Having difficultly locating where to buy this music? Since most stores in the U.S. don’t stock music from the genres we play it can be a real pain, but you can go our route: mail order. We use the online store Isolation Tank. Many labels, such as Metropolis Records, also offer CDs, and most artists have posted their libraries on their own sites, such as Bandcamp, or at the major digital outlets, such as iTunes, Amazon, etc
Gold Pick of the Month
In Strict Confidence - The Hardest Heart
The Hardest Heart is a perfect combination of classic electro/EBM elements and dramatic dark alternative. The new album is beautifully diverse, allowing the listener to dive into a mix of emotions. Dennis Ostermann's signature vocals & emotive lyrics anchor an album that is electronically aggressive, deeply melancholic & boldly danceable. In Strict Confidence's finest work to date.
Paradise Pick of the Month
Eisfabrik - Achtzehnhundertunderfroren
Second album by the very HOT (despite their name...) German Dark Electro project! Musically, the band fluctuates somewhere between dark electro and future pop with a clear focus on catchiness and cool harmonies! The sound is not comparable to any previously known band..
Maus Pick of the Month
Eisfabrik - Achtzehnhundertunderfroren
Already 200 years ago the electro-pop pioneers from the EISFABRIK came up with the idea for their current album. This work of art was already conceived in the year 1816, the "year without summer", and bears the name "eighteen hundredth of a century". In the North American region the album was already called "Eighteen hundred and frozen to death",
