Nordika's fifth album will be available in physical and digital format as of April 14, 2017, containing 10 new and unpublished songs, written and produced by Hector A. Marin, mixed and mastered in Aquo Rec Records, released by Scent Air Records from Russia, limited edition to 300 pieces, in golden disc, with booklet of letters to 8 pages, contains the participation of the Mexican photography firm "Infocus Fotografia" and the creation of art by "Proyecta Design". At the musical level, the album maintains the scent that characterizes it and also includes two new songs in the native language of the band in Spanish (one of them written in the city of La Oroya on the Nordika tour in Peru at the end of 2016) In addition to 8 new songs in English, all of them going through a sequence of emotions. Introspection, lust, pain and madness are part of this "Ecstasy". In the cover and general concept, Nordika sought to create something that evoked sensuality, emotion, frenzy. It was thanks to the participation of the model Ginette Vidal and the talented photographer Aaron Diaz "I have always wanted to make nude photos that have an aesthetic and technical justification, in this photo I wanted to achieve a sublime representation of the female body, which would lead the viewer more beyond the natural morbid " After the great "Blut" in 2016 with many collaborations, in this album Nordika sought to make a 100% Nordika album, in Alex's words, "this album sounds like we always wanted a Nordika album to sound". Nordika is very grateful for the support received on this album from Russia, to reach all corners of the world, an album made with much effort, dedication and proudly made in Mexico.

Ultranoire a German/Hungarian duo are growing in popularity in the Hungarian and foreign dark underground scene. Are due to release their long awaited second album Intronaut in January 2017 following success with their debut album Disclosure. Ultranoire approaches vintage synthpop from its darker side (somewhere in between, Kraftwerk and early Depeche Mode) combining sensual baritone vocals with some gloomy, cold mid tempo electronic sounds. The new album Intronaut is an ambitious mid tempo synthesis with a little deeper tone than their previous one. The lyrics are characterised by easily opening metaphores and pictures. Josef Stapel the bands singer/songwritrer calls these songs as a journey into the private cosmos. A dying internal entropic universe of an “Intronaut” being a person suffering from anxious depression caused by personal life crisis’. The sound was consciously designed to invoke the synth wave mood of the 80s and 90s. Intronaut contains 9 songs and 2 instrumental tracks. It will be available from January 2017 as a CD format and digital download released by ScentAir Records.
