Press Release Here is the fourth full length album by Tobias Bernstrup... moving away a bit from the italo influenced sound of his previous releases this is much more produced as a state of the art contemporary synth pop record… but don't be afraid... these are still tracks to dance away on in the dark of the night... next to up to date dance music orientated pieces there are also tracks with a more classic approach… like EBM style rhythms and 80’s influenced synthpop tunes… and throughout the album there is the typical Tobias Bernstrup touch of decadent and hedonistic moods... next to that this release features a remix by EBM and futurepop star Apoptygma Berzerk… giving the album just another future dancefloor favorite for sure!

Press Release Hate Is Love... Swedish visual and performance artist Tobias Bernstrup looks like a 21st century Klaus Nomi. His visual work is presented at exhibitions world wide. Next to that he is a gifted musician. He is able to create extremely catchy synth /elektro pop tunes while never crossing the line of delivering overproduced tracks. The sound of his tracks is like a hybrid of the arty side of Klaus Nomi with the pop side of Pet Shop Boys. This 4 track EP is built around the theme (and title track) ‘1984’. But this theme is extended and made up to date. The Orwellian theme of total state control in which civilians are constantly watched and reality is manipulated is probably more actual as ever. This central theme is given a more individual and neo-romantic touch with the track ‘Light Years Apart’, while the hostile state aspect is getting more of a sci-fi interpretation in ‘Enemies Of The Earth’. Closing track ‘Data Love’ combines the Orwellian sentiments of loneliness with the more contemporary vision on modern mankind of Houellebecq. The cover sleeve consists of two paintings by Tobias Bernstrup himself and fits the central theme perfectly. Despite the rather serious theme of the record this EP features simply excellent decadent music for the dancefloor. It combines elements of classic synth pop, elektro, EBM, italo disco and laser dance. There is no escape... you will have to love it!
