Lovataraxx

Sobre

Lovataraxx ( Minimal Synth / Coldwave / Dark-electro) has been formed out of the blue in 2013, while crossing the Williamsburg bridge during a Spring break. Staring at the grey and pink stripes of the bridge’s structure, the nascent duet decided to deal with a rollercoaster of emotions in his music and lyrics. Lovataraxx explores the depths of a minimal wave, dark electronic and post-punk music. On stage, the two musicians are surrounded by corrosive synthesizers, sharp drum machines and a bass drowned in chorus effects. Straddling both eighties and nineties influences, Lovataraxx’s esthetic is nurtured by greek mythology, sci-fi- K.Dick - like novels, and romantic poetry. Enchanting voices, Carpenter’s like synth melodies : it all sounds simultaneously strange and familiar, it all fluctuates between the delusive feelings of the blind hunky-dory days and the long despairs of a lost generation. The audience dance, galvanized by the stage presence of a front woman with her boxer’s braids, switching from english to german language on high speed beats. The duet plays often live with a Vjay sending loop figures in his old TV screens. Lovataraxx's second LP named Sophomore will be out on the German label Cold Transmission Music in April 2024.
