Things to look forward too…
It seems the boys are to have a press conference in Berlin on October 6th to discuss the upcoming tour and album. For all those in Germany, now’s your chance to score some tickets to the event. You can sign-up here. Word on the net is that the album will drop March 2009 — let’s hope they drop a few singles before the end of 2008.
In the mean time, enjoy a classic track:
Depeche Mode – A Question of Time
PS. That’s a fan in the picture, not a new member of DM 🙂
Great Depeche Mode-esque vibe on this track with a killer chorus and great backing vocals! I was turned onto this by a fellow last.fm listener, thank you KingLeerUK!
Mark Nicholas bio from Last.fm:
Electronic musician Mark Nicholas, formerly known as Cosmicity, turned in his synthpop badge to create a gritty and powerful new brand of vocal-driven, industrial-influenced Electronica.
Electronic musician Mark Nicholas, perhaps best known for his work under the name Cosmicity, began working under his real name in 2004. (You can download 7 of his best new songs for FREE here on last.fm and at dirtyelectronic.com.) Mark hails from Detroit (and is a University of Michigan School of Music grad), and though his roots are largely New Wave/Synthpop, his recent material has seen the additional influence of bands like NIN and The Prodigy. His first “solo” album – Duchess 33 – was released in 2007 on his newly-formed record label Dirty Electronic. He followed that album up with a remix album (of sorts) called Perversions in 2008.
Mark is expected to take a short hiatus (he’s having a baby with his wife Sara, better-known as DJ Ginger Snapp) and then return with the announced album “Music For Headphones” in 2009.
Hello everyone,
I have recently been working on a self release EP with Jef Vandertogt of “The Moon and Monday” fame. Together we are called, “The Long Division” We have just released our 6 track EP titled, “Multiply”.
Our sound is somewhat like Hot Chip meets The Postal Service meets The Knife and Royksopp. But speaking in a general sense you can classify our sound as indietronica.
