Electronic Corporation and heimelektronik return on 20 June through Mannequin Records with a 12-inch EP that feels like a proper machine-room excavation. The release gathers four tracks: Illuminate and We Got Velocity from Electronic Corporation, plus My Darkest Sounds and Nothing But My Beat from heimelektronik. Originally tied to early-2000s electro and EBM culture, the material now returns in a new vinyl frame, pushed by sharp sequencing, hard drum programming, cold-wave mood and industrial-post-punk discipline. This is not nostalgia as soft-focus comfort. It is archive work for people who like their history metallic, functional and sweating under fluorescent lights. Mannequin has long understood the power of cold waves, and this release keeps that voltage running through the floor.
