The Rattler Proxy, a sonic duo from Athens, Greece, release their second single featuring two original songs - "Company of Wolves" and "Death Machine" - along with two remixes of the latter by Antoni Maiovvi and Jokers Of The Scene.
Drawing influences from the likes of Suicide and the dark and synth-heavy soundtrack work of John Carpenter, The Rattler Proxy explore the realm of urban alienation through intense and claustrophobic soundscapes. Often swapping their pulsating electronic crawl, for digital rockabilly-esque freak-outs, theirs is a world of back alleys and gang laden imagery, a rhythmic decent into a hellish, concrete landscape.
"Death Machine" is a lush electronic bossa ode to serial killer Richard "The Night Stalker" Ramirez, while "Company of Wolves" is a hyperactive stomper that runs with the pack. Antoni Maiovvi's teutonic reinterpretation of "Death Machine" is a brooding hair raiser that will make you look over your shoulder more than once, while the Jokers Of The Scene deliver a dark balearic epic that stretches out to 9 minutes and 53 seconds
"Death Machine" is issued by Lurid Music. The 12" is hand-stenciled, hand-stamped and hand-numbered in a limited edition of 300 white & silver spray-painted record sleeves. Mastering by Marcoantonio Spaventi, pressing by MPO France. Please find one-minute samples and photos attached.
