KONTAKTE


British band Kontakte are back with a soon to be released album, ‘We Move Through Negative Spaces’. Guitars are the fulcrum but there are elements of white noise and industrial percussion running throughout. This though doesn’t belie the fact that ultimately this album isn’t all that harsh and indigestible, but instead comes across as rather a soft landscape rendering.  

I can’t say enough good things about this album so I won’t even try.

You can listen to the album below. To launch the album Kontakte are playing at the Vibe Bar, London on the 17th with support from Iambic, Wild Dogs in Winter and Waking Aida (details here) before playing a couple of dates in Germany.

The band are also pushing the boat out with a limited edition version of the album, which includes but is not limited to: three exclusive tracks, exclusive photos, a badge and a schematic of the recording process (kind of curious to see what that looks like). Limited to just 50, these can be ordered from their blogsite kontaktemusik.blogspot.com.
