Genre: Harsh EBM
Biography:
“Electric Breathing was founded 2006 by Defcon One... The music is settled between
hellelectro and aggrotech... Inspired by aggression and hatred it's really
aggrotech! Fast beats, aggressive synths, banging bass, rattling snares and
very aggressive screaming singing with texts about misanthrophy, religion and
perversities playing with irony and provocation, the lyrics are unique and not
that kind, you may think reading the titles... An audio apocalypse
extraordinary, you can rarely experience... 2007 Ursus joined as
live-support...
On stage, Electric Breathing
abstains completely from using distortion, what makes the music even more
expressive. Defcon One’s live performance, expressing pure aggressiveness in
dance, animate the audience to dance...”
Maik
Blindfold
As soon as the first note is struck it becomes an addiction!
Increasingly immersing and flirts with a catchy realm of mesmeric rhythms that
fluctuate bringing in an all-round frenzy of solid beat stricken energy.
Vocally snarling that is good on so many levels this is a superb dance track!
Suck It Dry
In a haze of bizarre noises, but none the less keeping you well focused.
The music begins and is immediately impacting offering a coaxing of mesmerising
rhythms that are flamboyant and very persuasive in direction. A harsh and
powerful vocal orbits around this vibrant expanse.
Sweet Violence
The intensity continues with deeply fluctuating and hypnotic rhythms
that in turn bring a new drama to life. The harsh high pitched screeching vocal
blends with a harsh low growl making it very interesting indeed and adds a keen
depth to its stride.
No Sense, No Solution, No Way Out
Scattering plenty of innovative rhythmic flavours around in this almighty
compelling composition, boasting a haunting atmospheric background vocal and
deep chasms of groove that constantly deliver in riveting form.
Brain Reset
The synth notes sound like tiny drops of rain that weave intensely
through a fiery and invigorating rhythm, constantly persistent and persuasive
with the haunting ambiance that once again make an appearance along with a
snarling vocal.
------------------------------------------------------
The aggression is vehement but
still there is an element of caressing seductiveness that lies deep within its
core, giving an all-out sinister expression to its steely madness.
------------------------------------------------------
Devil's Whore
Demonic whispers in sample form usher out with a blackened breath
and ignite into a frenzy, thrusting with it a contagious catchy rhythm into the
fold and a raucous beating of drums.
Lord’s Prayer
Not keen on this track as it is a little on the monotonous side with
rather a jumbled sound scape, making it difficult to stay focused on.
MK Ultra
This is more like it! The anticipation of waiting for the climax as
it builds up into an intrusion of throbbing beats and woven rhythms is superb
and irresistibly addictive! Love it!!
Psycho in Me
The madness ensues with a constant and intense rhythm that is layered
with venom and as it sinks its teeth into you will possess you and own your
soul sending you crazy! It is indeed a psychotic rampage that is vocally
stunning. The extreme velocity of the track is harsh and malignant, throwing
you off guard as its seductive brawling essences become more apparent and
engrossing as the track continues.
Beautiful Sacrifice
From ambiance to squalling screams and what sounds like the breaking
of limbs it paints a squalid picture of menacing grooves that gnaw repeatedly
on the audial canal.
Summary
If you like moving to fast harsh rhythmic dance music then you will
love this album. It is indeed unyielding and from within its gnarly tendrils of
hate looms colossal beats and haunting ambiance that are blacker than black.
The aggression is vehement but still there is an element of
caressing seductiveness that lies deep within its core, giving an all-out
sinister expression to its steely madness.
The rich surges in vocal harshness are for me so rewarding as they
scar the ears with sheer causticity, while the balance is met with its
insatiable dance rhythms – I am so pleased Maik acquired a keyboard at the age
of 10 – otherwise we may never have gotten to experience his dangerously dark but
invigorating dance compositions.
