Mark “0609” (September 6th) in golden letters on your calendar! Not only ALFA MATRIX is releasing AD:KEY’s highly anticipated new double-CD album, but we’re also celebrating the wedding anniversary of two inseparable icons of the EBM scene! AD:KEY’s 7th album “0609,” is their most personal release yet, reflecting their deep bond as a married couple and as bandmates. Andrea and Rene Nowotny take us on an intimate sonic journey, where their hearts and souls sync to create an album full of energy, strong old-school EBM basslines, catchy synth melodies, and addictive choruses, all highlighted by their unique male/female vocal interplay.
AD:KEY masterfully blends powerful body music reminiscent of NITZER EBB and DAF (through their German lyrics) with the melodic grandeur of KRAFTWERK, creating a sound that sits somewhere between AND ONE and FRONT 242. With “0609”, the Nowotnys prove they are a united force, delivering an album that will make you move, smile, and feel good. Full of talent, passion, and sincerity, this release stands out in the EBM scene, marking a key milestone in AD:KEY’s prolific career.
As a special treat, the album includes an 11-track bonus CD featuring alternative versions and remixes by friends like Martin Bodewell (ORANGE SECTOR), TO AVOID, DIGITAL FACTOR, MISERIA ULTIMA, ZWEITE JUGEND, TC 75, AKTION:FIASKO and their own side-project RECTOR SCANNER. Plus, enjoy a special guest vocal contribution from Uwe Kanka, frontman of the cult act and label mates ARMAGEDDON DILDOS.
This is an album that hits you straight in the heart and touches your soul while staying true to their solid Electronic Body Music roots.
Released mid September 2024 on Alfa Matrix.
