We have launched the pre-sales for the brand new compilation series entirely and exclusively devoted to bands with female lead vocalists: "Absolute Grrrls Manifesto [chapter 1]". "Absolute Grrrls Manifesto [chapter 1]" is a deluxe 4CD compilation (see artwork above) and is bound to become a must-have, just like the "Endzeit Bunkertracks" series has become the leading one in its genre.
You can now visit a dedicated page for the compilation project: www.alfa-matrix.com/manifesto1/ . On the website you cannot only see the complete list of the 111 bands featured on this release but also read a manifesto which Seba Dolimont, A&R at Alfa Matrix, wrote together with various front women of bands that joined the project.
The compilation mixes electro, EBM, gothic rock, synth pop, new wave, metal, industrial, techno... and is a good guide to know what female fronted bands are out there.
To celebrate their first 5 years of existence, Schwarzblut has released a 24 page limited edition photo book. This anniversary gem catches the band in full color at precious moments during live shows, album recordings, on the road and in the studio. The book is available in 2 sizes. The small edition measures 14x14cm and costs € 15,- (+ P&P). The large one is 30x30cm and is available for € 45,-. (+ P&P). Order your copy at www.schwarzblut.com
Convergence 19 which is to be held in Austin, Texas April 19-21, will have Mentallo & the Fixer and Contaminated Intelligence playing live next to other bands such as Douglas J McCarthy, The Bellwether Syndicate, Cervello Elettronico, Mirabilis, and Exit.
Gary Dassing from Mentallo & the Fixer will be playing on Contaminated Intelligence's set and Jourdan Turner from Contaminated Intelligence will be playing on the Mentallo & the Fixer set.
We can now announce that our label catalogue is available for streaming via Yandex, the russian Google annex Spotify. The label's material is available as part of a paid mobile subscription service next to the free web-based streaming service from Yandex.
If you live in Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Kazakhstan or Turkey you can now stream the label's music just like others can do in Europe and the USA do on Spotify, Deezer, etc..
