BALROG - Chain Of Command [IOD053] by Instruments of Discipline published on 2022-02-02T18:04:28Z Artist: Balrog Release: The Nothern Powerhouse' LP Cat number: IOD053 Release date: 14.02 Format: CD & digital Balrog’s debut album, “The Northern Powerhouse” is composed of 8 hard-hitting techno tracks, focusing on heavy, groove-ridden drums, driving basslines and obscure, distorted vocals. His tracks take influence from classic, hard-grooving techno but with a fresh injection of modern, industrial power. The framework for the tracks was developed in the midst of the fallout from the UK leaving the EU and the numerous attempts to “level up” the north of the country through The Northern Powerhouse scheme, from which the album derives its name. Conceptually, the album is an attempt from the artist to dissociate himself from Brexit and the conservative government which has consistently stigmatised the most vulnerable in UK society and spread lies on an industrial scale in order to push forward their agenda. Through the album, a series of linked tracks mirror the raw divisions in society, not just between The North and The South of the UK, but also more widely representing divisions throughout the world. As the album develops, a more hopeful outcome is suggested, seeing the culture of underground music as having the potential to build connections and incite resistance in an increasingly divided world. https://soundcloud.com/balrogtechno https://www.facebook.com/Balrog/ Genre Techno Comment by 町田エレキテル連合 🫱🫲 2024-01-27T19:45:26Z Comment by isotope²³ quality content, brother 👌 2023-10-31T03:06:45Z Comment by Buddha On Acid holyyyyyyyyy ffffff 2022-11-14T06:12:51Z Comment by ASHjACK 😱 2022-06-07T13:20:20Z Comment by DjPepsi hm hmmm 2022-05-19T10:33:59Z Comment by Technoscence Anticipate, contract or fade in black. 2022-04-30T20:43:47Z Comment by V̸A̸R̸G̸R̸ ⛓⛓⛓yeahhh 2022-04-25T01:07:25Z Comment by DjPepsi incredible vocal 2022-03-24T21:03:55Z Comment by DjPepsi ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 2022-03-24T21:03:17Z Comment by Andrea Bambi Super power 2022-03-09T08:48:20Z Comment by Lenz love it! 2022-02-20T21:24:12Z Comment by DAV.
