DLINA VOLNY
Minsk, Belarus
Italians Do It Better Records
https://linktr.ee/dlinavolny
Dlina Volny translates into the English word “Wavelength.” Their name is a homage to their fascination with sine waves & the physics of sound. The Belarusian trio's sophomore album Dazed is a self-proclaimed "Love Thriller". Mixed by Dean Hurley, frequent David Lynch collaborator & producer, the record is gorgeous. Elegant synthesis is flanked by the brut low end of the rhythm section. The instruments set the stage for contralto vocals that hover like a warm fog on a chilly night. Hurley is also the engineer who brought us Jorja Chalmers' "Midnight Train" earlier this year, as well as remixes for Italians Do It Better flagship artists Desire & Chromatics.
On Dazed, Masha Zinevitch's voice wails & pivots between Ales Shishlo’s assault of morse-code arpeggios & icy sheets of Vad Mikutski’s guitars. Dlina Volny's music vaporizes on the event horizon where Eastern European Post-Punk collides with Western Synthwave. The album balances mystical narratives & dreamlike fantasies sourced deep in the trio's subconscious. Walking the tightrope that separates pain & euphoria, the lyrics wrestle with polarity. Anxiety vs passion, & hope vs the deep despair that surrounds negative space.
Aesthetically, Dazed encompasses 1980s Estrada Pop & the 1970s brutalist architecture that pierces the Minsk sky. “When it’s sunny here, it looks like a Soviet fairytale come true. On a dark day, it looks like dystopia.”
Having recently released their new single ‘In Between’, Dlina Volny are set to add yet another flawless release to an already pristine and industry respected discography. The band remark on the single; “In Between tells a story of one’s awakening and realisation. It delves into the desire to share newly discovered realities and meanings, inviting others to cross over to the other side and experience a transformed perspective." The single, out via Italians Do It Better, can be heard here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqsCKDCF8sk?si=Sh3qR9uCXrW1fjd1
Dlina Volny have a rich touring history and have performed alongside artists such as LEBANON HANOVER, MOLCHAT DOMA, KEDR LIVANSKIY, GENTS, SUPER BESSE, to name but a few. They also participated in European festivals, such as POP KULTUR (online), IKEA FESTIVAL (Online), GRAUZONE FESTIVAL (NL), BUDAPEST SHOWCASE HUB, POP MESSE Festival, LOFTAS FEST / WHAT'S NEXT In MUSIC (LT), POSTCOSMOS X (LT), and many more.

The DSM IV
Liverpool, UK
9x9 Records
https://linktr.ee/thedsmiv
Formed in Liverpool in 2018 by former Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster frontman Guy McKnight, THE DSM IV crystallise the ultra real and the otherworldly, bringing a focused hyperrealism to the party. Their convention-defying live performances toy with audience expectations and stimulate questions of the narratives being sold to us as news—or entertainment—all to the beat of the drum machinist.

GRAVE DIGGERS UNION
Chorley, UK
gravediggersunion.bandcamp.com
NW Post-Punk drums & synths duo, heavily influenced by early 80s Post-Punk bands. Haunting and intense with half-spoken half-sung vocals sitting dead centre of ambitious soundscapes and menacing throbbing bass.
