Debeli Precjednik and Mašinko searching for the monkey of the year

Croatian punkrockers Debeli Precjednik / Fat Prezident and Mašinko joined forces in the year of the monkey to find the monkey of the year – the result is split album 'Godina Majmuna / Majmun godine' (in english: 'The Year of the Monkey / The Monkey of the Year'), which was released on October 25th 2016 in CD, LP and digital format for slovenian record label Moonlee Records and croatian Dirty Old Label and Dostava Zvuka.

With their new songs, Debeli Precjednik continue where they left off with last EP ‘Povijest bolesti’ (Moonlee Records, 2014). Fast, energetic and catchy punk-rock songs, with hookable guitar riffs and recognizable vocals, jumping between Croatian and English languages, once again prove that Debeli Precjednik are a world-class band. Their side of the album is finished with a surprising remix, shedding new light on the band… This is followed by a blast-off from Mašinko, with their humorous and anthemic melodic punk-rock, sung in Croatian, making sure their melodies stay stuck in your head for the entire day, night, morning. Their songs echoes the best part of bands such as Pasi, Atheist Rap or even Hladno pivo, making their upcoming popularity rise after this album no surprise at all.

The quest for the monkey of the year is now officaly open, and it sadly seems like there are more candidates with each passing year. But at least we now have a perfect soundtrack for it.

'Gde ćeš' - New album by serbian post-punk trio Repetitor

Slovenian independent record label Moonlee Records presents new album by serbian garage-postpunk-noise-rock trio Repetitor entitled ''Gde ćeš'' (english: Where will you go) which is released today, on 18th October 2016 as CD, LP and digital format. Possible answer to above question is offering by itself – with invitation to some of Repetitor's performances in Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia, Czech, Slovakia, Netherlands...

Repetitor announced the upcoming third album with the single Beskraj at the end of 2015 and proved the trio simply refuses to depart from their mapped path. Their strongest weapon are their live shows, which influenced also the recording of this album as these 8 new songs were practically recorded in one take, again proving Repetitor's »all or nothing« stance. This also gives the album a primal drive and garage scent. The listener is thundered by a high-voltage wall of sound, bursts of rage, fear, violence, pain and anxiety. On one side, we have Boris Vlastelica psychotically grinding his guitar strings and shredding chords with a punk attitude, soon to twist them into hurricane heavy riffs. On other side, there's playful and bouncy Ana-Marija Cupin, fused with her bass guitar working on cooking a post-punk balm. All of this is glued together by the untamable beast on drums, Milena Milutinović, bittery drumming away like if it's the end of time. In the noisy range of their guitar-based rock echoes The Stooges, Nirvana, Sonic Youth, Dead Moon, Suicide, Bikini Kill, Swans, and more – however, Repetitor are so genuine and unique that you can describe their music just by saying »Repetitor«. Together with Savages, Metz, Thee Oh Sees, Girl Band, Future of the Left, A Place To Bury Strangers, Fat White Family, they are plunging on the transversal of the most dangerous rock bands of the moment.

Repetitor live shows:

Serbian post-punk trio Repetitor presents a new single 'Suženi snovi'

Garage-postpunk-noise-rock trio Repetitor from Belgrade, Serbia, just released a brand new single ‘Suženi snovi’ and announces their upcoming album 'Gde ćeš', to be released in CD and LP format on 18th of October 2016 by the slovenian independent label Moonlee Records.

The single ‘Suženi snovi’ is available for streaming / free download at the Moonlee Bandcamp, as well as at Moonlee's YouTube channel. The new album, containing eight brand new songs, can already be pre-ordered at Mr. Moonlee’s online store.

The previous album 'Dobrodošli na okean' (Moonlee Records, 2012) may have been released already 4 years ago, however, Repetitor were not resting – thanks to their wild and explosive live shows rumors of the untameable rock trio rapidly spread outside the Balkans borders. Through European tours and notable shows at numerous bigger European festivals (Sziget, Exit, Eurosonic, Pohoda, Europavox, Rock For People, Loftas, Stereoleto, INmusic...), performances in Russia and even China, the band confidently gained »must-see« status and jumped at the very top of the bands, which are returning the faith in (punk)rock. In the midst of the touring madness, Repetitor also found the time to record 8 brand new songs for the album 'Gde ćeš', of which some songs you may have already heard at their concerts.

