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.

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).

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

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...

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, slovenian noise-rock trio, is announcing their fourth full-length album »Trout«, which will be released on December 15th 2015 in CD and LP format, as well as free download on Moonlee Records and Založbo Radia Študent. To ease the waiting it is possible to stream and download the second single »Para Cargo« at Moonlee Bandcamp. The most impatient ones can already now pre-order the album in physical format through Moonlee webstore. Nikki Louder will have »Trout« premiere on December 18th in Dom Kulture Kamnik, while release party in Ljubljana is set on January 22nd in Klub Gromka. Besides that Nikki Louder will also perform on Eurosonic Noorderslag festival in Groningen (NL) on January 13th and 14th, which will be accompanied with few additional shows through Europe.

Slovenian noise-rock trio Nikki Louder are announcing new, their fourth full-length album "Trout", which will be released on December 15th 2015 on Moonlee Records and Založba Radia Študent. Impatient ones can already taste first single "Trout", which is available for streaming and free download on Moonlee Bandcamp. 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.

Croatian post-punk trio Vlasta Popić started another tour through Balkans, on which they will perform in Serbia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Romania and Hungary. On tour Vlasta Popić will promote their new album »Kvadrat«, which was released on Moonlee Records in January 2015. Musically Vlasta Popić may be related to quite a few artists such as Repetitor, Sonic Youth, Fugazi, Šarlo Akrobata, Nikki Louder, or even a bit of Bernays Propaganda and Karate. In any case, Vlasta Popić offers a nice mixture of genres that should satisfy a lot of broad and demanding musical tastes.

On their way back home three concerts will happen in Brno (CZ), Brezno (SK) and Banská Bystrica (SK) as a part of the programme Pohoda in the Clubs.

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)

End of the year is too often full of questioning about the passing year. Instead of moralising, Slovenian independent label Moonlee Records rather offers you first single »Ako nisam dobra« (And If I'm Not Good) from Croatian post-punk trio Vlasta Popić, whose new album »Kvadrat« will be released late January 2015. You can listen to loudy and noisy »Ako nisam dobra« on Moonlee Bandcamp profile, where it is available also for free download. New album by Vlasta Popić entitled «Kvadrat» will be released late January 2015 on Moonlee Records as CD and 12“ vinyl, as well as free download via Bandcamp. Vinyl will be released in coproduction with Numavi Records (Austria) and Vox Project (France). Christmas-newyear's period is supposed to be the gifting time. But what if one wasn't good enough throughout the year and didn't deserve the gifts? F**k it, listen to »Ako nisam dobra«, given away by Moonlee Records, and bravely jump into 2015. Cheers!

Slovenian hardcore veterans Iamdisease released their new album entitled »Praznina« today, December 16th 2014, for slovenian independent label Moonlee Records. It is released as a CD and also as free download via Bandcamp, where each music fan can (ab)use “name-your-price” option and support the band and the label. Iamdisease, hardcore veterans from Slovenia with members of acts such as Man In The Shadow, Low Punch, The Hoax Problem & Elodea, released their second album entitled »Praznina«, on which they continue where they left off with their previous album. The tradition of metallized hardcore of the early 90's is here further extended and combined with Black Flag's proto-sludge and the hybrid application of various extreme metal subgenres, predominantly black and death metal. Clocking just under 25 minutes, these 7 new tracks offer a consistent execution of fast-paced rhythms, jangly, dark guitar riffs with discordant melodic passages and precise bass lines under a rasp, angry vocal that delivers engaged messages to the listener. Release parties will be set in Ljubljana (Klub Gromka) on Thursday, 18.12.2014, and in Nova Gorica (Mostovna) on Friday, 19.12.2014.

