Alfa Matrix recently added the Swedish one-man old school EBM army Elm to its roster. Elm is noon else than electro veteran Peter Elm (Restricted Area) who recently relocated to Brussels, cradle of the EBM movement, to compose the first EP for Elm. The EP, entitled “Edge”, was mastered by EBM-comrade Pontus Stålberg (Spetsnaz). You can hear the result below, it’s extremely close to the good old Nitzer Ebb, that’s for sure!

The EP can be downloaded now from Bandcamp.

The 7-track EP holds 6 versions of the title song “Edge” including remakes by Autodafeh, Pouppée Fabrikk and Hardwire. Also added is a bonus percussive track sung in French, entitled “Brofar”. The EP announces a forthcoming album aptly titled “Hardline”.

A project you have to keep an eye on!

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
