ee:man announces new single ‘Earthquake In My Head’
Danish artist ee:man releases the EBM/electro-industrial single “Earthquake In My Head” on July 24, 2026, with a reworked “Searching My Soul” bonus track.
Danish dark synth and EBM artist ee:man releases the electro-industrial single “Earthquake In My Head” on July 24, 2026. The digital single arrives on all major streaming and download services and in lossless quality on Bandcamp, distributed by the Danish label Tinnitorturous. An official lyric video is set to premiere on YouTube the same day.
“Earthquake In My Head” follows a narrator confronting depression and despair, set to production that Tinnitorturous describes as EBM/electro-industrial “in the vein of Front Line Assembly, Portion Control and the like,” referring to the tormented mind at the centre of the lyrics. Front Line Assembly and Portion Control are not otherwise involved in the release.
ee:man reworks ‘Searching My Soul’ for the ‘Earthquake In My Head’ release
Buyers of “Earthquake In My Head” on Bandcamp receive a free bonus track: a reworked version of “Searching My Soul,” originally released in 2021 on ee:man’s debut album “Echoes of Life.” The new version gives the song a harder edge, part of an ongoing pass in which ee:man is revisiting older material. “Echoes of Life” remains available in full on Bandcamp.
ee:man splits his output across two Danish labels. The lighter, poppier songs are released through Town & Towers Records, while the darker, more industrial material – including “Earthquake In My Head” – comes out on Tinnitorturous. The label also describes ee:man’s sound as having drawn comparisons to Recoil, the solo project of former Depeche Mode member Alan Wilder.
About ee:man
ee:man is the project of Danish producer and musician Erik Sejer Pedersen, who had already spent more than two decades in the electronic music scene, with work released via ScentAir, Darktraxx and RetroSynth Records, before launching ee:man. He debuted the project in 2021 with the album “Echoes of Life,” issued as a limited-edition CD on the Russian label ScentAir Records on February 12, 2021, and featuring the original version of “Searching My Soul.”
After “Echoes of Life,” Pedersen’s output shifted toward singles and EPs, with the lighter, poppier songs going to Town & Towers Records, including “Question of Time” (2024) and “Slow Dream” (2024). In parallel, he developed a harsher, EBM-leaning branch of his sound on Tinnitorturous, beginning with the single “Dark Mind” in November 2024, the lead track of the EP “Visions of a Dark Mind” under the ee:2 concept, followed by “digital distance” (February 2025), “reflections” (October 2025) and an appearance on the label sampler “New World Disorder – A Tinnitorturous Sampler” (December 2025).
Pedersen joined the Copenhagen-based industrial EBM band Negant in 2023, replacing founding member John R. Mirland, and has contributed music and production to releases including “Censor!” and “Panzer!” He also collaborates with industrial project In Absentia on joint singles released through Tinnitorturous, a label run by Jens B. Petersen and Tommy B-Kuhlmann, who are themselves members of Negant and In Absentia respectively.
In 2026, ee:man released the Town & Towers single “Bite the Hand” in January, the Tinnitorturous EP “Evolving Dome of Madness” – his third EP for the label – in April, and the collaborative single “The Fabric Of You..” with Institute for the Criminally Insane in May. “Earthquake In My Head,” out July 24 with the reworked “Searching My Soul” as a Bandcamp bonus, continues that run of Tinnitorturous-side releases.
