Kussu Music Publishing Enters Into An Exclusive Publishing Deal With The Super German Alternative Techno Duo "BlackIsBeautiful"

The masters of "Realtime Art", the way BlackIsBeautiful describe their electronic music art, are going to celebrate their debut EP due out September 25th on cologne based label "200".

Inspired by the aesthetics of analogue music devices, DJing and live band experiences, BlackIsBeautiful production and live shows are sensational and unforgettable events. Both artists/producers met two years ago at VRSTCK Club in Dortmund-City (Germany). Ever since Uemit Han and Tim Dicke have been working together to create and develop a special live-performance as well as a "realtime production style" that both describe as "Alternative Techno".

Tim Dicke has paved his way into the electronic scene through being a drummer, bassist and solo artist in Punk and Hardcore bands in the 90s and later on as a DJ, while Uemit Han has been working as a DJ for the last 15 years including 9 years of music production experience. In 2006, Uemit won the remix contest to Gabriel Ananda's "Gluecksmelodie" and also released tracks on Karmarouge, Meerestief, Harthouse and other labels.

BlackIsBeautiful have created two real handicrafted tracks "Alerion and Purpur": mesmerizing and enthralling at the same time! Music that invites you to dance and yet puts you to rest for a closer listen. Attention to detail and experiment-happiness get you addicted to BlackIsBeautiful - Occasional street recordings of sounds in everyday life and sampling of snap-shots run through their dynamic sound images.