Repetitor’s strongest weapon is their live shows. That is why the band will jump back on stages right after the album's release. After few release parties in ex-YU region, they are heading on short European tour, featuring an appearance at the Le Guess Who? festival in Netherlands, where they will perform alongside such fine bands as Savages, Swans, Dinosaur Jr., Deerhof, Tortoise and many more.

Debeli Precjednik announce new album with new video

Croatian punkrockers Debeli Precjednik / Fat Prezident launched a new video/single ''Subotom Kićo, nedjeljom Slabinac'' to announce a new split album Debeli Precjednik / Mašinko (croatian punkrock band), which will be released in autumn in cooperation between slovenian and croatian independent labels Moonlee Records and Dirty Old. Debeli Precjednik produced the video in D.I.Y. manner - they recorded and edited it on their own in their rehearsal room in the company of their friends, t.i. comrade-in-arms in their Saturday-Sunday adventures, which are also inspiration for the song (unfortunately it is not possible to adequately translate song title in English).

Borghesia – Better Live Than Dead

After respectful 33 years since its beginnings, Borghesia has lived to see its first live album. "Better Live Than Dead" offers five old songs in new form that were recorded live wih a renovated line-up at their concerts at Klub Mochvara in Zagreb and Kino Šiška in Ljubljana in October 2015. Live mini-album, which is available exclusively in digital format through Bandcamp (for free, but you can also choose 'name-your-price' option), is released by the Slovenian record label Moonlee Records. Slovenian influential electronic rock group Borghesia, one of the pioneers of EBM music, made a comeback in 2014, released their latest album "And Man Created God" (Metropolis Records) and settled in a new line-up a year later: Dario Seraval, Aldo Ivančić, Andraž Mazi, Jelena Rusjan and Irena Tomažin. New times, new members and fresh creative forces are reflecting also on new band's sound, what is evident already on their last album. At the same time, old songs get a new form on live performances as well, therefore Borghesia decided to present and mark down five od their old songs (Tako mladi, Young Prisoners, Am I?, Nočne šetnje, Pasto Nudo), which were recorded live at their concerts at Klub Mochvara in Zagreb and Kino Šiška in Ljubljana in October 2015, and now released as live minialbum "Better Live Than Dead" (Moonlee Records) in digital format. Jani Mujić took care of sound and recordings, while Aldo Ivančić did the mix and mastering. Cover photo was taken by Janez Gerčar, while Antonio Karača did the cover design. From the chosen songs, it is worth pointing out the song 'Nočne šetnje', which was actually the first Borghesia video, produced way back in 1983. The concert in Kino Šiška, Ljubljana was recorded by RTV Slovenija for TV show Aritmija (Aritmični koncerti): http://4d.rtvslo.si/arhiv/aritmija/174381373, which was used for video of the song 'Pasto Nudo'. Borghesia is currently working on new songs to be released in a new album in 2017, while at the same time announcing their shows at Festival Lent (Večerov oder) in Maribor (Slovenia) on Thursday, 30th June 2016, and at Exit Festival in Novi Sad (Serbia) on Friday, 8th July 2016.

Bernays Propaganda embark on another European tour

After releasing their fourth album "Politika" (Moonlee Records, 2016) and a series of three consecutive sold out promotional concerts in Skopje, the Macedonian Bernays Propaganda embark on a month-long European tour, during which they’ll perform in eleven countries between 14th April and 14th May.

The new album by the Macedonian music activist "Politika", released on the independent Slovenian label Moonlee Records (March 2016), presents the band in a bit different light. The new material flirts with electronic new-wave in the vein of New Order and The Notwist, taking away some of the guitars’ sharp edges, while the pace is dictated by a drum machine. A bold move by a band who had the guts to change their sound and approach to music on their fourth album, expanding on their artistic vocabulary. Definitely a musical treat not to be missed!

