[STAATSEINDE] Netherlands
Synthpop/ EBM / Electropunk
The interstellar cosmonauts from Staatseinde have landed their spaceship in 2006 to bring their sound, described as ’Neue-Niederländische-Welle’ (New Dutch Wave) to earth.
Staatseinde creates a theatrical mix of pulsing electro with nostalgic hopeful synthlines, all performed live with synthesizers, a sequencer and tantalizing vocals. From Wave to EBM, from NDW to Punk and everything else in and out of the box. It is like going to a club meeting Kraftwerk on speed and The Sex Pistols on Acid.
They performed on many occasions ranging from huge festivals, to small underground concerts, nightclubs, art spaces and radio shows. The last couple of years they tour occasionally around Europe.
MAJESTOLUXE (Sweden)
Industrial/ EBM/ Experimental/ 80's
Bass lines covered in concrete dust and beats infested with severe rust damage. Majestoluxe's music
is firmly rooted in 80's industrial and EBM. Add equal parts brutal techno and experimental
electroacoustic art music, and you have a recognizable yet modern sounding concoction. RIYL: Cabaret Voltaire, Kris Baha, DAF, Detriti Records, The Klinik, SPK.
Majestoluxe is the moniker of Stockholm (Sweden) based Conny Fornbäck, graduated at EMS Elektronmusikstudion in the same city.
All music is exclusively created using a huge modular synth system.
Add to that forays into AI voice synthesis, tape manipulations
and other highly experimental techniques.
Since 2019 he has released three albums on Kess Kill Records,
one 7”industrial ballad on åtåmåtån and a dance 12” on Giant Dynamo, which all have been extremely well received by both audience and critics. Live shows 2023 includes a tour of southern Sweden and Denmark, shows in San José (Costa Rica) and Mexico City, and later a tour through northern France and Belgium.
Majestoluxe is also a prolific remix-artist, who’s made published remixes for Emmon, Spankthenun, ZackZackZack, Aux Animaux, Adore, Svaj, Abstract Armature Collapse, a>m and others.
NAAKKA (Finland/ Tampere)
Queer/ EBM/ Industrial/ Synthpunk
Naakka is a recent project from Tampere that L'appel du Vide loves.
Naakka is a non-binary, anti-fascist EBM cabaret from Tampere.
Naakka's sound borrows elements of the 80's Vancouver/Belgium EBM scene and throws dark Synthpop elements into their synthpunk whirlpool with a twist of self-irony. Political and argumentative lyrics and live-visuals play a central role in Naakka's mischievous entertainment package.
