Five fresh tunes that invaded our “sonic universe” will be presented every now and then with Instant Karma. Futhermore, we invented ‘The Karmo-meter’ for you. Ready? Go!
Who: Drum & Lace
Drum & Lace, aka Sofia Hultquist, is an Italian composer, sound artist & performer.
The track: Outsider Complex Part 1
In a few words: A fine blend of experimental meets neoclassical and music concrete with intense and descriptive melody. Maestro of horror Alfred Hitchcock & definitely Bernard Herrmann would embrace this one. A stunning piece of art for open-minded music lovers!
Taken off the upcoming’semi songs’, released on July 19th.
The Karmo-meter:
Who: Blood Child
Blood Child is a (dystopic) post-punk/punk rock quintet from Denmark.
The track: Shivers Home
In a few words: These dudes hail from the land of Iceage, and waht we may say about their traxk Shivers Home, is that is an edgy dystopian post-punk/punk rock celebration with “shady” vocals and volcanic energy. Cannot wait for their soon to be released debut EP, in September. Until then….
The Karmo-meter:
Who: Famous
Famous is a London group playing art rock of the highest quality.
The track: Forever
In a few words: Singing in killer English accent in absolute despair this wicked art rock slow build-up gem, Famous present their masterpiece to us inspired by Goethe’s The Sorrows of Young Werther, and it’s the ideal soundtrack of the urban life’s void. or maybe not?
Taken form their recently released debut mini-album England.
The Karmo-meter:
Who: CHEVALIEN
CHEVALIEN is an experimental hip-hop solo project, of a French multi-instrumentalist, starting as a drummer, surrounded by two other musicians on stage.
The track: BLACK SPEECH
In a few words: Unsettling visuals in this creepy ‘black & red’ video for experimenatl crossover outfit CHEVALIEN and the track BLACK SPEECH. The sound is a heavy beast lurking in the basement ready to break that loose door and dominate! Music beyond the norm, music wild & claustrophobic. Defo, not for the faint-hearted!
The Karmo-meter:
Who: OYSTER KIDS
Los Angeles based band with a richly-texture indie sound.
The track: Breathe
In a few words: Alluring melodies, beautiful vocals and indie rock energy is throwing some light for those feling pessimistic about the demise of indie music. Yes, OYSTER KIDS are not afraid to sing some gloriously cathcy choruses that will accompany you for the rest of your day. On repeat!!!
