Sounds from the Heart Festival – Pink Turns Blue (GER) + Iamnoone (ITA) + Midas Fall (SCO)

– Presented by: Sounds from the Heart Festival
– About: Concert + Party
– Pink Turns Blue: Formed in 1985 in the first generation of gothic rock and named after a Hüsker Dü song, today Pink Turns Blue is Mic Jogwer (vocals, guitar), Paul Richter (drums) and Luca Sammuri (bass). Their debut album ‘If Two Worlds Kiss’ advanced the darkwave sub-genre while becoming a seminal post-punk album. Emerging from the fear and uncertainty of Cold War Germany, they have since released a dozen full-length LPs. Both the ‘Tainted’ LP and the new EP relate to a world in havoc and the seemingly powerlessness of today’s youth to take over the world and change it for the better. This album is also a call to never give up, to never lose faith or the understanding that making this world just a bit better every day is what makes our lives worth living.
– Iamnoone: Sometimes, a path one chooses, crosses another path chosen by a like-minded person. Iamnoone was born at one of these crossroads. The darkness, the abysses, the solitudes, but also the search for the Light and for the awareness allowed us to see each other and to speak the language we had in common: music. Through that, we explore the limits of the soul and the perks of being peculiar human beings: feeling no one for the rest of the world, but finding a common goal in losing each Ego in the embrace of Music. Cold wave, dark wave, occult wave could be genres that give an idea about Iamnoone music. Solid drum base with nostalgically retro sounding synths, the pound of the five strings bass with unobtrusive riffs of the bass VI, the vocals fading with the whole musical picture, and the piano adding its unique colours; everything is shrouded in the atmosphere of a dream, of a trip to the deep self, of a search for the inner light. We believe only through being no one we can, at last, reach peace.
– Midas Fall: Combining elements of electronica, post-rock and alternative rock with progressive and gothic undertones, Scottish band Midas Fall have carved a distinctive and captivating sound, creating taut, shimmering soundscapes led by the hauntingly melancholic vocals of Elizabeth Heaton – a sound described as “ethereal, haunting and bewitching. They work on another plane, post rock melancholy with the icy beauty associated with the electronica of Olafur Arnalds.
