Electro-industrial act Neon Insect goes ‘Rewired’ on new single – an awful world if the Soviets would have won
Nils Sinatsch, the mastermind behind the electro-industrial music project Neon Insect, has released his new single, “Rewired”.
Soundwise you’ll quickly hear that Nils found it difficult to continue on the cyberpunk, dystopian-themed path that began on the preceding release; the full-length LP, “New Moscow Underground”. “Rewired” will also appear on the upcoming album, “Love, Sex & Robots”.
In the conceptual series – you can only name it like this – Sinatsch tells tales from New Moscow, New York in an alternative reality, where the cold war went hot and the Soviets won (quite frightening in today’s reality). As a citizen of Hanover/”Germanograd” by day and a rebel by night, Neon Insect fetches the stories through the cyber web from his contacts in New Moscow – the only habitable city in a nuked America where cyborgs rule the streets, where lower Manhattan is a prison and the last bastion of the local rebellion.
Here’s the video for “Rewired”.
Chief editor of Side-Line â which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify whatâs actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, Iâm all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraineâs ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
Since youâre here âŠ
⊠we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we havenât put up a paywall â we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Lineâs independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine â and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
