nylenda – Fires Light by Brilliance Records published on 2018-10-02T08:05:47Z Nylenda is set to release their fourth single Fires Light 2. November at Eget Selskap/Brilliance. Fires Light might be their most ambitious release yet, through 6 minutes they take you on a full-fledged journey through their universe of psychedelic pop, space disco and krautrock. The lyrics are partly inspired by a dream sequence from the cult TV-show Twin Peaks. The music overlay this slight surrealistic and dreamy mood, where the progression of the song takes unexpected twists and turns along the way. The Norwegian trio nylenda serves up a danceable mix of psychedelic pop and electronic music. Using an all hardware set-up of analog synths, drum machines, organ, bass and guitar, nylenda has created an idiosyncratic sound that is both fresh and catchy. Since the release of their first single "Burning Eyes" in the fall of 2017 nylenda has put them self on the map of Norway ́s music scene, playing at the by:Larm festival 2018 where they were granted a song writing scholarship from NOPA (Norwegian Society of Composers and Lyricists), Vill Vill Vest festival 2018, and Liveurope Festival Oslo that presented some of the most exciting new acts from Scandinavia to bookers across Europe. QUOTES ”nylenda's debut single is a stunning introduction to their world (...)An insistent electronic pulse reminiscent of the likes of Harmonia and Neu! combines with a percussive groove and psychedelic vocals, bringing together '60s looseness and '70s rigidity. The effect is for "Burning Eyes" to be a track which you can equally imagine being at home in a studio surrounded by antiquated recording devices as it would being blasted out at a club. Sure, it's meticulously crafted, but it's also danceable as hell”. – The Line Of Best Fit “The hardware set-up that meets me when I enter the venue looks like something that could have sent the Apollo 11 to the moon. Behind the wall of synthesizers, wires and knobs three bearded men are about to take us on a musical journey through four decades. Psychedelic guitars, synth pop, space disco, techno and acid are mixed together with a bright vocal that sets a dreamy mood in venue. I ́m thinking this is some incredible funky stuff, and I have to put down my notebook to dance”. - Stoffmagasin (Vill Vill Vest 2018)
