Aggressive analog sequences meet the legendary bark of EBM royalty. High-octane techno with a serrated industrial edge for dark rooms and heavy lifting.
This is the sound of heavy machinery coming to life in a dark, humid warehouse. Terence Fixmer provides the skeletal, driving pulse of modern techno, built on thick analog basslines and relentless drum machine patterns that never let up. It is music that feels physically heavy, pushing the listener forward with a mechanical, almost militaristic precision.
What truly sets this project apart is the presence of Douglas McCarthy. His vocal delivery is iconic, bringing a human snarl to the cold electronics. He doesn't just sing; he commands the track with a rhythmic, percussive shouting style that bridges the gap between 80s industrial and the modern dance floor. The chemistry is undeniable, creating a sound that is far more aggressive than standard techno but more danceable than traditional EBM.
Start with the album 'Between the Devil...' to hear the blueprint of their collaboration. It captures the raw energy of their live shows and perfectly demonstrates how McCarthy's voice acts as a lead instrument against Fixmer's punishing, minimalist production.
