(Picture by Rein) Rein is back with a brand new single, the 1-tracker “Closer to Reality”. On this new single Joanna Reinikainen, aka Rein, makes a mix of more commercially tainted approach yet maintaining that edgy industrial sound. Perhaps not the most accessible track for the industrial crowd, but we are pretty sure this single will get her reaching out to a wider crowd.

Rein remains one of the most promising newcomers (I was quite under the impression when her work was pitched to Side-Line at the early start of her carreer), you get a fat production and excellent vocals. We only expect the best for her up- and coming debut album expected for later this year!

Here’s the new single!

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.