Politika - a new album by Bernays Propaganda

Macedonian activist musicians Bernays Propaganda have released their fourth album "Politika" today, March 14th 2016. Their new album, which sets an important milestone in band’s career, is released on the Slovenian independent label Moonlee Records available in the CD and LP formats, as well as a free download. It is clear from the get-go that Bernays Propaganda present themselves in a different light on the new album. “Politika” flirts with electronic new-wave, taking away some of the guitars’ sharp edges, while the pace is dictated by a drum machine. A bold move by a band who had the guts to change their sound and approach to music on their fourth album. The new material recalls the sound of New Order and other new-wave artists from the early 80s, as well as the sounds of German indietronic in the vein of The Notwist, a band that underwent a similar sound transformation with their album “Neon Golden”. Compared to the band's previous releases, “Politika” is permeated by a more melancholy tone – a suitable reflection of the times we live in – putting the vocals more in the spotlight. Bernays Propaganda are lyrically they are as fierce as ever, uncompromisingly commenting on the modern way of living and the position of each individual in the contemporary madness called democracy. After the album release, Bernays Propaganda are heading out on a month-long European tour in April and May. Check out the dates below.

”Das Lied der Maschinen” – new Werefox album

Werefox, the alternative rock band from Slovenia presents their second studio album ”Das Lied der Maschinen”, released today, February 4th 2016, by the slovenian independent record label Moonlee Records. It is available in the CD format, or as a free download (on name-your-price method on Bandcamp).

For their sophomore record ”Das Lied der Maschinen” (which translates to 'The Song of the Machines'), the rock machinery Werefox attempts to answer the recurring sci-fi question - can machines develop emotions? The answer is a resounding 'yes'. The album kicks off hard, yet manages to surprise with each following track, taking us to another world. Rich arrangements, dynamics and diversity can lead us to draw parallels to Queens of the Stone Age, The Dead Weather and Bosnian Rainbows. ”Das Lied der Maschinen” with its carefully selected tracklist order is made to send various emotional impulses straight through the listener. Dirty sonic guitar riffs flirt with anthemic catchiness and take almost pop melodies on a wild ride in a rusty furious machine across a vast stoner desert. After 39 minutes, the machine self-destructively drives off the edge of a cliff and concludes the story of machines waking up from a long slumber.

Live promotion of Werefox’s “Das Lied der Maschinen” happens tonight at the MENT Ljubljana Festival, at the Komuna Kino Šiška venue and the concert will also be broadcasted live by the Slovene national radio Val 202. Later on a myriad of promotional concerts across Slovenia will follow.

Upcoming Werefox live dates:
04.02.2016 @ MENT Ljubljana - Kino Šiška, Ljubljana
20.02.2016 @ Baza, Ajdovščina
27.02.2016 @ MC Pekarna, Maribor
05.03.2016 @ MIKK, Murska Sobota
18.03.2016 @ Trainstation, Kranj
15.04.2016 @ Lokalpatriot, Novo Mesto
22.04.2016 @ Jürjevo je, Sv. Jurij ob Ščavnici

Werefox announce new album! Watch video for ‘Triads’ now!

Werefox, an alternative rock four-piece from Slovenia, have shared the long-awaited video for the song “Triads” and announced the release of their sophomore album “Das Lied der Maschinen”, coming out on February 4th 2016 on Moonlee Records. The band decided to take things into their own hands and shot the video themselves - directed and edited by bassist Manuel Hahn, who interwove the video with 3D animations by the renowned German 3D animation master Martin Ernst. Members of the band had their faces scanned by a 3D scanner and sent the textures to Martin, who used them in the animated part of the video. The video opens up by showing a pile of abandoned mannequins in a forgotten warehouse. However, not all mannequins are identical - amongst them, we can spot all four members of Werefox, with an ever-growing restlessness within…. The meaning behind the video is open to interpretation, but it is clear that it is a call for non-conformism, the awakening from passivity and breaking out of your own bounds. Werefox is a band with a formidable musical background (Psycho-Path, Manul, kleemar, Sphericube, Lollobrigida) and gained recognition with their debut I Am Memory” (God Bless This Mess Records, 2013). The band pumps its musical blood from various veins from the vast history of rock in a sexy yet murderous way and, according to critics, set new milestones in alternative rock. “Das Lied der Maschinen” will be released on Thursday, February 4th 2016, backed up by a live performance at the MENT Ljubljana, taking place at the Komuna venue in Kino Šiška. The concert will be also broadcasted live by Radio Val 202. The new Werefox album is already available for pre-order at Moonlee Store - with each order you also get an album download (before the release date). Werefox live: 04.02.2016 @ MENT Ljubljana - Kino Šiška, Ljubljana (SI) 27.02.2016 @ MC Pekarna, Maribor (SI) 05.03.2016 @ MIKK, Murska Sobota (SI) 15.04.2016 @ Lokalpatriot, Novo Mesto (SI) 22.04.2016 @ Jürjevo je, Sv.

