• French EBM /industrial techno /electro /darkwave artist from Paris, SIERRA “Unpredictable” from “All about love” EP
  

Electronic music producer from Paris increasingly sharpens her production skills with a tension-filled EBM-ish, both dark and scintillating, dancefloor burner that triggers desperate and dangerous moods through the intersecting relentless pulsating drive of hypnotic, shattering mechanical beats and ominous rumbling bassline undulations, while searing synth swathes expand and swivel around airless, disconnected female vocals disintegrating doubt and fear. Fire and brimstone!   

• Bern, Switzerland analogue /synthpop /avant pop trio Eutropic “Starry Sky” from “Dream” EP off upcoming “Dark Age Day Dream” LP on Aztec Records
  

Swiss synthpop trio approaches the full-length album release with another magnificent dose of sparkling and swirling stellar synth chords, hypnotic pulsating rhythms and intense multi-faceted deep emotional croons that fall and glide, fostered with airy backing vocals, in a shuddering release of star-gazing excitement.

• California post-punk/darkwave solo project PLEASURE POLICY “Divinations” from the EP “Cemetery City”
  

A dark gem of atmospheric, gothic-tinged post-punk gloom, with echoes of The Dance Society, from the new EP of East Bay DIY artist, “Divinations” triggers driving bass line menace that rumble and vibrate, weaving droning ominous moods, swept by sparse icy synth desolation, amidst scattered off-tempo beats, pierced by sparkling and penetrating guitar stabs, to stop suddenly and gather with deep painful intensity behind distant, resigned vocals drowning in a sea of disconnected hope.
