Best of 2014 - The Album List

It's less than ten days before we send off another music year into history. From this perspective it was great, but the years that come will tell. We almost gave up blogging, but came back. It was great to hear the Horrors returning with another great album which somehow went unnoticed. Lust for Youth proved that they can also be pop and even more. Ronika's electro dance got us on our feet. We meet the People at Parties which are our newcomers of the year and lots more.
This is the official album list of 2014.


01. The Horrors- Luminous
02. Lust for Youth- International
03. Ronika- Selectadisc
04. People at Parties- People at Parties
05. Sebastien Schuller- Heatwave
06. Future Islands- Singles
07. Lykke Li- I Never Learn
08. Beck- Morning Phase
09. Temples- Sun Structures
10. Manic Street Preachers- Futurology

In Conversation: People at Parties

 People at Parties came as one of the best discoveries in 2014 and we are already thinking about naming them as our newcomer of the year. Very impressive, prolific and brilliant what these girls managed to deliver this year. A real new wave music inferno combining influences from both sides of the Atlantic. People at Parties are LK Naps (Vocals) Kelly Harris (drums) and Becky Kupersmith (synths). The bands first official full length self titled release came out November  2013 in digital form with official vinyl release in February 2014. Their debut album which combines dirty lo/fi electro with underground synth pop has certainly been a great soundtrack for our 2014 and we do hope to hear more of them in 2015. About this and more, find out in this exclusive interview below.

2014:  Edna Leshowitz

WAW: Kline Coma Xero- Mannequin

Kline Coma Xero is one of the brand new acts coming from Seattle based Medical records, a label know for a very distinctive and experimental minimal synth styles. The band was mainly influenced by the sterile and isolated iconography of authors such as Philip K. Dick, William Gibson and JG Ballard. The sound scapes are analogue spanning a realm of styles from experimental noise, tape loops and early industrial. We are presenting the video for their song "Mannequin" which was released this year. You might notice a Kraftwerk refernce in both vision and musical style.



WAW: Tempers- Hell Hotline

Tempers have announced a brand new video for the song "Hell Hotline" which is one of our favorite tunes this year. The video was revealed through their Youtube channel and was directed by Bela Borsodi. This is their third and final single for this year. We hope for their debut album in 2015. 


Psychic TV Release New Album 'Snakes'

Psychic TV will release a brand new album entitled 'Snakes' on Angry Love Productions. This is their first album since 2009 and musically it touches on various parts of Psychic TV's 35-year history. This LP will be a limited run of 1,000 copies bearing stunning five-color artwork and will have the trademark "random recycled vinyl" color process, meaning each copy of the vinyl will be completely unique in color. 'Snakes' is out next week, December 12th, 2014.
