Brooklyn, NY electronic/industrial/techno DJ/producer Bryan Black aka Black Asteroid has announced his second studio album ‘Infinite Darkness‘.
Along with the album announcement, Black Asteroid premiered the lead single “Ashes and Dust” featuring featuring Vancouver, BC cold wave/post-punk/synth pop band ACTORS. The 11-track record will be out on May 3 through Artoffact Records. Pre-order your copy here.
The highly-anticipated and truly original crossover record goes where techno has never gone before. Guitars and vocals are featured prominently, alongside a wall of modular synths to create solid machine-driven grooves and atmospheres that coalesce with the live performances – a sound that is uniquely Black Asteroid. Produced over the span of five years, the album features incredible talent, including Ian Astbury of The Cult, ACTORS, Louisahhh, Michele Lamy, Front Line Assembly, Blush Response, and Speedy J.
Speaking about the collaboration with ACTORS, Bryan Black (aka Black Asteroid) shares: “During Covid, I went back to my love and passion for songs. For vocals, for danger, for soul. I discovered ACTORS around this time, and sent the singer an instrumental I had been picking at for a few years. He sent it back, and with a guitar too!“
