Instans

Dark danceable EBM/electro hailing from Sweden.

The band consists of Ulf Lundblad and Fredrik Djurfeldt who both have been collaborating in different constellations before getting together to create instans in the fall of 2004.
The duo met in Göteborg, Sweden, in 2000 and started the harsh EBM act Severe Illusion. They are still working under that moniker and has until today released two albums, as well as a MCD and a split vinyl lp together with electro terrorists The Pain Machinery.
After finishing recording the second album for Severe Illusion, the members felt they needed to rinse their brains from the messy beats and broken down melodies that had surrounded them for so long. instans was born.
Totally danceable and with strong, minimalistic melodies the music of the new band was still well within the borders of the modern electronic music, but yet marked a new direction in the artists progress. Combining the forces of haunting rhythmic and distorted vocals instans sets a new standard for hard electronics.

The first demo was recorded during a five day session in early September 2004. About a month later the band was signed to polish EBM label Black Flames records.

However, the record label eventually went out of business and the album was very much delayed. In early 2006 the band agreed to release the album on Advoxya Records. It was finally released on December 15:th.
