Fortress Europe &
Moonflower are pleased to announce the release of their new EP 1925-1988,
and the propulsive second single and accompanying video Sigilator.
1925-1988 is a delirious lockdown collaboration between
award-winning composer Leon Radojkovic of Fortress Europe, and Scott Satherley
of Auckland doom juggernauts Demons of Noon, working under the moniker
Moonflower. The EP combines the cinematic Eastern European fervour and
instrumental sophistication of Fortress Europe with the gothic Mama's & The
Papa's vocals and weird poetry of Moonflower. The result is a primal and
emotive psychedelic odyssey and ecstatic confrontation of existential angst,
romantic longing and erotic mysticism.
The EP's propulsive second single Sigilator is a feverish dance track
featuring hypnotic and elliptical vocals from Satherley and Brodie Hoare,
backed by Turkish saz, Croatian tamburica, surf guitar and heavy synth bass and
beats.
The musical world of 1925-1988 is accompanied by rich imagery
and videos by Satherley, an accomplished visual artist, combining provocative
cinematic fragmentation and superimposition with elements of Balkan
architecture, traditional embroidery patterns and religious illumination.
