Septic X: out now!

Today the Septic X sampler by Dependent is officially released.
It features "Yesteryears" by Diskonnekted: a first real announcement of the forthcoming album "Hotel Existence".

After some very cool reactions by fans on the internet, the track is also well received in the first reviews.
From "brillantes Stück" in Sonic Seducer to "ein endlos schöner Song mit fast schon verschwenderischer Detailverliebtheit in der klanglichen Ausgestaltung" on Madgoth.de.

Septic X

We’re excited to launch our new sound to the world via this cool compilation!

As Dependent puts it:
"Volume number ten in this series, "SEPTIC X" once again combines a wealth of fresh sounds from all corners of the scene together with several big names. For everyone who has been drowning in the sea of MySpace and Facebook mediocrity, "SEPTIC X" will shine like a beacon of exceptional quality."

Hotel Existence: the cover

We are happy to reveal the cover of ‘Hotel Existence’.

The picture by our visual artist Romuald ‘Ishoothorizon’ Swieconek reflects the general idea of the inner fantasy that promises you a better world, a place that was more than just a place, but an opportunity, a chance to live inside your dreams.

We picked up that idea from the novel ‘The Brooklyn Follies’ by Paul Auster.

We gave it a little twist though. More than an inner refuge, this fantasy can become a cancer of unfulfilled expectations. The picture of Romuald is the ideal translation of that forgotten and failed dream.

Feel free to share the cover all over the net!

Some last words

I know I've been teasing you a lot lately. To make it up with you, we will announce a lot by the start of the new year. When to expect the new album, what the tracklist will look like, etc. By the end of January, you should know everything.

Too bad you can't see the cover on this picture! ;-)
Let it be the last time we teased you, as we will reveal the cover next Tuesday!

Hang on! Stay 'konnekted'.

ps: Oh, and then there was some additional great news that was a wonderful way to end the year.
And also that other thing: a vocal participation for a great German band...

Lots to talk about next year!
See you on the other side!

Dear Santa

Dear Santa,

Sorry it took me four years to finish a new album.
But I promise you ‘Hotel Existence’ will be worth the wait!

I am working (as we speak) on final mixes for all tracks, and this time it’s for real.
Dear Santa, you really have to believe me on this one.

2011 was an adventurous year with lots of chaos and drama. Schidde left the band, and what was even a bigger shock: so did Christophe ‘Hitman’ Salvatore.
Emeric joined the band and I am really happy to have him with us. He’s both talented and fun, and he’s a ‘tough’ guy too as he survived a rather severe operation. Thank you for burning a candle!
And then there’s Romuald ‘Ishoothorizon’ Swieconek, following every step we take and making pictures of it. He gave Diskonnekted the look and feel we needed.

Stay tuned, Santa, because we will reveal more about the forthcoming ‘Hotel Existence’ after the switch into 2012.

See you next year!

Change of plan: Mildreda LIVE @ Twilight op 27 december

Tot onze grote spijt moeten we jullie vertellen dat Diskonnekted niet zal kunnen optreden op 27 december in de Twilight.
Onze gitarist Emeric zal ‘out’ zijn omwille van een ernstige operatie en zal zich op dat moment moeten worstelen door een stevige revalidatie.
We wensen Emeric veel sterkte toe.

Mildreda is het donkere zusje van Diskonnekted. Op 27 december komen we daarom in haar gedaante spelen. Met Mildreda brengen we een harde en donkere brok electro en industrial die ergens het midden houdt tussen Combichrist, Skinny Puppy, Suicide Commando of zelfs Das Ich.
Dit jaar nog werd Mildreda door Suicide Commando meegenomen op de Out of Line compilation World Wide Electronics. Maak je alvast klaar voor meer!

Op 27 december maken we er een heuse MILDREDA vs Diskonnekted show van en graaien we enkele Diskonnekted nummers mee in een donker jasje.
Ter ere van Emeric!
