born in ruins' is the second full length release from leipzig based, blac kolor. prepare to be transported into a dystopian soundscape which is intensely rhythmic, experimental and hypnotic at the same time, giving a whole new dynamic to this project. the massive bass drums and lashing whip-like sounds combined with slowly floating synth sounds create a permanent game of contrasts. enormously different than the dark techno sound of the first album 'wide noise', it is a haunting memorandum of sorts. an equally disturbing and deeply engaging retrospective journey from dark ruins, where only a faint distant light falls.
