Australian enigmatic artist EDDIE has returned with the latest edition of his Onzeker Kraft EP series, now out via HypnoVizion. His second EP on the label and the follow-up to the series’ first installment last year, Vol 1.5 features previously released singles “UP/DOWN,” “Pocketknife” with Lights, “Damned” with FISE and Colleen D’Agostino, and “Caffeine Induced Psychosis” with Quackson.
Onzeker Kraft Vol 1.5 is an exciting 6-track collection of industrial tones, bass-heavy builds, and mechanical accents that align with the experimental and off-kilter nature of EDDIE’s signature sound. The EP tests the boundaries of EDDIE’s left-of-center tendencies as he counters daring instrumentals with edgy vocal samples and powerful toplines from Lights and Colleen D’Agostino. Expanding on the intrepid midtempo bass style that lingers throughout the EP, Vol 1.5 is complemented by two new solo tracks, “Check This” and “Collected Souls,” that add to the EP’s intrigue with their ominous and meddlesome nature.
“This EP is special to me because it’s the second and final installment of my Onzeker Kraft series (or is it?), but for real, it’s a series of music where I’ve been able to express different corners of my specific style of bass music.” – EDDIE
