Curses Announces New LP 'Incarnadine', Airs "Blood Oath"

Berlin-based nu-disco/house/techno producer Luca Venezia aka Curses has announced the release of his second studio album 'Incarnadine'.

The 10-track record features collaborations with Jennifer Touch and TERR and will be out on March 11 via Jennifer Cardini’s label Dischi Autunno. Pre-order your copy here.

Conceptual in style and nature, Curses has described the influence and inspiration behind the record himself.

“The album is a dialogue between the inner self and outer, and romance of eternal and immortal existence. Hence the first track ‘Miriam’ being a ballad to the vampiress main character in The Hunger book and film from the 80s. How do we make an emotion timeless?“

 

Curses has been a prominent figure in Berlin’s underground electronic music community – a resident DJ for Berlin’s infamous Pornceptual party, he also established his own label Ombra INTL in 2016.

The music on the new album is cinematic at times, drawing upon influences from 80’s culture and synth prog. A limited edition vinyl will also be released in collaboration with Parisian fashion house Saint Laurent celebrating the release.

New Entry: Johnny Hunter Return With New Single "Cry Like A Man"

Australian post punk/alt band Johnny Hunter have returned with their new single "Cry Like A Man".

The song is out now through Cooking Vinyl Australia. Get it here.

Behind 'Cry Like A Man': 

"Cry Like A Man calls upon the embracism of vulnerability. Men often abuse their masculinity to shield their vulnerability, in doing so they jeopardise the balance of the two dualities, they lose their sense of humanity and sense of self, to satisfy the ​​self-aggrandizing fallacy that the world belongs to them. 

I had been placed in the unfortunate position of witnessing someone shrink into very selfish and abusive behaviour. It had been my first encounter with such an event and it shook me to my core. After the dust had settled, I couldn't help but dissect it. 

A special song as it was written the first time I interacted with our producer Jack. The violent lyrics set the tone for the song and unravel the events that took place on that fateful night, written in a 6 hour brainstorm with Jack as I manically yelled lyrics whilst he then pulled them apart" - Nick Hutt.
