#002 - A Split-Second

I've had some plans to get to know to EBM (aka electronic body music) also quite some time. I've never had real understanding what the hell is this genre about. That electronic body music is not giving any hints to me at least. But another term used to describe this same thing opens many doors. Industrial dance, now I get it. So in practice I've listened a lot of EBM without knowing it.

Next band found from Spotify is Belgian A Split-Second, a duo by Marc Ickx and Peter Bonne. They split up 1991 and Ickx continued on it's own with A Split-Second..But anyway since 2000 this group is more or less featured only in compilations. One remix album, called Transmix, found from Spotify has been released in 2001 containing duos songs between 1986-1991 remixed Nicolas Mansy and Chrismar Chayel. I have to say I like this quite a lot. Even though I like more harsh sound, this is anyway really catchy stuff. Those originals versions are actually even better than these little more blnd remixes.

Original version of their second single Rigor Mortis which is available also in Youtube is actually really good.
