With the release in 2008 of their debut album "Body Code" on
Alfa Matrix, Belarusian act DIFFUZION seduced the world with
their fresh and highly melodic female-fronted techno-pop/EBM. On
this new album, "Winter Cities", DIFFUZION expand their musical
horizons and reveal how much they have gained in songwriting
maturity and production finesse.
Armed with an overall solid club compatibility, the new songs
thrust you into an uplifting emotional climax where intelligent
synthetic song arrangements enter into symbiosis with addictive
melodies and the strong and sensual vocal performance of their
charismatic female singer Xev. Alternating between straight and
harder industrial moments ("C.S.", "Pure Venom" and "DbD") and
then embracing mid-tempo darkwave textures ("Lace Of Veins",
"The One" and also the album title track), "Winter Cities" will
surprise you with its unique mixture of frozen electronic tones
and haunting catchy vocals. Take the upfront dance-power of body
music, spice it with the revolting sexiness of AYRIA, the
catchiness of DE/VISION and the impulsive anger of PZYCHOBITCH,
then melt the whole together with the intricate arrangements of
FRONT LINE ASSEMBLY, and you get the explosive cocktail we might
call DIFFUZION...
The CD comes with two bonus versions of the club hit "C.S."
respectively rendered by the Swedish tough guys of AUTODAFEH,
with their faultless pumping basslines, and by label-mates
ACYLUM, with their sinister bombastic dark elektro assaults.
The limited carton box edition of "Winter Cities" also contains
a bonus CD with a great variety of remixes, including
intelligent, inspiring electro and EBM cuts by bands such as
CONTROLLED COLLAPSE, MORTAL VOID, IMPLANT, [DE:AD:CIBEL], EFF
DST, IN[TOXIN], plus a sophisticated, harmonic industrial track
from FABIOUS CORPUS ACT, an uplifting future pop remix by their
Belgium colleagues PSY'AVIAH, a dark EBM tune by CYGNOSIC, and a
mysterious and deep remix by L'ÆOMBRE. Add to this a cover
version of DEPECHE MODE's classic "Here Is the House" and a
cover of DIFFUZION by TILL IT BLEEDS, plus an enchanting
collaboration with INXERA SYNDROME...