''Laži me, laži me'' video by Bernays Propaganda

After three full-length albums, countless shows and tours Macedonian indie-post-punk activists Bernays Propaganda surprised everyone with their first (!) official video for song "Laži me, laži me", announcing their new album "Politika", which will be released on March 14th 2016 for slovenian record label Moonlee Records. But already in early February Bernays Propaganda are back on stage, since they will perform on MENT Ljubljana, accompanied with some additional shows in Slovenia and Croatia. However, soon after new album release they are going on one-month long European tour entitled ''Politika''. Bernays Propaganda's rumble continue. And we dance with them.... Future Bernays Propaganda shows: 29.01.2016 @ Strumica, Scena 112 (MK) 04.02.2016 @ Ljubljana, Menza pri koritu - MENT Ljubljana (SI) 05.02.2016 @ Maribor, Gustaf - MARŠ obletnica (SI) 06.02.2016 @ Murska Sobota, MIKK (SI) 07.02.2016 @ Zabok, Zelena dvorana (HR) 25.03.2016 @ Skopje, MKC (MK) 26.03.2016 @ Skopje, MKC (MK) 14.04.2016 - 15.4.2016 @ "Politika" European tour

Bernays Propaganda singing "Laži me, laži me"

In the period of kitschy christmas-newyear euphoria Macedonian danceable post-punk combo Bernays Propaganda, whose name directly refer to Edward L. Bernays, is singing "Laži me, laži me" ("Lie to me, lie to me"). That’s how first single from upcoming, fourth full-length album is called. Their new album "Politika" will be released on March 14th 2016 for slovenian independent record label Moonlee Records. Single "Laži me, laži me" is available for streaming and free download at Moonlee Bandcamp profile, as well as on YouTube channel. After hundreds of concerts, 3 albums and even a tour in USA, we can without a doubt say that Bernays Propaganda is one of the internationally most recognized bands from Macedonia. The danceable post-punk activists are a touring beast, which suffered line-up changes in late 2014, switched the drummer for a machine, and was reborn in summer 2015 with new line-up and new sound – shamelessly flirting with more electro-indie-pop influences. All this makes the excitement about new Bernays Propaganda album even bigger. Quickly after album release Bernays Propaganda will depart on one-month long european tour in April and May. However, already in early February they will perform on MENT Ljubljana, international festival & conference in Ljubljana, Slovenia, happening between 3rd – 5th February 2016. Laži me, laži me...

Nikki Louder released »Trout«

Slovenian noise-rock trio Nikki Louder just released »Trout«, their fourth full-length, available both on CD and LP format and also as free download, which is result of cooperation between Moonlee Records and Založbe Radia Študent. »Trout« is already the fourth full-length album by this interesting Slovenian noise-rock trio, which keeps constantly progressing, reenvisioning and reinventing themselves while remaining true to the foundations they've built their sound around. Beginning of the album slowly evolves, creating spacious atmosphere of expectation before gaining momentum and sucking you into Nikki Louder's messy and chaotic guitar/percussion interplay that they are known for. Sometime mid-record, things get more straightforward and vigorous – noisy, rhythmic wall-of-sound textures dominate the soundscape, complemented with carefully integrated feedback and dissonance of an untamed, screaming guitar, and muffled, troubled, shouting vocals on the top of everything. Nikki Louder's new album is simply the beauty of noise. Nikki Louder will promote new album with bunch of shows within the local region, but in mid-January they will also perform on Eurosonic Noorderslag festival in Groningen (NL) on Januray 13th and 14th and build a short tour around that. Nikki Louder's future shows: 18.12.2015 @ Kamnik, Dom kulture (SI) 12.1.2016 @ Schaffhausen, tbc (CH) 13.1.2016 @ Groningen, Eurosonic Noorderslag (NL) 14.1.2016 @ Groningen, Eurosonic Noorderslag (NL) 15.1.2016 @ DE, tba 22.1.2016 @ Klub Gromka, Ljubljana (SI)

