Berlin-based Curses blends New Wave and Post-Punk with his ghostly vocals and guitars, punctuated with flashes of 80′s EBM and New Beat. The debut album from Curses, ‘Romantic Fiction’ dropped on Jennifer Cardini’s Dischi Autunno imprint in October 2018, launching his live act which brings the guitars, vocals and energy of the album to stage as a duo.
Whether it’s performing live at the late Andrew Weatherall’s Convenanza Festival, or DJng in the main room at Circoloco DC-10, Curses manages to somehow bring his punk and new wave attitude to all dance floors small and big. Always keeping true to his unique mix of a dark 80′s driven sound.
Curses has released a handful of EP’s on labels such as Hoga Nord, Bordello A Parigi, Throne Of Blood, and his own imprint, Ombra International, and known for incorporating live guitars and instruments into his remix work. In 2021, Curses curated a double vinyl compilation (NEXT WAVE ACID PUNX) on Eskimo Recordings, incorporating key past musical influences with modern artists today, that share this mutual love of mixing guitar and synth based genres.
The anticipated 2nd album, ‘Incarnadine’ is scheduled to release in the Autumn of 2021 on Dischi Autunno.