Moonlee Records released new EP by croatian punkrockers Debeli Precjednik / Fat Prezident entitled "Povijest bolesti" (History of Illness) to celebrate 20th-anniversary of band's existance. They keep it simple - 4 new songs, 4 new punkrock hits. EP "Povijest bolesti" is available only as free download at Bandcamp platform, where each music fan can use »name-your-price« option and support the label and the band. However, we decided to make one step more. Even though "Povijest bolesti" EP is currently released as a free download, with your help it can appear also on 7'' vinyl. If we manage to collect enough money abusing »name-your-price« option at Moonlee Records and Debeli Precjednik Bandcamp, Moonlee Records will press 500 copies of "Povijest bolesti" 7'' EP. The idea is simple: --> If we manage to collect 1200 € via Bandcamp, Moonlee Records will release "Povijest bolesti" as a 7" vinyl in 500 copies. --> Those who will donate 5 € or more, will automatically receive 7" when it comes out (shipping costs are included). --> To make it as transparent as possible, we will post how much we gathered on a weekly basis. --> If we won't make it in the end, too bad, but keep in mind that you still supported Debeli Precjednik & Moonlee Records. And we appreciate it! But hey, together we can make it!

The restless Macedonian punk rockers known as Xaxaxa have a new album out! It's entitled «Sami Maži i Ženi» and will be released 8th September as a split release between Moonlee Records and Prügelprinz Records! Although Xaxaxa have retained their signature, Revolution Summer-influenced sound, «Sami maži i ženi» sounds a bit different than before – slightly slower, more melancholic and definitely more melodic, a change in sound also influenced by the addition of Deni Krstev from Fonija on second guitar. Nevertheless, it's an amazing record and possibly the best Xaxaxa album so far! The album will be available on CD and 12“vinyl and as a free download on Bandcamp, as usual. Also, they'll be embarking on a European tour these days, so check the dates and come see Xaxaxa if they play anywhere near you!

It's perfect time to sit back, drink some 'salep' (google it) and listen to first single from new Xaxaxa album, entitled «Vlae Salep», which you can listen and download at Moonlee Bandcamp. Third Xaxaxa album «Sami maži i ženi» will be out on September 8th 2014 on Moonlee Records and Prügelprinz Records on 12“ and CD. As usually, it will be followed by another European tour in September/October. But already next week Xaxaxa and Bernays Propaganda will do mini-tour along the Adriatic coast. Here are the dates: 31.07.2014 - Xaxaxa @ Attack, Zagreb - Monte Paradiso pre-party (HR) 01.08.2014 - Xaxaxa @ Monte Paradiso Fest, Pula (HR) 03.08.2014 - Bernays Propaganda @ Hangar Bar, Izola (SI) 05.08.2014 - Bernays Propaganda @ Super Uho fest, Šibenik (HR) 06.08.2014 - Bernays Propaganda @ Kapetanski, Zadar (HR)

So, as you've probably guessed, XAXAXA have recorded a new album and it'll be out sooner than you think! On their new record, entitled «Sami maži i ženi», the songs are somewhat slower and more melancholic than usual, but the band are still loyal to their Revolution Summer meets Hüsker Dü sound. They've also recruited a new member – Fonija's Deni Krstev is on the second guitar now, making XAXAXA a four-piece. Anyway, «Sami maži i ženi» will be out in September 2014 on Moonlee Records and Prügelprinz Records on 12“ and CD. As usual, XAXAXA will also do a European tour in September/October, but more information will be provided timely, so keep watching this space.

This year, Mr. Moonlee is marking the 10th anniversary of Moonlee Records. To be honest, we never expected all this to happen. However, being surrounded by great bands and inspiring music, the only reasonable thing was to keep on. In 2014, we are still here and excited about the future! Thanks to all the bands, »little helpers«, co-labels, journalists & media, promoters, fans and everyone else interested and supportive of what Moonlee Records is doing. We appreciate it. This special occasion will be celebrated on Saturday, June 28th 2014 at the Moonleejada 2014 festival at Gala Hala in Ljubljana. Repetitor, Debeli Precjednik, Lunar, TRUS! & kleemar will share the stage and invade your ears, whilst the special guests, DJ/VJ Samo Sloga Sound System, will take care of the afterparty. As always with Moonleejada, it will be an awesome show and a hell of a party, and you're all invited!

We will keep it short and simple, since the dates below speak the best for themselves. Bernays Propaganda are restless. And they are back in the van for their first US tour. Impressive 44 shows in 44 days. Bernays Propaganda will share the van with folk-punks Ghost Mice and indy-pop-punks High Dive. Check them out if you have a chance.
