Konstantin Unwohl – Neuer Wall LP
¥3,980
Tapete Records – TR562 (2024) 先着でアーティストのハンドメイドワッペンプレゼント(写真5) ドイツ,ハンブルクを拠点に活動するアーティスト Korbinian Scheffoldは近年, ソロプロジェクトKonstantin Unwohlでいくつかのカセットをリリースしました。2021年,ベルリンのカルトレーベルaufnahme+wiedergabeからデビューアルバムをリリース。 そこで彼は自分の音楽スタイルを完成させた。ミニマルなダークウェーブと現代的なシンセポップのミックス。"Neuer Wall"ではKonstantin Unwohlが自らの手で企画, 作曲, プロデュースした極めて強力な2ndアルバムをリリース。これらのトラックはKonstantin Unwohlのシンセサイザー, ドラムマシン, サンプラーのコレクションによる軽快なメロディーと力強いビートが特徴です。 リズムの中には郊外の電車が近づいてくるようにだらだらと続くものもありますが, パフォーマンスがピークに達すると再びダンスフロアに戻ってきます。"Neuer Wall"はこのようにアナログ的な贅沢とデジタル的な慎みのバランスをうまくとっている。オマージュと批評が同時に交錯するこのアルバムには, ほとんど消えかかった希望が一本の糸のように張り巡らされているが, シニシズムに陥ることはない。魅力に満ちたKonstantin Unwohlは 日常を解体し, ノスタルジックな瞬間と時代精神をうまく混ぜ合わせている。 Genre: Minimal Electro / Minimal New Wave/ Synth Pop / Post-Punk. With his solo project Konstantin Unwohl, Hamburg-based artist Korbinian Scheffold has released several cassettes in recent years. 2021 saw the release of his debut album on the Berlin-based cult label aufnahme+wiedergabe. On it, he perfected his musical style; a mixture of minimalist darkwave and contemporary synth-pop. With “Neuer Wall”, Unwohl now presents an extremely strong 2nd album, conceived, written and produced entirely by himself. The tracks are characterised by light-footed melodies and powerful beats from Unwohl's collection of synthesizers, drum machines and samplers. Some of the rhythms drag along like an approaching suburban train, only to propel us back onto the dance floor when we reach peak performance. Neuer Wall thus manages the balancing act between analogue extravagance and digital modesty. Homage and criticism at the same time, this album is pervaded by an almost extinguished hope by a thread, but without losing itself in cynicism. Full of charm, Konstantin Unwohl deconstructs the everyday and manages to mix nostalgic moments and zeitgeist.

Sixth June – Stay! LP (Limited Edition 333 Purple Vinyl)
¥3,980
SOLD OUT
Young And Cold Records – YCR/180 (2024) SIXTH JUNE, the Serbian duo working from Berlin for many years, has gathered a solid fan base since their first album in 2010, and even longer breaks have not stopped the fans from staying loyal. With their fifth album “Stay” (their first on Y&C), SIXTH JUNE catapult themselves another big step forward. Catchy Electro-Wave that will leave a lasting impression, also far beyond the usual scene: Wonderfully produced songs that immediately stick in your head, but fail to sound “superficial”. ‘Stay’ includes totally 8 tracks, among them the remixed and remastered versions of the singles: “Dance with me”, “Stay”, “Collapse”, “Sanjam” and “Wake up”. The basic direction of SIXTH JUNE has remained the same... their mixture of Electro-Wave, Minimal-Synth and intense 80s atmospheres is both, profound and catchy. Overall, there is an (even) more melancholic atmosphere this time, which is often strongly reminiscent of the less experimental stuff of Kirlian Camera from the 80s (“Blue Room”, “Heldenplatz”...). “Dance with Me” and “Sanjam” open the album in the usual way, with the former song also being suitable for the dancefloors of clubs, especially in the early hours of the morning when the party is slowly winding down. “Stay” combines electronic elements with light Neofolk-over- tones and puts the listener in an almost hypnotic mood. “Take Care” seems lighter and could almost be a lost Valerie-Dore B-side, as unlikely as that may sound. “Dream Again” then leads more into the second half of the 80s and is a little more solemn, while finally “Collapse” is an anthem for the sunrise on the beach, after a night of partying and will certainly become a fan favorite at concerts.

Future Nobodies – Future Nobodies LP (Limited Edition 200 Transparent Red Vinyl)
¥3,980
SOLD OUT
Young And Cold Records – YCR/184 (2024) Highly gifted US-trio from Chicago with a very strong debut album! The band's self-description "we make sad happy music to dance to" sums it up pretty well. Discogs mentions genres such as Dreampop, Gothrock, New Wave and Indie, but in the end it can be summed up as Postpunk, which on the one hand fits well into the ongoing trend. On the other hand, however, it relies less on the usual gloom and instead conveys a positive overall mood. This is ensured by the female singer's unpretentious singing, the straight rhythms, the pumping bass and the wavy guitars. This would have fit well on the 4AD label in the early 90s, when bands like Lush, Belly, Throwing Muses and Breeders were causing a stir there. After starting with the relaxed, easy-going songs “I still love You”, “Donde Dormiste” and “Tarot”, “Die Disko” then takes a danceable club direction for the first time, as does the slightly hectic “I don't want to share You (Too Shy)”. “Untitled” brings back memories of The Cure - but has nothing to do with the song of the same name from “Disintegration”. Dreampop at its finest is “Touch Me”, which would be a monument if performed live accordingly, “Drag U Down” is flawless Indiepop, as was common in the second half of the 80s on labels such as Sarah, Creation or Postcard. FUTURE NOBODIES present a fairly mature debut here, which is stylistically diverse, but has already developed its own style, which promises a lot for the future. It's worth keeping an eye on and an ear out for! Bandcamp 試聴 https://futurenobodies.bandcamp.com/album/future-nobodies

