Side-Line introduces KPT – listen now to ‘Innermost’ (Face The Beat profile series)
The 42nd track on our free download compilation “Face The Beat: Session 4” (featuring 92 tracks) is by the dark hypnotic electronic Minneapolis based act KPT (pronounced ‘Kept’).
KPT is a real discovery for so many reasons. This one-man project has so far released 2 albums and one EP and the track we feature here comes from the excellent “BLK Eye” album released last year. It’s not a coincidence that many consider this act as a frontrunner of what electro music might sound like in the future although it has so far passed largely under the radar of the other scene magazines. Sound wise KPT mixes breakbeats, dark synth layers with almost tribal like beat assaults and scarcely placed vocals.
A band you need to keep an eye on for sure! You can learn more from this very fine act right here on Facebook.

More people read Side-Line than ever, and there is still no paywall and no advertising. Readers pay for it instead - from $5 a month.
Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.

Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
