Enzo Kreft (Mechelen, BE) has been around for a while: in the early 1980s he released two obscure but widely acclaimed minimal synth cassettes, “Me Is!” (1983) and “Cicatrice” (1984). Kreft represents a dark electronic, but danceable and atmospheric sound with socially critical, rebellious lyrics. In 2010 his music was revived on “Underground Belgian Wave Vol.2” from Walhalla Records and in 2016 “Dark Matter”, a compilation LP with his “old” songs was released on the same label. From that year on everything has accelerated. Enzo Kreft releases a number of not unnoticed new albums ("Turning Point" in 2016, "Wasteland" in 2017, "Control" in 2019, "Different World" in 2021 and “Shelter” in 2023) and he performs live on several stages with intense, energetic shows and breathtaking visuals that accompany his dark electrowave. At the end of 2023, the compilation vinyl album "XL" was released, celebrating 40 years of Enzo Kreft. In 2025 Kreft releases a highly topical new album, "Dictator”.
