Various Artists - Dependence Vol. 8 - 2017

Dependence 2017, the new label compilation from the German premium industrial label Dependent, is being released. As always, the compilation is full of exclusive tracks and mixes from the Dependent label repertoire, but rarely have we been able to assemble and deliver so many strong and diverse songs on one single disc: The atmospheric electronic composition of the soundtrack VOLT by Alec Empire sets a moody intro, sharply contrasted by Dependent spearhead acts like Covenant & MESH. Long-awaited and unreleased tracks from the Seabound side projects Edge Of Dawn & Ghost & Writer lead from Synthpop to the critically acclaimed modern industrial debut of 2nd Face, to the high-octane trance industrial maelstrom from This Morn' Omina, and back to the Electronic Pop cover version of the old Kinks rock classic "(Girl) You Really Got Me" by SPECTRA*paris. The exciting new Dismantled side project Lizver & The Tree delivers a great first peek into their forthcoming debut, just like the Italian cult electronic act Kirlian Camera gives us a first glimpse onto their next album "Hologram Moon". Newcomers Ginger Snap5, Radioaktivists, and Our Banshee deliver strong contributions that will certainly see a lot of club attention. Quite honestly, we are more than just a little proud of the mix, the flow, and the new additions to our Dependent Label Roster. So, to wrap this up, Dependence 2017 represents a fusion of various electronic styles, an exciting sonic helicopter-style trip through the rich and diverse label program of one of the most renowned European Industrial labels. And it additionally offers a solid sneak peek into the next months of our releases. Which playlist can offer that much?
