Alec Empire - Making of 'Shivers' + Interview pt.2


"After the critical acclaim of 2008s, The Golden Foretaste of Heaven, Alec Empire releases Shivers, a 7 track mini album that serves up as a little taster for his highly anticipated new album out later this year.

This is the most recent output from The Hellish Vortex, the production team founded by Alec Empire and Nic Endo.

Last year, Empire announced a change in direction, a departure from his signature digital hardcore sound and called it The Sound of New Berlin. This sonic revolution has brought about an influx of hipster collaborations in the form of Raveonettes, who got their single remixed by Nic Endo and Alecs mutual pairing with one, Patrick Wolf, whos Berlin musings have led to the hotly tipped single, Vultures.


Past-Present-Future Tour 2009:
Alec Empire and Nic Endo present a special tour this year playing material from ATR to songs from the next album. Starting April 30th.

  1. I love Alec Empire's stuff! All the way to mid 90's ATR and beyond. All the DHR stuff.

    I'd like to know what reverb he was running all his stuff through.

  2. That poor Moog theremin has been regulated to shelf duty. Nice to see a Sherman Quad filter in action. Did not realize how large that Jomox SunSyn really is and love that Arp2600 and the White Moog.

  3. I thought his music was crap.
