The dense atmosphere of “Groupe 8/2” gets intensified in an extended version signed by Laurent Boudic himself, it then also takes a more aggressive and noir electronica turn through the remix of FLOOD VEYOR while COMMUTER accelerates the song’s urgent feel through excited mechanical beats. Last but not least, no one else but Mr. Usher from the legendary coldwave act NORMA LOY gives a BLACK EGG intriguing introspective minimal rendition of the song. 

Besides these poignant electro industrial compositions focused on creepy spying atmospheres intensified by oppressive repetitive vocal number coded communications, NÖVÖ also offers a mind-boggling extended version of “Whisky Tango Romeo” as well as an exclusive non-album track entitled “115” especially composed for this new EP and devoted to the emergency number 115. A heavy and dissonant track that will surely please all fans of NÖVÖ’s freezing robotic analog sonic assaults… 

For the sake of comparisons, NÖVÖ was recently compared to bands in the likes of THE NORMAL, early FRONT 242, KRAFTWERK, DUET EMMO, and THE KLINIK… Check it out by yourself and propagate these addictive NÖVÖ claustrophobic soundwaves without moderation.

Today, the Paris-based artist strikes deeper and reveals a parallel creepy world he assembled in collaboration with some selected artists from the electronic, ambient & industrial scene. Constructed around the album’s title song “The Shortwaves”, this new “Parallel” EP completes and intensifies the dramatic feel of the album through rising alarming beats and mystifying atmospheres reinforcing the tenseness and depth associated with shortwave radio and number stations in general. 

Next to a shorter “7” edit” version by NÖVÖ himself, “The Shortwaves” takes a coldwave melancholic twist with the noir and tortured reinterpretation by BLACK EGG who added a chaotic extra-dimension through some melancholic additional vocals. Studio guru FLOOD VEYOR – long time partner in crime of Laurent Boudic – comes next and shines again with his “Mass Propaganda” version adding some upbeat technoid depth to the song in his very own unparalleled style. COMMUTER are the next guests on this release for a ripping cocktail of radioactive KRAFTWERKian synths meet techno body music explosion. And last but not least, Brazilian Gil OS (ex-MORGUE) delivers a darker old-school EBM remix with his new AMORPHOUS project… 

NÖVÖ adds to this poignant “Shortwaves” sonic journey 2 exclusive unreleased bonus tracks with “Interfearence” and “Zero Zero” which both add some more slow-tempo heavy intensity to these vibrant and bursting creepy electronic tunes with an industrial touch.

“Let It Be Known Today” is for sure another highlight from NÖVÖ’s sophomore album which deserved an own stand-alone release allowing us to rediscover this poignant song in 4 new versions including an extended Kraftwerkian rework with vocoder and floating synth layers by Belgian label-mates of METROLAND as well as a darkish and poignant remix by FLOOD VEYOR… Fans of early FRONT 242, KRAFTWERK, FAD GADGET and other early 80’s heroes should adore NÖVÖ’s sonic atmosphere and lush music spectrum…Addictive pure synthetic music.

The title-song of his sophomore album, “Zeitgeist” is for sure another highlight which deserved its own stand-alone release and works as the perfect bridge between NÖVÖ’s darker and more experimental industrial side and his early EBM roots. Besides a 7″ and another extended mix, “Zeitgeist” also received the remix treatment by good old NÖVÖ partners in crimes FLOOD VEYOR, FRANCK KARTELL as well as DENIAL OF SERVICE. A very addictive EP full of pure synthetic music that comes strongly recommended to all fans of vintage synths & vocoder tunes à la KRAFTWERK, KOMPUTER, METROLAND & co. Enjoy the spirit of the time!
