Mechanical Moth was formed in 2002 in Darmstadt by Tandrin, initially under the name Projekt Rosenhöhe.
From the beginning until today the music of Mechanical Moth combines elements from many styles, including electro, goth rock, industrial, darkwave, and symphonic as well as orchestral music.
The basis, however, is and has always been Gothic. Also in 2002, Mechanical Moth was completed by the voice of singer Matricide.
Twenty-two years into the band's existence, Tandrin and Ivy have coalesced into a joint mastermind, roaming the everyday cosmos together as they work on N8. In their insatiable search for inspiration and technical possibilities, they have created a musical kaleidoscope with their 8th album. A multi-faceted splinter image that sets the recurring themes of self-reflection, past and future as well as emotional abysses in a framework with the usual strong recognition value.
N8 :
With the 8th album, the musical and artistic transformation of recent years really picks up speed.
With N8, Mechanical Moth delves even deeper into the band's strength of fully utilizing the bandwidth of electro wave and interpreting it in its very own way.
The music was created exclusively with hardware synths and drum computers.
The unpredictability of overheated analog instruments reflects the fragility of the soul.
The powerful, deliberately not always completely clean sound is the organic canvas on which N8 is painted.
The claim of the lyrics is nothing less than a dance around the light of pulsating beats,
beguiling melodies and a vocal borderline that combines the soul of the night with soulful-jazzy elements,
great emotional intensity and an excursion into spoken word.
The powerful voice of our friend Bastian (Intent:Outtake and Funker Vogt) was contributed for Access.
The music videos, all self-produced, are also seen as part of the overall work of art.
