NewAgeOutlaw Obscure, liminal, boombastic, romantic...agree with people here bringing Depeche Mode's own Ultra on the table. This is even more paranoid but not oppressive. Essential stuff Favorite track: Nightcall.

xrudyx Found this thanks to the other Mixed Up releases, fell in love with the abstract noise in the background, this track somehow reminds of Depeche Mode's Ultra...if it was just instrumentals! Totally recommended Favorite track: Nightcall.

about

We’re delighted to finally present the definitive cassette edition of Deaf Youth by label head Danilo Betti in his April Clocks guise.
Made of a bunch of recordings he made during the Mixed Up record store years in the city of Rimini and now finely remastered by Miles Whittaker of Demdike Stare for a perfect pitch black audio trip never heard so damn good before.
Armed with synthesisers, drum machines and various pedal effects units, Betti channels a late night noir drone saga, and expands his trademark reverbered chords and broken drums to the blackest, shoegazing industrial of Seefeel’s Succour era, Alessandro Cortini’s experiments with ambient and the classic minimal, glacial noise atmospheres by Pan Sonic - just with an extra spike of romance and, we’d say, typical youth persistence.
