U → Full Moon / Black Hole
Posted August 28 2024
FULL MOON/ BLACK HOLE is the first release on Lex Records from the music based concept artist U.
This formidable double A-side single is comprised of two stern, industrialised workouts functioning in the murky, under-explored area where gothtronica combines with authoritative EBM.
Slicing samples from an untapped musical realm where electronically tinged post-punk segued into new wave, experimental pop and eventually early rudimentary house.
Both of these tracks carry hints of that era’s melodic archetypes and employ merciless rhythms to hammer them into the psyche. The standalone release acts as a companion to upcoming 8-track EP on Lex, and follow’s March’s expansive ‘Parade/Watchers’ 12” on Erol Alkan’s Phantasy Sound and 2020’s acclaimed ‘Lowlands’ EP and 2016’s ‘Why Did I Pick Vienna To Use As A Metaphor For Rest of Your Life?’ LP released on Where to Now?
Artwork and design by NY based interdisciplinary artist Eric Timothy Carlson.
