“Falling” features vocals by Pal Magnus Rybom of Norwegian synthpop band Echo Image. The track is described by Alfa Matrix as “an irresistible future pop anthem”. The EP also includes “Too Far From The Pack”, a second vocal collaboration featuring Salva Maine of Spanish EBM project Culture Kultür.

About Elektrostaub
Elektrostaub is a German synth-pop and electronic music project founded in 2007 by Patrick Knoch in the northern Ruhr area of Germany. The project quickly established a reputation for melodic synthpop driven by meticulously chosen guest vocalist.
Elektrostaub’s first major release was the 2017 album “Birthday and Death” featuring artists such as Henrik Iversen (NamNamBulu) and Sébastien Léger. The follow-up album “Reliance” was released in 2021 via Alfa Matrix, expanding the list of guest collaborators.
Previous releases include the EP “We Are Dreamers” (2021) and contributions to various Alfa Matrix and Side-Line compilations.
Chief editor of Side-Line – 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 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.
Since you’re here …
… 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 haven’t put up a paywall – 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-Line’s 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 – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
