"We are rebuilding the planet", announce the first lines of the brand new AD: keY album, titled "Anthropocene"- The Age of Man. The new geological age. Man changes nature, reshapes his home planet.AD: keY set to music the process - which will completely change our home planet for the next ten thousand years. Announcing misfortune, electronic basses dig through the brain in machine time, buzzing melody fragments through the room, while surfaces weave their dramatic webs.For almost three years the EBM couple Andrea and Rene Nowotny took their time to create thirteen songs about human thinking and acting. In their texts, man is at the centre of consideration, his relationship to technology and his environment - to himself. Being human is controversial. It is their unmistakable AD: keY-Sound, which the two Berliners sound on "Anthropozän" - Electronic Body Music meets Neue Deutsche Welle. Hard sequencer runs chase after metallic drums in the best Armageddon Dildos tradition, bubbling synthesizers chase their melodies, string arrangements combine everything to a complete picture. And about all this Andrea? s and Rene? s undistorted singing - sometimes dark and threatening, sometimes cheeky and loud - as EBM deserves.