Nikki Louder is a noise rock trio coming from Kamnik area, Slovenia, whose three full-length albums ("Alain, I’m Sorry", 2009; "Our World Died Yesterday", 2011; Golden Men, 2013) were received very positively by critics and audiences. Nikki Louder's past discographic efforts showed their ability to deliver a different, yet consistent signature sound that progressed further with each new release and ultimately made them the most skilled band of the genre in the area. Also their new material is offering usual messy and chaotic guitar/percussion interplay and noisy, rhythmic wall-of-sound textures, which altogether dominate the soundscape. Here comes "Trout" - feel free to serve yourself.

MAJMOON na balkanski turneji

Avantgardni post-rock avdiovizualni kolektiv Majmoon iz Munchena se ponovno odpravlja na turnejo po Balkanu v okviru katere bo med 11. - 18. aprilom 2015 obiskal Slovenijo, Hrvaško, BiH in Srbijo. Majmoon že 11 let raziskuje možnosti eksperimentalnega post-rocka v formi avdiovizualne interakcije. Tisti, ki bolje poznajo njihovo ustvarjalno moč smatrajo Majmoon za umetniški projekt in ne le še eden od preštevilnih bendov. V dobrem desetletju je Majmoon z glasbo opremil večje število filmskih projektov, hkrati pa izdal tudi 6 albumov, med katerimi velja izpostaviti zlasti dolgometražec »Procedure in a Case of Breakdown« (bluNoise, 2012) ter jubilarno CD/DVD izdajo ob desetletnici zasedbe »Ten years of Riot and Thinking Of You..« (bluNoise, 2013). Njihova glasba se definira kot avdiovizualna harmonija trancea, rocka, noisa in avdiokaosa.

New album by Vlasta Popić – Kvadrat

Psychadelic post-punk trio Vlasta Popić released its second full-length album »Kvadrat« today, on 28th January 2015, for Moonlee Records. It is released in CD format as well as free download via Bandcamp. 12“ vinyl will come out in March 2015 as a coproduction between Moonlee Records, Numavi Records from Austria and Vox Project from France. Second album by croatian trio Vlasta Popić brings more of their beloved signature indie-punk-noise-nowave-pop expression, but this time with a darker, more sinister edge to it. The record sounds more ambitious, thought-out and coherent compared to the earlier release, and it does so by utilizing much dirtier, distorted and noisier playing and production. The combined female/male singalongs and shouts add true energy to occasionally melodic, oftentimes jangly atmosphere created by the underlying instrumental psychedelia. As far as similarities and influences go, “Kvadrat” may be related to quite a few artists such as Repetitor, Fugazi, Shellac, Nikki Louder, etc. Live promotion of new Vlasta Popić album will happen on Thursday, 5th February 2015 in Gromka in Ljubljana, as a part of MENT Ljubljana – showcase festival & conference (4th-6th February 2015). It will be followed by bunch of shows in Slovenia & Croatia and Balkan tour in April: 5.2.2015 @ Ljubljana, Gromka – MENT Ljubljana (SI) 12.2.2015 @ Maribor, Gustaf – MARŠ 25 (SI) 20.2.2015 @ Murska Sobota, MIKK (SI) 21.2.2015 @ Kranj, Trainstation Squat (SI) 28.2.2015 @ Koprivnica, Kooglana (HR) 13.3.2015 @ Zagreb,Tvornica Kulture (HR) 27.3.2015 @ Varaždin, Green Bay (HR) 4.4.2015 @ Plovdiv, Petnoto (BG) 8.4.2015 @ Istanbul, Arkaoda (TR) 10.4.2015 @ Bucharest, Underworld (RO) 7.6.2015 @ Skopje, tba (MK) 10.7.2015 @ Bažant Pohoda Festival, Trenčin (SK)
