Arian 1 – Spend The Night (Digital EP – Insane Records)
Genre/Influences: EBM, body-pop.
Background/Info: Peruvian duo Arian 1 strikes back with a new EP featuring the title song plus 5 remixes.
Content: If you’re already familiar with the work of Arian 1 you’ll rapidly recognize the essence of their work. “Spend The Night” is a very efficient piece of EBM with a poppy touch on top. The vocals are rather clear.
Remixes have been accomplished by Reaxion Guerilla, Die Braut, Gunmaker, Bleeding Corp. and Struck 9.
+ + + : The title song is cool and danceable piece of fresh EBM. The carrying chorus creates a little climax. Among the remixes I especially want to mention the very clubby edit of Reaxion Guerilla and Bleeding Corp. which has accentuated the lead of the song.
– – – : I’m always a bit disappointed getting EP’s with one single song followed by a load of remixes.
Conclusion: Arian 1 confirms their potential and simply talent to compose efficient EBM-driven music. This is a band that deserves more recognition!
Best songs: “Spend The Night”, “Spend The Night – Reaxion Guerilla Remix”, “Spend The Night – Bleeding Corp. Remix”.
Rate: (7½).

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.
