Belgian #AltElectro band #Front242’s 1984 album NO COMMENT originated the term #EBM when the band included the phrase "Electronic Body Music Composed and Produced On Eight Tracks by Front 242”- the deeper cut “Lovely Day” was a Starck fave

MODEBIONICS (USA). Active 2021-present. Atmospheric, shadowy electronics by way of 90's era Dark Electro Industrial. Some EBM crossover. Captures the cybernetic aesthetics of the 90's. A newer project to keep an eye on. Especially if you like old FLA & XMTP. #industrialmusic
