spirit is part of electronic music history. Fans of their Virgin records output should really enjoy this album.

Finnegans Wake (limited gatefold 2xLP (side 4 etched))
Cat: KSCOPE 1227. Rel: 12 Sep 24
Review: If you're trying to work out where in Tangerine Dream's back catalogue Finnegans Wake fits, then good luck. According to our sources, this is "roughly the group's 125th release". So it's remarkable just how fresh and forward thinking the record sounds, given most people start running out of original ideas once they reach adulthood, let alone make it past the first two LPs. First released in 2011, eight tracks launch us towards the stratosphere on a rocket of synths and electric guitars, chords soaring ever higher as the background symphony of glitter and chime invoke images of stardust falling over an ocean of zodiacal light below. If that's too conceptual, then let's just say this is progressive kosmische Kraut at its most epic and bold. Just like the rest of their output, then.

Review: TR/ST's Performance emerges as a striking testament to the project's evolution, now presented on eye-catching yellow vinyl. The fourth studio album from Robert Alfons, formerly known as Trust, dives deep into a haunting synth-pop universe crafted with the help of Night Feelings. Recorded in Los Angeles, this collection is a masterclass in balancing eerie synths, foggy low end, and Alfons's raw, emotive crooning.
The album's title reflects a friend's casual observation of Alfons's intrinsic performative essence. Tracks like 'Soon' burst with anthemic new wave hooks and caustic lyrics, while others such as 'All At Once' and 'The Shore' showcase a dramatic interplay between beauty and bitterness. Alfons's voice, both a tempest and an anchor, delivers a stream-of-consciousness narrative that navigates through realms of dread, lust, and emotional upheaval. Performance offers a mesmerising blend of melancholic grandeur and intense production, transforming each song into an immersive, emotional journey. With its unique soundscape and compelling storytelling, this album promises to impress and unsettle in equal measure.

Trans Active Nightzone (hand-numbered LP + insert limited to 150 copies)
Cat: HERTZ 078. Rel: 25 Jul 24
Review: Formed in 2005 between Keen K (Divider), Dirk-Torben Klein (Echo West, Silent Signals, Flashbacks) and Niclas Bruckner, Trans Active Nightzone are a fin de millenaire coldwave and synthpop act, whose interest in said sounds came at just the right time: not too early to be mere products of their time, and not too late to become glossy pastiches either. Influenced heavily by Joy Division, Killing Joke and They Might Be Giants, as well as early 80s minimal wave and adjacent synthpop offshoots, their self-titled record was an infectious indulgence of modern production techniques welded to an established style, suturing a crisp but no less bulbous sound. The surreality of their music is best heard on 'In Dreams', whose piquant twang-leads and demure choruses conjure first-person visions of reeling through an impossible dream-metropolis, and 'Logical & Interfered', where things grow much graver and obscener, as the vocalists work together as certain lyrical accomplices to indict the future system of heinous retroactive crimes against humanity.

A Requiem (limited red corona vinyl LP)
Cat: TPLP 1944LTD2. Rel: 03 Apr 25
Review: Brighton-based Australian vocalist, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Penelope Trappes shares her fifth album, requiescing ten captive ambient soundscapes, all of which share the aim of integrating dreamsand nightmares, grief and personal empowerment. Through the use of carnal, transcendent cello drones, Trappes explores historical and generational traumas in a chilling piece of gothic experimentalism. In a residential prelude, Trappes trapped herself in Scotland, eking remote studio solitude as a cranny in which to unleash personal demons, exploring and transmuting familial chaos and history. Raw and spiritually charged, the album offers a powerful meditation on loss; its threat, its meaning, and the process of coming to terms with it.

Dreamweaver (limited clear vinyl LP + insert + sticker + MP3 download code)
Cat: IMR 52LP. Rel: 12 Sep 24
Review: The first new music from Trentemoller since 2022 proves to be his furthest foray into the area of dream pop and shoegaze-esque alternative sounds yet. Two bands are obvious reference points here, namely Cocteau Twins - see the dreamy, hazy 'Empty Beaches' and the vocals of Icelandic singer Disa, throughout - and The Cure, whose dark-edged instrumentation provides a grounding counterpoint to the more shimmering, ethereal sounds. That's far from the whole story though. There are other treats like 'I Give My Tears', with a searing Mary Chain vibe, and the beatless centrepiece 'Hollow', not to mention subtle electronic embellishments throughout, proving there are many musical facets to what's going on here. One for the dark nights ahead, for sure.

Into The Great Wide Yonder (reissue) (gatefold 2xLP)
Cat: IMR 02LPRP. Rel: 06 Feb 25
Review: Studio album two from Danish electronic icon Trentemoller was a landmark for the producer and DJ. Already more than a decade into his career, and with a strong fanbase among techno, alternative electronica, and ambient listeners, this was the difficult second that cemented his status among the upper echelons of synth artistes. Destined to outlast the scenes and sounds from which they emerge. Producing a number of hit tracks - 'Sycamore Feeling' is still up there with Trentemoller's most recognised and beloved pieces - Into The Great Wide Yonder peaked at number two in the Danish Albums Chart, hit the Top 40 in the German album chart, and would receive double silver certification from the Independent Music Companies Association within a year - 40,000 copies sold (at time when sales were flatlining) - giving some idea as to how universally loved it is.

Review: Frankfurt's Gregor Tresher returns with his first album in eight years. The 16-track LP offers up his famously dynamic techno sound and rich synth designs with element of dance floor clout underpinning each tune. From his beginnings in Frankfurt's 90s techno scene to collaborations with icons like Depeche Mode, Moby and Extrawelt, Tresher's career has been marked by critically acclaimed releases and False Gods is one of his most ambitious projects yet. It's an accomplished and introspective journey through modern electronic music enriched by collaborations with some notable friends.

Joyland (reissue) (gatefold 'lava' orange & yellow vinyl 2xLP (indie exclusive))
Cat: 827590 087125. Rel: 25 Sep 24
Review: Synth-pop, cold wave, dark wave, EBM, future pop. Whatever label you want to give Joyland, the second studio album from Canadian electronic music project TR/ST, one truth is undeniable - this is unashamedly overt and unapologetically futurist in sound, and the tracks big enough to fill a main stage and then some. Opening on 'Slightly Floating', a rare moment of calm before the storm, once second tune 'Geryon' drops it's game over in many ways. You're in, and there's no way out. That said, it's not all rave horn synths and bounding kicks drums. 'Are We Arc' is as weird, trippy and opiate as they come, like the twisted fever dream of a cabaret duet. Or something similar. 'Four Gut' is a wobbly tech-hued workout, and the title track probably owes as much to hardcore as anything else.

Review: There's something transportive about Odd Balade. The real question is, where does it take us to? Potentially very different places from the next listener, with much of what's here opaque enough to produce varying interpretations from a variety of ears. Even if we were all thinking and experience it in the same way, the sheer breadth of the tracks themselves would still invoke changeable responses. 1980s goth-wave, leftfield pop, haunting ethereality, medieval-hued folk tones, and that's really just off the top of our heads. Tiphaine Belin, AKA Trypheme, is certainly capable of conjuring a multitude of feelings, but Odd Balade makes more big statements than that - it reaffirms the artist as an esteemed producer and songwriter, not just an incredible vocalist. A record deserving of serious attention, to say the least.
