ATLS PLAZA N.D. - ME / NOT ME Release Date: November 22, 2021 Duration: 13:59 Genre: Vaporwave / Trance Origin: Washington , USA As the season dies, I tend to succumb to midlife nostalgia and driving more slowly. ATLS PLAZA N.D. is my personal favourite for this summer, the artist that captures the mood perfectly and isn’t afraid to study different areas within the established and somewhat oversaturated genre. The American based producer has an interesting backstory that highlights his creative endeavours. The artist behind ATLS PLAZA N.D. comes from the metal community, being really into the most extreme of its branches like black and death, as well as all kinds of japanese rock and metal too. The roots, influence and heritage of darker crafts is distinctive in the works of ...

  Picture Credit: Born A Ghost Artwork: Ruben Labarca Born A Ghost — Shun The Believer / Neurotic Release Date: April 20, 2021 Label: selfrelease Format:  Digital Genre:   Post Metal /   Drone / Death Doom Origin:  Tacoma,  Washington, USA    A royal gift for fans of old Neurosis and Cult of Luna from Sovereign and Leaving the Chapel Town era respectively. The two song EP from the mysterious project from Tacoma, Washington is a real treat for fans of the oppressive and eerie atmosphere created by a guitar drone a la Sunn O))), samples and crushing heavy riffs of Yob "Burning The Altar" style. Although there is only one such riff here, believe me, it will be enough for you to make the corners of your lips sink lower and lower to form a "reverse smile" of maximum riff respect, and your head slowly nodding rhythmically to the beat of the music. The vocals are simple but varied: samples, whispers and ... demonic growl. All this creates a ver...

Chip Roberts and Kurtis Skinner from Seattle, Washington are Dual Analog. Since 2019, the duo has released four singles that merge electronic and analogue sounds. The style of Dual Analog combines the sounds of the 80s and early 90s with contemporary dance music. More precise, you can hear Synthwave, Darkwave and Prog Metal enveloped in a modern EDM fashion. Therefore, Dual Analog produce electronic tunes with moog synthesizers and decorate them with catchy and rolling bass lines. The footwork is provided by dynamic polyrhythms from the drum machine. And those rhythms are intense! Dual Analog give you the choice whether you prefer eclectically dancing in an EDM manner or if you prefer to bang your head. The latter is due to the Prog and Heavy Metal guitar riffs that stand above the electronic synthie patterns.
