R3_Records is a new venture by the team behind Rule of Three. The first outing for this new imprint is a series of unique releases that celebrate the history of the global underground Post-Punk, Darkwave, Coldwave and Gothic movements.
re:vision3 volume.001
The re:vision3 series focuses on contemporary artists putting their spin on underground and classic tracks from the seventies, eighties and early nineties. The first release features three unique cover versions of tracks by Trisomie 21, Fad Gadget and P1/E. Taking up the reigns on volume.001 are Crying Vessel from US/Switzerland, La Mécanique from Canada and Egoprisme from France.
The first in the series is a three track EP that features lovingly crafted cover versions of The Last Song (Trisomie 21) by Crying Vessel, Lady Shave (Fad Gadget) by La Mécanique and 49 Second Romance (P1/E) by Egoprisme.
“I wanted to give the true goth/wave classic a new boot with different production styles used today while retaining that flare of melancholic repetitive substance.”
– Slade [ Crying Vessel ]
“Frank Tovey is one of my favourite artists. When you watch his live performances you see a crazy, eccentric and innovative artist. I really like the Lady Shave lyrics too… they’re still very relevant today.”
– Francis [ La Mécanique ]
“I really liked the song that was chosen for me and I thought it could be a good opportunity to try and explore more minimalistic sounds. The result is dense and massive.”
– Jean Marc [ Egoprisme ]
R3_Records primary focus is to distribute premium, high quality material in small batches with a fundamental desire to make music collectable again. The re:vision3 series is the first in a set of boutique releases featuring the finest underground talent from around the world today.
The EP will be released on 30th January 2019.
