Side-Line introduces Genre Peak – listen now to ‘Denizen Darklight’ (Face The Beat profile series)

The 35th track on our free download compilation “Face The Beat: Session 4” (featuring 92 tracks) is by the US based electronica project Genre Peak.
Genre Peak is the music project of Martin Birke (formerly of Sandbox Trio and the electro pop act Casualty Park). The band has been able delivering some really outstanding material over the years starting with 2006’s “Ends of the Earth”. The track we offer here is taken from the band’s 2016 album “Your sleekest engine” which also features collaborations with Manal Deep, Charlie Woodward, Michael Spring, Jon Hassell, Steve Jansen and Lesley Braden. In short, an artist with a very eclectic view on things and a very refreshing approach towards dark electro music. Check the band right here on Facebook.

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. Besides music I’m also an SEO and AI content flow specialist and have an interest in everything finance from stocks to crypto. There is music in everything!
