🔵 UNTER STRØM — Transmission 003: Live at the Breathing Records Showcase

  From UNITED STATES 

U

NTER STRØM is an electronic musical duo forged in the shadows of Los Angeles and San Diego, blending raw industrial grit with melodic finesse. Led by Alex Gonzales (Matte Blvck) and John Kunkel (The New Division, John Grand), the project is a collision of two prolific creative forces & longtime collaborators whose roots run deep in the darker corners of electronic and alternative music. 

Gonzales has been on a sharp upward trajectory with Matte Blvck, building a global fanbase through relentless touring and a string of sold-out shows across the United States, while Kunkel’s work as John Grand has earned support from tastemakers like Armin van Buuren on A State of Trance and a guest mix on Group Therapy Radio.

Together, they meet at the intersection of underground intensity and melodic dark electronic refinement.

Emerging from years of working together in various bands and studios, UNTER STRØM was born from a shared obsession: pushing the boundaries of techno, melodic house, and industrial sonics into uncharted territory.  

The result is a cinematic, visceral sound that moves between brooding intensity and euphoric release, equal parts warehouse and widescreen.

• and show how many different places the project can go

Their new release is entitled Transmission 003: Live at the Breathing Records Showcase and is a nearly one hour and a half live set. John shares, "We wanted the set to present a broad landscape of the Unter Strøm sound and show how many different places the project can go.

After working on this music for over a year, it was exciting to finally experience it through a proper sound system and watch people respond to it in real time. What makes it even more exciting is that we still have a lot more in the tank that didn’t make it into the set.”

• so it felt like an important moment for us.

While Alex confides, "The Breathing Records showcase was the first time we played an Unter Strøm set in front of an audience, so it felt like an important moment for us.

We performed an hour and a half of entirely unreleased material, including ‘Fragment’ and ‘Stumbling’ before either song had been released, as well as several vocal tracks that we were still developing. It gave us a rare opportunity to test this body of work in a live environment and see which moments connected instinctively with the audience."
