Come With Me is the title of the newest Digital Factor EP which holds 10 tracks. That's correct, one of the most missed cult electro-EBM bands from the early nineties is back. Not only will Digital Factor release a new single, the German band have equally announced their forthcoming 8th studio album on their new label Alfa Matrix.
While spending the last years writing music for movies, theatre, adverts, radio plays and producing other artists, original founding member Mike Langer took the time to upgrade his home studio to reactivate Digital Factor.
This Come With Me 10-track EP offers an excellent mix of synth pop and EBM. Next to the future pop inspired Come With Me title track, you get various versions of the track going from an eighties synth pop mix to Heise’s house/dance version, from an old school EBM version by Damascus Knives to an acoustic piano version. You also get a trancey remake by Margaret Street and remixes by Armageddon Dildos and Ah Camarillos Sotz.
The EP also holds a second new song, I Am Dangerous. This track offers a more modern and eclectic electro approach merging Front 242-esque basslines, female vocals and powerful male vocals.
Also launched today is the official video clip for Come with me, depicting how seductive products, ideas or chemicals can sometimes be by promising us that ultimate trip that we can’t resist.
