Press Release The return of the Hungarian duo is one of the most awaited and appreciated events for all the fans of old-school EBM's sound: directly from Budapest, the legendary Escalator break into the scene with the same technological determination that has made them so longeval and famous worldwide. The new album remarks with great effectiveness their inimitable music style that since 1988 connects elements Kraftwerk-oriented to the more advanced industrial alchemies, offering a tracklist in possession of each element to be considered winning: sounds electronically attractive, danceable rhythms, evolved formulas combined with implicit evocations of the best Cabaret Voltaire and Front 242. The experimentation remains one of the basic principles for 2RT + TB who introduce into the new tracks many sound-processing that will delight the followers of the "intelligent" EBM's concept, ensuring to the new release an exceptional visibility. After the great resonance obtained by the previous album "Out Of My Ego", we are very proud to present "Let There Be Lie", into which nucleus they whirl eight songs as fascinating as extraterrestrial sculptures. To celebrate this spectacular re-entry, the Escalator will publish the album "Let There Be Lie" in only 300 copies recorded on vinyl limited edition, an event that the collectors should consider simply unmissable! The magnificence of the artificial sound created by a band among the best in its genre: you must wait from now for something extraordinary.

Press Release The first band out on the red E|K-Product carpet is the Hungarian EBM act ESCALATOR. A band with roots from the 80’s EBM scene . We consider this Hungarian duo not only a ”cult band”, but also one of the most important band in EBM history, a band able to develop a personal journey in a very notable and independent way.
Press Release Thinking about Eastern Europe and EBM, it is probably BORGHESIA and LAIBACH which immediately come to your mind and which also had great international success. However, despite several performances on national television and a contract with the Hungarian subsidiary of the major label EMI, ESCALATOR never became popular beyond national borders. It was not until the first two brilliant gigs in the BeatClub Dessau and at the ELEKTRISCH FESTIVAL that ESCALATOR could show that they had enough potential to get EBM heads outside of Hungary excited, too. On March 02, 2009, ESCALATOR is to publish a best of album of their 20 years band history at the EBM-family-label Electric Tremor Dessau, which will not only stir the blood of the fans of first-generation EBM.
