Watch: Lewsberg Reveal New Single/Video "Six Hills"

Netherlands rock/post punk band Lewsberg have revealed the video for their new single "Six Hills".

The song is out today digitally and will be out as limited 7" on April 15th through Speedy Wunderground. Grab it here.

Speaking on the new song, Lewsberg say, “When you keep fighting over things that are really important to you, you could decide to stop arguing with people, and try killing them with kindness instead. You might find out this works. Then, accidentally, you might also find out that you don’t even have to kill. You might just as well just be kind. But it’s a thin line. Sometimes, it can even be kind to kill someone.”

Watch: Double Helix Air Debut Single/Video "Rat Rave"

London-based electronic duo Double Helix composed by Patrick Smith (Synths, Programming, Vocals), Kim Engelhardt (Bass Guitar) have aired the video for their debut single "Rat Rave".

The song, self-produced by the duo will be out tomorrow (Jan 25) and features on the Slow Dance Records 21' Compilation. Pre-order your copy here.

Formed in July 2021, Double Helix have been developing as a word-of-mouth sensation over the capital with their visceral merging of underground punk energy and the unifying rave subculture of the 90’s.

Built on a gargantuan electronic sound that falls somewhere between the acid psychedelia of Prodigy or Leftfield and the darker industrial tones of Nine Inch Nails or Boy Harsher, the duo caught the attention of Slow Dance Records at their first show back in late July 2021 (The Windmill, Brixton) and was asked to contribute a track to the labels 21’ compilation.

Rat Rave is a mantra for the unconventional raver set against a background of caustic electronica. Pitting the iconic sound of the Roland 303 against jittery, pulsating rhythms, the unrelenting five minutes culminates in an uninhibited synthetic trance fused with mechanical vocals meditating the phrase “Pain, Figure, Pressure, Obey”. 

Thematically they explain the accompanying music video:

“We wanted to create this inverted, surreal world where the juxtaposition of pain and euphoria are represented by shifts in colour. The girl in the video is an artist we know who has a hidden disability and crafts these resin sculptures from packaging of pain medication she takes. She is also a badass party goer despite this, which inspired us to feature her along with the sculptures and create this solitary, stylised day in the life of our friend.” 

The duo will have a gig at Dream Bags Jaguar Shoes on Thursday 3rd February, tickets here.
