Diskonnekted - Old School Policies / The Propaganda |
 |
Review
On Diskonnekted’s third full length album “Old School Policies”, Belgian artist Jan Dewulf shows his furious face and shoots his anger at religious freaks and other conservative propaganda / politicians. Armed with sonic bullets like “Pray Vote Donate Buy”, “Adrenaline”, and “Nu Speak”, Diskonnekted give an apocalyptic setting to this new electronic journey - holding nothing back even on more laid-back and highly emotional songs like “When I Come To Fall” or the splendid “Storm” featuring Frank M. Spinath ( Seabound / Edge Of Dawn ) as vocalist.
While “OId School Policies” will probably and rightly be perceived as Diskonnekted's darkest album ever ( and which logically follows the sound of chilling noir atmospheres found on their predecessor and huge club-hit “Frozen” EP recorded with Dirk Ivens of Dive, Sonar, Klinik etc ) this new CD is also the most open and diverse work to date. The characteristic Diskonnekted groovy vibes are given new orientations ranging from the explosive industrial hip hop / electro collaboration with SMP on “Anger” to the lush classy edged synth pop on “Storm” to the Industrial dance on the viral club-filler “Pray Vote Donate Buy”.
The album brilliantly jumps from upbeat scenarios to more relaxed moments while keeping its full anger intact delivering modern and uncompromising electronic music made in Belgium.
