After 'Marcha' on Impulse Recordings in May, Dianarp now delivers a first for Noise In Harmony, with 'The Entanglement'. It is a record built around harmonic shifts, not drum-led momentum. The percussion is thick, but the true movement happens in the chords, which push forward across the duration of the track, finding release when they finally lock into place.

Sonically the record is dense and full-on, with little give underneath the peaks. That is not to say it is harsh. The top end is temperate, smoothed over, so the force of the track comes from weight rather than abrasion. As with much of Dianarp's catalogue, it lives in the space between elegance and drive.

The release arrives at a busy time for both artist and label. For Noise In Harmony it is the 14th of 2026 so far, while for Dianarp it is a first for the outlet and the latest step in a steady run of form that has seen releases on Superordinate Music, AH Digital and One Of A Kind over the past year.
