Berlin-based outfit Diagram announce new album Short Circuit Control and share the first single Dub Boy. With Short Circuit Control, Diagram re-emerges with a refined yet unpredictable sound, a testament to resilience, collaboration, and the endless possibilities of analogue synthesis. The album is released April 18 2025 on P.U.G Records.

Built on mechanical rhythms and eerie textures, Short Circuit Control plays with tension and release, its analogue pulse imbued with a restless, human energy. There’s a hypnotic, almost ritualistic quality to the music, where modular synths hum and crackle, beats loop and fracture, and melodies emerge like ghostly transmissions from some distant, flickering signal. The result is an album that feels both controlled and unpredictablemoody, immersive, and always teetering on the edge of something unknown.

What began as a bedroom project by Hkon Aalsteinsson (The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Third Sound) culminated in the debut album Transmission Response (2019, Fuzz Club), a raw and exploratory work that set the foundation for what was to come. When Fred Sunesen joined, Diagram evolved into a live act, carving out a space for itself in Berlins underground music scene.
