Sharing a common enthusiasm for electronic pop music, Olaf Himmelmann and Sandro Ringeling founded spreading point back in 1993. During their early years, the German duo self-released the albums ‘Confused Conditions’ [1994], ‘Second Step To Heaven’ [1996] and ‘… At First Sight’ [1998]. After a period of silence for more than 10 years, the band re-emerged in 2010 with the long-player ‘re-start’ followed by ‘re-start [re-mixed]’ [2013] and ‘MOMENTUM - PART I’ [2015]. spreading point stands for melodious electronic music influenced by 80s synth pop and is well-known for classic songwriting and catchy vocal lines.

“Permeate”, meaning “to spread or flow throughout”, is a word used to describe a ray of sunlight pervading a room. Most of Heliophile’s lyrics are melancholic, but carry a hint of optimism, so thi s album title is the perfect metaphor for that. Musically, Heliophile aims to create catchy and timeless songs. The relatively dense, but carefully thought out arrangements provide many clever subtleties that the listener can discover over time. Many of the sounds heard on “Permeate” were patched by hand on a modular synthesizer. This instrument is a unique combination of modules from many different manufacturers, big and small, from all over the world. Its thick and organic tones cannot be saved, so when the cables are pulled out, not even the band can bring the sounds back exactly as they were! Although Heliophile celebrates the fact that synthpop is a type of music that brings brotherhood to people all over the world, it was a long-held ambition of Gijs to sing a song in his native Dutch language. ‘Tranen van de Regen’, a very personal semi-autobiographical break-up song, was the perfect opportunity to make that wish come true. With craftmanship, passion, musicality and artistic integrity, Heliophile brings you an album you can enjoy for years to come. Fans of Mesh, Diorama and De/Vision should take notice!

Introspection, lust, pain and madness are part of this "Ecstasy". In the cover and general concept, Nordika sought to create something that evoked sensuality, emotion, frenzy. It was thanks to the participation of the model Ginette Vidal and the talented photographer Aaron Diaz "I have always wanted to make nude photos that have an aesthetic and technical justification, in this photo I wanted to achieve a sublime representation of the female body, which would lead the viewer more beyond the natural morbid " After the great "Blut" in 2016 with many collaborations, in this album Nordika sought to make a 100% Nordika album, in Alex's words, "this album sounds like we always wanted a Nordika album to sound". Nordika is very grateful for the support received on this album from Russia, to reach all corners of the world, an album made with much effort, dedication and proudly made in Mexico.

Ultranoire a German/Hungarian duo are growing in popularity in the Hungarian and foreign dark underground scene. Are due to release their long awaited second album Intronaut in January 2017 following success with their debut album Disclosure. Ultranoire approaches vintage synthpop from its darker side (somewhere in between, Kraftwerk and early Depeche Mode) combining sensual baritone vocals with some gloomy, cold mid tempo electronic sounds. The new album Intronaut is an ambitious mid tempo synthesis with a little deeper tone than their previous one. The lyrics are characterised by easily opening metaphores and pictures. Josef Stapel the bands singer/songwritrer calls these songs as a journey into the private cosmos. A dying internal entropic universe of an “Intronaut” being a person suffering from anxious depression caused by personal life crisis’. The sound was consciously designed to invoke the synth wave mood of the 80s and 90s. Intronaut contains 9 songs and 2 instrumental tracks. It will be available from January 2017 as a CD format and digital download released by ScentAir Records.
