Theo Vandenhoff (CA / live)

https://theovandenhoff.bandcamp.com

Recently emerging as one of Toronto’s most exciting live acts, the sullen yet danceable post-punk of Theo Vandenhoff is as much a pseudonymous outlet for frontman/auteur Theo Klaver as it is a sonic chopping block at the hands of Callum Crombie (guitar) and Tom Nixon (bass).

Despite being based in Canada, their sound lends itself more to the sardonic European synthpop of Klaver’s heritage and the metallic Northern English cacophony of where Crombie and Nixon grew up. These influences fuse to form their own brand of goth-adjacent music that is equal parts nostalgic and contemporary, all while maintaining a staunchly DIY process where each step from conception to completion is conducted by the members of the band.

RUHR (DE / live)

http://ruhr1.bandcamp.com

RUHR is a project born between Verona and Berlin, mixing rough analog synth sounds inspired by the beginning of the minimal noise experimental wave in the '70s and the need of violent dance moves coming from the repetitive structures of early EBM. Minimal aestethic, High Contrasts and screamed dadaistic/political lyrics portrait a vision of sensual industrial soundscape and the need of social riot.
