THE DEVIL AND THE UNIVERSE
Two cards selected from the 78-piece tarot card-set as utilised by the most famous occultist of the 20th century Aleister Crowley, were behind the first step. ”The Devil” and “The Universe” were the cards pulled that would prophesize a name for a musical-magical-transcendental composition and transformation project: THE DEVIL & THE UNIVERSE.
Three musician friends, one goal, Ashley Dayour („Whispers in the Shadow“) , David Pfister („Die Buben im Pelz“) and Stefan Elsbacher set out to create an eclectic blend of styles, sounds and atmospheres. Tribal drums meet 80’s electronica, industrial beats merge with middle eastern percussions, soundtrack like atmospheres conjure up dreams of a future that never was.
A dance ritual for a future past. An exercise in trance for a past yet to come.
THE DEVIL & THE UNIVERSE now look back on nine years of band history. In 2013, Ashley Dayour and David Pfister founded the band, which Stefan Elsbacher complemented to a trio. In the beginning the band focused on musical experimentation with magical systems. It’s still firmly inscribed in the band's DNA. With their mixture of soundtrack-like ambient sounds and driving beats, their goat masks and unmistakable humour, which especially shows in their visual representation, they drummed up a loyal fan base.
On GOATopia, THE DEVIL & THE UNIVERSE pick up the psychedelic feeling from the previous album :Endgame 69: and add new musical sounds. In doing so, they remain true to their principle, always finding new ways of expressing and not repeating themselves, even after nine years. Despite all the innovations, fans will recognize the unmistakable goat wave style, for which THE DEVIL & THE UNIVERSE are famous. The feet and hooves will twitch, for sure! With magic, occultism and a healthy dose of self-irony, GOATopia hallucinates the missed opportunities of the past without mourning them. Utopias are created, destroyed and rebuilt again. Utopia is dead. Long live Goatopia. Viva! GOATopia!
UNIAH
I det hypnagoge øyeblikket, oppstår Uniah — en skikkelse som vandrer drømmelangs mellom virkelig- og uvirkelighet. Med musikk og visuell kunst inspirert av klardrømmer, søvnparalyser og hallusinasjoner, tar Uniah deg med inn i en verden av hjemsøkende stemmer, harpespill og tåkelandskap. Her vil vi danse kvelden inn, kroppløse, og feire livets merkunderligheter.
PLASTIK NOIR
Plastik Noir was formed in October 2024 in Bergen, Norway. The band exists of Federica and Kevin. They both share a deep love for dark and cold music.
Heavily inspired by current and 80s bands, Plastik Noir tries to haunt you with a dark yet cynical and minimalist approach to Dark Wave.
