SZOP ‎– Plama

The newly formed Shades Of Blur label comes out blazing with this electro and new wave firework, an EP drawing on various subgenres like electroclash, punk and nu-romantic. Each track here explores strong visions of classic sounding bands – ‘Plama 1’ is pure electro post-punk that infuses a bit of EBM and techno while ‘Plama 2’ has echoes of New Order’s Confusion. We especially like ‘Plama 3’ with the slower electro funk that sounds like a mix of Severed Heads, Chris & Cosey and Throbbing Gristle and ‘Plama 4’ sounds like some kind of YMO outtake. If these are any sign of what’s to come, than Shades Of Blur will be a label to look out for.
