HTRK - Work (work, work), Synthetik video

Megalicious album from HTRK (Hate Rock) originally from Melbourne but now relocated to London via Berlin.

Out on Ghostly Work (work, work)is a mindblowing claustrophobic minimal dark wave temptation that will haunt you down, its bizarre, hyper sensual and each song its just better than the one you heard before... David Lynch appears in your dreams slices your throat and looks at your eyes while you bleed to death while Ian Curtis writes a poem about it, a ritual of punishment in a forgotten cell a distant drumming and a women in silk leather laments longing words of smooth despair listening to Cocteau Twins on crack ... STUNNING !!!!!!!! 100% guaranteed to be one of the best this year and close to one band that i like a lot also Tropic Of Cancer.

Detachments @ Clube Ferroviário Lisbon 28 April

For the first time in Portugal the London Noir Synth-Pop band opens the live concerts collaboration between Audiopleasures and the super Lisbon Clube Ferroviário

"This enigmatic debut album of synth pop noir from Detachments , some two years in the making, more than distinguishes the band from their contemporaries. The promise and intrigue in the potent jagged Detachments sound that drew such creative luminaries as Andrew Weatherall, Trevor Jackson and Tim Goldsworthy to work with the band has been fully realised here.

Working with James Ford, the bands creative force Bastien Marshal has delivered an album of eleven tracks that belie any comparison with contemporary artists or bands. The eleven tracks included illustrate the Detachments ascendance to a pure synth group."

"Culled from almost 40 songs, Bastien worked day and night over a ten-day period in Hackney in the bitter snow-dusted cold of late February 2010 (our coldest in some 40 years) an experience which brought to mind the bleakness of Berlin in the midst of winter, a well trodden destination of Bastien’s.

The mutual love Minimal Wave and also the sonic experiments that emanated from the BBC Radiophonic Workshop informed the decision to fully utilise a vast array of vintage synth gear. This direction finessed the sound that seeps through every pore of their album." This Is Not An Exit Records
