Faderhead (Sami Mark Yahya) with Electra Black / Shaolyn from Hamburg, Germany

(Via Wikipedia)
Sami Mark Yahya, professionally known by his stage name Faderhead is a German electronic music producer from Hamburg, Germany. His music is usually described as EBM, Synthpop or Futurepop.



Shaolyn

After leaving the U.S. as a “political refugee” when George W. Bush was re-elected in 2005, Shaolyn (otherwise known as Lynne Welton) came to the birthplace of hard electronic music: Germany.

“I chose to learn German in school, when everyone else learned Spanish and I have always loved bands like DAF. I have also always been politically active in California, so when Bush got re-elected I could not bear to live in that country anymore. So I literally left everything behind and came to Hamburg with nothing but 2 suitcases. At first it was very, very hard, because I had nowhere to stay and no job, but I coped and made it – and now I can’t imagine living anywhere else!”

Shaolyn successfully blends hard EBM basslines with techno, hardstyle and a sprinkle of powernoise to create a unique mix that is clearly a step ahead of the female-fronted electro competition.

“I love dancing and that’s why I make music that you can dance to. If it’s bouncy and powerful, nothing will keep me from getting onto the dancefloor – and my tunes are a reflection of that spirit …” says the young woman with a smirk.

Shaolyn really kicks the dancefloor’s ass!

Burn All Night (feat. Electra Black)
by Faderhead, Electra Black




Just in time for the beginning of the year - a time when most musicians are recovering from Christmas feasting and New Year's hangovers - Faderhead releases his new single "Burn All Night".

This driving futurepop song is a collaboration with scene newcomer Electra Black, whose airy trance-style vocals make the track very recognizeable in an ocean of songs with low male voices..

BURN ALL NIGHT

Of all the stories in the world
I know that mine is never heard
I want to move in different ways
Wish I would move and never stay
Move and never stay

I like to burn all night
Cause every day
Is dead and grey
I like to burn all night
Cause I just can't be
Nothing every day

Of all the ways to heal my heart
I start to blossom after dark
I burn to break out of my cage
And I don't think of yesterday
Think of yesterday

released January 1, 2024

Written, recorded, produced, mixed and mastered by Faderhead.

Guest vocals by Electra Black

Additional production by Electra Black and Michael Gillian

Breathe Again
by Faderhead





I thought I want to wake alone
I thought my heart had turned to stone some more
Somebody told me nothing fills this hole
This hole
Another day of words unsaid
Another story in your head again
Somebody told you nothing heals this pain
This pain

My soul's under water
Heart's full of struggles
All and others
Will we end this
Souls under water
Hearts full of struggles
Now
How to breathe again?

You thought you broke your spirit down
You thought there's nothing to be found no more
Somebody told you nothing stays around
Around
Another day of empty stares
Another way your silence fills the air
Somebody told you nothing heals despair
despair

The Hell We Need
by Faderhead






"The Hell We Need" is a song about accepting the fact that life won't always be good and that happiness is not a permanently attainable state. In a nutshell: hell is needed for happiness.
lyrics
THE HELL WE NEED


You seem happily miserable today
From these regrets that you earned
All the memories kept
Because the future hurts

The times we're brave
The love that came
The slightest ray
That splits the grey now

We all need some hell in our lives
Makes us appreciate the light

You seem happily miserable today
From the pain you deserve
Won’t erase the past
Because the future hurts

Times we're brave
Hell in our lives
Love that came
Hell in our lives
Slightest ray
Hell in our lives
Splits the grey now

released February 1, 2024

Written, produced, recorded, mixed and mastered by Faderhead.

Die For This (feat. Neuroticfish)
by Faderhead




If we knew how to live
We would not die for this
If we knew how to live
We wouldn't die for this

In the light of day
We chase shadows
Seeking treasures in the quicksand
In the rush of time
We forget to breathe
Changing these thoughts unclear

In the depth of souls
Lights burning slow
As the world just keeps on turning
In every thought a chance
Always hard to see
Changing these thoughts unclear

Every year a lesson learned,
In every fire dreams are burned.

released May 1, 2024

Souls Burned Black
by Faderhead


Break down
Bury that
Skeleton bodybag
Spread the lie of your right
To decide for me

We are the tainted saints
We got our souls burned black

Death cult
Follow that
Bold-faced amnesiac
Spread the lie of your right
To decide for me

released June 1, 2024


Emotional Baggage
by Faderhead


Sometimes our hearts have to be broken
So love can come in through the cracks
I shovel coke into a heart that never fills
And wish you all the love I never had

You ghost whore
Stop fucking with me
You ghost whore
Take your emotional baggage and leave

We're always looking for the answer
But never look inside ourselves
And winning never feels like winning anymore
Cause I can never ask for help

released July 1, 2024


The Endless Descent
by Faderhead


"The Endless Descent" was inspired by a podcast by physicist Sabine Hossenfelder who talked about time dilation near the powerful forces of a black hole. Each line refers to a physics phenomenon and also mirrors the emotional turmoil of a failing relationship.
lyrics
Gravity's grip slows time to a crawl
On the brink, about to fall
Each second stretches beyond all law
All law
Moments of breaking turn to endless years
Descent eternal, when viewed from here
Red shifted, stretched to the limit
Falling forever

We're in the endless descent
Because we're broken and bent
We want to stop but we can't
We're going down down down

Star-torn bodies, we're pulled apart
Tidal forces tear at our hearts
Past the point of no return, we start
We start
Feel the crushing weight of regret
As time and space begin to break
Can't escape this monster low
Singularity

Summer Rain
by Faderhead





We walk away
We walk away
In the summer rain

This love decays
This love decays
In the summer rain

The pain remains
And we leave no trace

We fade away
We fade away
In the summer rain
