Dero Goi, the former frontman of Neue Deutsche Härte pioneers OOMPH!, who is releasing his debut album, 1984, on 29 November via Dependent, released a new single/video entitled "Saturday".
Dero Goi comments: "I wrote 'Saturday' as an ironic answer to all the hate and malice that were directed towards me after I had publicly confessed that I believe in Jesus Christ. I have also used original quotes from so called 'haters' on the internet for the lyrics. I was determined to answer with a clear statement of love to all that negativity, which is why I repeatedly reply by stating 'I still love you!' or 'I'll always love you!' to all the slander. I also found it important to counter the vile energy of the 'haters' in a lively and cheerful manner. The video clip for this song is describing some kind of sham trial in which I stand as the pre-condemned accused. Yet as the story unfolds, the tide is turning. Take a look!"
1984 demonstrates that Dero Goi is back with a bang, delivering a massive statement of intent in the shape of an ambitious double album full to the brim with synth hits throughout its 23 songs (an abridged version is also being made available). A fascinating fusion of synth-wave, EBM and retro sounds with plenty of contemporary electronic elements, it even delivers a dose of his former life as a rock and metal musician. Always recognised as an outstanding songwriter, Dero Goi has honed his craft to an even sharper edge on this substantial new collection.

"It's a dark album. According to me, it's the darkest yet in our discography. It's also very suggestive, very introverted, less direct, and might be less friendly..." - Daniel Moilanen

"We only make an album when we feel genuinely inspired. You can't just say, "OK, I'm going to record a new album", because without inspiration, it would be boring." - Gregor Mackintosh