Adam Usi – Censored Self-Harm LP (Limited Edition 150 White Vinyl )
¥3,980
Young And Cold Records – YCR/182 (2024) ADAM USI (from the South of Germany) is practically part of the "inventory" of Y&C Records. He was there right from the beginning and released several records and tapes, making a good name for himself with a small but fine fan base through this and occasional live performances. Far too long, six years after the 2018 work "In Plastique Bloom", here’s an all new album! Musically, the tried and tested mix of New Wave and Synthpop in the style of the 80s remains, but sounds appear much matured! You could also just call it Wave-Pop, here and there with a bit of New Romantic atmosphere, characterized by the fresh, natural singing. “Malaise”, for example, is a real catchy tune, “2 10” brings to mind the very early Depeche Mode and “Farce”, which was released on tape in 2021, could almost have come from the second or third Soft Cell- album, at least as far as the vocal melody is concerned. “Woke up unlucky” not only shows a slightly different side of ADAM USI in the title, musically speaking it is also much more “wavy”. From time to time it gets a bit darker, as in “Aurora”, which is almost hypnotic, but at the same t ime invites you to dance. “Censored Self-Harm” is all about conscious and unconscious self-harm and self-denial. And since this is of course not an easy topic - but is sometimes packed in catchy music in a seemingly contradictory way - the lyrics are included with the LP so that listeners can deal with it. But of course you can also just enjoy the album as a beautiful Wave-Pop-pearl. ADAM USI pre- sent an album that is simultaneously catchy and profound and seems calm in a positive sense.

Stranger And Lovers – Pervert LP (Limited Edition 250 Black and White Vinyl)
¥3,980
Young And Cold Records – YCR/174 (2024) In the 1990s and early 2000s, well-known European and American Darkwave- and Electro-bands such as London After Midnight, Das Ich and Crüxshadows played in Mexico for the first time and were surprised by enthusiastic audiences. As if by an initial spark, many fans began to make music themselves and a lively Dark-Scene has developed to this day. Y&C brought some of the acts to Europe firstly...including LOVER & STRANGERS. The trio was founded in 2018 and is now releasing their third album, "P3rv3rt". Nothing fundamental has changed in the basic mix of 90s Dark Electro and some Gothic-elements. However, the production and songwriting have matured significantly and songs like "Face to Face" should quickly fill the dance floors of the clubs. "Destiny" almost tends towards the Future-Pop direction, that emerged around the turn of the millennium. "Dominik" has more than a bit of The Sisters Of Mercy, as does "Justine" (not just because of the woman's name in the title) and "Re- demption" is a perfect song in classic New Wave-style. None of this is new, but it is implemented in such a pleasant and contemporary way that it is very entertaining. Darkwave in the style of the 90s with today's technical implementation...that will be definitely a lot of fun live too! Bandcamp 試聴 https://strangerandloversofficial.bandcamp.com/album/p3rv3rt

Ursula – Ursula 4 LP (Limited Edition 222 Transparent Pink Vinyl )
¥3,980
Young And Cold Records – YCR/171 (2024) The German duo URSULA released several tapes and a split LP since 2019... With their sound between catchy NDW (German New Wave around 1981/82) and Minimal Synth, URSULA have quickly made a good name for themselves among Minimal-fans and now also started performing live. With "4" and upcoming performances, the duo intends to reach a wider audience and bring their danceable electronic sound to the clubs. The 8 tracks on this beautifully coloured Vinyl recall the early German tape scene of the 80s, when "children's room"-musicians implemented their idea of Pop Music with the simplest technical an musical equipment. From the descriptions it is clear that “4” sounds like it was made from a single piece and will delight NDW fans of groups like Profil, Stahlnetz, Zaza or Recht Herzlich, as well as people who love current acts like Kühle Matrosen, Tilly Electronics or Gen Null.

Psihokratija – Eight Wanderings Of The Soul LP (Limited Edition 200 Black Vinyl)
¥3,480
SOLD OUT
Young And Cold Records – YCR/053LP (2020) Psihokratija was founded in 1988 in Yugoslavia (Belgrade, Serbia) by Gorjan Krstić (synths and composition) and Zoran Petrović (vocals). Wessely Karel (synths) joined the band but left after a very short period of time. In 1990 the band released its debut album, entitled "Album Mentalnih Fotografija" (Mental Photo Album) and started performing all over the country. The same year, the band split and Gorjan Krstić, with new band members, began to prepare the band's second album, which ended right before the start of the civil war. It was only after many years, that Gorjan reactivated the whole project with new band members. He is currently preparing Psihokratija's third album.

The Sweet Kill – Nowhere LP (Limited Edition 150 Black White Splatter Vinyl)
¥4,180
Young And Cold Records – YCR/177 (2024) THE SWEET KILL is the solo project of US musician Pete Mills. While solo projects are usually in the Electro or Darkwave genres, THE SWEET KILL is clearly inspired by Gothrock, a genre that actually thrives primarily on the interaction of a band. The fact that Mills' sound still works very well shows his musical talent. NOWHERE contains sonic cinematic soundscapes of cold wave synths, post-punk drums, atmospheric guitar and melodic bass. This highly anticipated sophomoric album questions the final analysis of the souls’ journey between two worlds, are we eternally floating in the ether or are we never lost and always found? Grief is love with nowhere to go. Lives are lived and lost and some souls return to explore another round as others trudge eternally haunting our world forever in the nowhere… Bandcamp 試聴 https://thesweetkill.bandcamp.com/album/nowhere
