“Feel and hear how the bass melody draws a simple but hypnotic pattern. The vocals seem to read out the spell, the rhythm extends the boundaries of your consciousness and the soil goes from under the feet. And a deep, slow, but confident immersion in the track begins.

“Почувствуйте и услышьте, как мелодия баса рисует простой, но гипнотический рисунок. Вокал словно зачитывает заклинание, ритм раздвигает границы вашего сознания и почва уходит из-под ног. И начинается глубокое, медленное, но уверенное погружение в трек.”

Lotus is a five-piece instrumental band that has evolved and grown over 20 plus years. They were early adopters of fusing electronic beats and sounds from dance music with jam music, but also drew on psych-rock, post-rock, disco, funk and jazz. All of these influences are present throughout ‘Tar Pits’, which evokes a sense of mystique and allure in the listener’s mind.
“Feel the speed of this furious Techno banger as it starts strong and goes on with acidic ideas. Characteristic percussive patterns gradually build up lines of deafening properties. "Komfortrauschen" truly knows how to activate your ears.”
-Nagamag.com
This acclaimed live outfit of Laurenz Karsten, Phillip Oertel and Tim Sarhan describe themselves as "three precision-obsessed control freaks that have honed their craft to a German industrial perfection." They have an uncompromising sound that welds together propulsive drums, unrepentant bass lines and searing guitars that cut through like acid. Their hedonistic live techno is crafted in analogue fashion with traditional instruments filtered through an impressive array of pedals and effects. Since forming in 2014, Komfortrauschen has played regularly at cult venues like Sisyphos, Kantine am Berghain and Kater Blau as well as all over Europe and beyond. Now they are ready for the world stage as they drop this vital debut album.
Powerful opener 'Bock' is an immediate banger, with taught, bouncing drums and rugged synth sequences permeated with flashes of acid. The visceral 'Tank' then layers up a knotted bassline and bright, searing stabs while 'Gym' is a surging and linear techno roller with scintillating percussion and sleek synth work. Lead single, 'Kapital' explores gritty broken beats and skewed pads as soulful vocal layers bring warm human emotion.
The excellent 'Da Hurt' is a prime slice of characterful techno with hooky synth motifs, slamming drums and swing in the kicks that draws you in deep. The robust Komfortrauschen sound continues with the lashing acid and hammering drums of 'Reload,' and 'KR#01' heads off into a more expansive world of cosmic melody with surging drums and widescreen chords. Finally, 'Zero' ends this most arresting record with a deeper, more undulating techno offering filled with raw percussion and well-crafted guitar lines.
‘K’ is a superb live techno album that showcases Komfortrauschen's unique sound in explosive fashion.

Artist said about this song:
"Lines of Escape is an edgy electronic song about drug use and abuse. It looks at the progression of drug use from alcohol all the way to heroin and everything in between. I used street nicknames for all the drugs. I was exploring the slippery slope of how and why we tend to get into drugs to the point that we forget that it's merely a symptom of a deeper problem in our lives."
“"THE AND" have made a buoyant approach in the scene of Electro Pop with their debut single. Sending a message from distant future, the artists express concerns about our unique planet and the surviving of life on it. Are you sensitive enough to get the meaning?”

Major Spark is Mark Goodman and producer Brian Charles. Their debut album Beautiful Noise is a stirring amalgam of garage rock, power pop, psychedelia, and synth-drenched textural soundscapes, all lovingly detailed, sturdily composed, and immediately catchy. Mark and Brian used drum loops and improvisational techniques to break free of their solid backgrounds producing dozens of indie rock albums.
Mark previously formed Magnet in 1995 when Moe Tucker from the Velvet Underground agreed to dust off her drums from the VU European reunion tour to record a full length titled Don’t Be a Penguin (PC Music/ADA). Mark also teamed with other talented musicians such as David Lowery (Cracker, Camper van Beethoven), Matt Wilson (Trip Shakespeare), and Steve Steve Schiltz (Longwave) for subsequent Magnet releases. Brian Charles is the owner of Zippah Recording Studio where he has produced and engineered excellent artists including Chad Stokes (Dispatch), The Sheila Divine, and Weakened Friends.
Major Spark aims to bring a positive vibe with lyrics that are plainspoken, sharp-witted, and instantly memorable. But there’s more to Major Spark than catchy melodies, and “Beautiful Noise,” the title track from the group’s debut, combines a classic EDM beat with vintage guitars and keys with vocals that pay homage to Hope Sandoval and James Murphy. Brian’s production on the track is spellbinding, wholly immersive, and marvelously moody. Goodman’s sense of play producing the videos shines through. For “Beautiful Noise,” director Roger Metcalf blended studio moments with female circus artists performing high above the ground, radiating grace and power with every move.
