The Piston Damp story so far The band was formed in 2000, but remained a hobby project for 20 years until Jonas wrote the song SOMETHING IN ME in 2020. This became their first single and was remixed by several international acts like THE ANIX, PEGBOARD NERDS and TECHNOMANCER (the latter becoming somewhat of a DJ-hit). 2021 saw the release of the single LOOSE ENDS which included the B-side DON’T. In April the highly anticipated single RUNAWAY was released, with remixes from bands like MESH, DIE KRUPPS and SUBSTAAT. All the singles and many of the remixes have received heavy rotation on several radio stations and internet programs, such as Artefaktor Radio, Synthtopia, White Lion Radio and more… Since the release of SOMETHING IN ME in October, both fans and media have been craving a full-length album, and we’re proud to say that now it’s here. It includes all three singles, now in their full album versions, along with 10 more tracks. The album has been produced by the band themselves and mixed with their good friend Magne Johansen. It was mastered for digital platforms by Ole-Espen Kristiansen, and for CD and vinyl by the legendary Morten Lund. Stephan Groth (APOPTYGMA BERZERK) contributes on vocoder on one of the songs.
