ULTRA SUNN

w/

CONFINES


ULTRA SUNN is a contemporary EBM/Coldwave/New Beat band from Brussels, Belgium, formed in late 2019 by frontman and multi-instrumentalist Sam Huge and keyboardist/producer Gaelle Souflet.

In 2023, they were joined on stage by keyboardist and percussionist Alexis Andrigo. ULTRA SUNN expresses a desire for modernity through its themes, fresh approach to sounds and collaborations (Kontravoid, Kris Baha, Curses, Sarin) while being the heirs of the famous Sound Of Belgium and classical EBM. ULTRA SUNN regularly played alongside Front 242, Nitzer Ebb, DAF or A Split Second.

In 2020 with the release of their hit "Keep Your Eyes Peeled," the duo gained widespread recognition, performing concerts all around the world, from Brussels to Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Calgary, Sao Paulo, Mexico, Bogota, Berlin, London, and many more.

The band already released 3 EPs called ‘Night is Mine’, ‘Body Electric’ and 'K*ll Your Idols’, all borrowing from their activities in classical arts and fashion shows, their New Beat and EBM

inspirations and their desire to create dancing and luminous hymns about self improvement, gender equality, fight against anxiety. Always with an inclusive, powerful and positive spirit.

In 2023, ULTRA SUNN signed a worldwide, multi-album deal with Canadian-based label Artoffact Records then embarked on a tour in Latin America, (Mexico, Medellin, Bogota, Lima, Santiago,

and Sao Paulo).

The duo annonces their first full LP for April 2024 as well as two USA tours for Spring and Fall 2024.

The first tour will include the Sick New World Festival in Las Vegas then Los Angeles, the band will also play up the west coast to end in Vancouver, Canada.

The second tour will start from New York, go down the east coast to Florida then pass through Louisiana, Texas, Tennessee among other places, and end in Chicago.

ULTRA SUNN is already rescheduled across Europe, and will stop at the Orangerie, Botanique in Brussels, in their home town to celebrate the release of ‘US’, their long-awaited first full album.


The seed for CONFINES started with the union between techno and industrial, fog-filled noir nights in NYC clubs and the desire to expand away from the worlds of metal, punk, and hardcore while still applying that aesthetic and ethic. CONFINES explores the dimly-lit corners of the dancefloor with fist-clenching beats, gut-rumbling bass kicks and haunting vocals that coalesce into its own unique flavor.

While names like Einstürzende Neubauten and SWANS come to mind when discussing the basis for CONFINES– whether field recordings, sounds from the worksite, metal on metal or other industrialisms– the project thrives on diversity. With a basis in Latin music from the golden era ruled by Fania, CONFINES also takes influence from the NYC's crucial Paradise Garage scene, the immortal Larry Levan and others. It’s this baseline understanding that CONFINES applies to That Total Age-era Nitzer Ebb, early Ministry and even later influences like Silent Servant and Ancient Methods, the result being an approach that is equally crushing on the dancefloor or on your headphones.
