Probably the most eagerly expected new album on Metropolis this fall/winter: The massive return of the highly talented artist from Estonia, that already delivered 3 successful albums on the Cold Transmission label!
As Bedless Bones, Estonian interdisciplinary artist Kadri Sammel experiments with different noir genres, building bridges and bending the borders between darkwave, murky EBM & techno beats, industrial sounds, and abstract otherworldly atmosphere akin to IDM. Transcendental, atmospheric dark industrial techno EBM. “Mire of Mercury” sees Bedless Bones in top form. A captivating release and one of the absolute highlights in the genre this year!
Bedless Bones is Kadri Sammel - vocalist, producer, multi-instrumentalist and interdisciplinary artist Tallinn, Estonia. With a background of a decade of singing in choirs; studies in cultural theory, audio visual media and photography; her personal musical style has transformed into solo project Bedless Bones, which experiments with different noir genres; building bridges and bending borders between darkwave, murky EBM & techno beats and industrial sounds and abstract otherworldly atmosphere akin to IDM. Brought to life through songs that are charged with a multilayered melancholic sound, but also ignite dark dancefloors and evoke familiarity.
Regardless of Bedless Bones' debut in late 2019 and the following situation with Covid restrictions, the band has already played on festivals such as Wave Gotik Treffen (Germany), NCN (Germany), Cold Hearted Festival (Germany), Castle Party (Poland) and Kalabalik på Tyrolen (Sweden and shared the stage with New Model Army, Sex Gang Children, She Past Away, Ordo Rosarius Equilibrio, Lebanon Hanover, Kaelan Mikla and many others.
Kadri is also a member of Estonian avantgarde deathbeat/outdustrial band Forgotten Sunrise and the singer of up-and-coming UK/Estonian dystopian industrial band Deathsomnia. Another alias of Kadri is DJ Dirt Vessel: for the last few years she has been a crucial part of Beats From The Vault, an underground dark music event series in Estonia that has been going on since 1998. In her captivating sets lush with solemn atmospheres and a transcendental effect, she plays dark & industrial techno and EBM, but also darkwave and post-punk; and firmly paved her way as an important member of the scene.
