Within just one year afmusic got off to a lightning start. The most innovative netlabel in Germany for Darkwave, Gothic and Independent Music celebrates on the label founder Falk Merten’s birthday their release-anniversary and distributes big presents to their fans – and that are 16 in number on this fiftieth publication.
All are on this Anniversary-Compilation “AFMUSIC #50″. Exactly one dozen of it are previously unreleased or recorded exclusively for this release. Beside many known afmusic-acts the sampler also presents an absolutely new band. Therefore, it is less a retrospective, than even more a look in the future of the label.
“AFMUSIC #50″ indicates not only the variety and versatility of the present releases, but also their high musical and artistic quality. LATRISTE – the newest member of the label family – immediately deliver with her first song a potential hit single. SMOKE FISH and EMERALD PARK contribute dark-coloured pop pearls of the grade 1A and CONFUSION IS NEXT are represented, just like LIGHT IN YOUR LIFE with a dreadfully nice ballad. Thereby the music ranges from Shoegaze to the sturdy Alternative rock.
SPINEFISH, (((S))) and ART NOIR provide for the dark sound-collage which hold together “AFMUSIC #50″ and lend a breathtaking atmosphere to the album.
In between the big potential of a lot of afmusic-bands flashes: The label-draught-horses ALL:MY:FAULTS cement with a never been there mixture of 8-bit Postmetal and spoken words their exceptional position as the most innovative German band of the scene. STROMBLE FIX’s “Dispirited” is more progressively Hybrid from Grunge and Deathrock, “Enjoy” of REPTILE71 is more sombre than the legendary “Drowning one” and CAMP Z present a modern version of the Sisters Of Mercy.
Crowning end of the completely successful afmusic-show is the “Smells Like Teen Spirit” cover, which is the most stretching cover with wide distance of this decade.
From the 7th of August “AFMUSIC #50″ is ready to download for free on www.af-music.de.
A nice bass can carry everything. Nothing can disfigure a nice sound. This is why not only its warm wave-jacket is very becoming to the self-entitled debut by the Scandinavian DISKOTEKET. It makes even in a Gothrock-garment or Psychodelic-pullover an excellent figure.

The songs are fitted out really wonderful. They’ve kept their own trousers on – perfectly combined with the best eye-catchers from the clothes-boxes of the SISTERS OF MERCY and the legendary CHAMELEONS. Moreover, on the attic of the TALKING HEADS the four from Sweden found some thrilling accessories, and so the New Wave-Post Punk-stylemix got its final polish.
“Diskoteket” not only have what it takes to get from the Scene-Dj’s CD racks and hard-disks right on their turntables – the record will bump into open ears far beyond the scene as well.
