Biography

Army On The Dance Floor is a musical project led by Kourtney Klein, a multifaceted artist with a background in EBM/industrial, who has also worked as a classical percussionist, go-go dancer, and TV host. The project stands out for its synth-driven music, which combines electronic elements with powerful and clear vocals, creating a sound that is both familiar and modern.

The debut album, "Many Faces of War", released in 2014, features a synth-pop sound with influences reminiscent of artists like Erasure. The album's lyrics explore deep themes, such as the struggle to suppress emotions, sadness, jealousy, and regret, contrasting with the danceable and catchy nature of the music. Tracks like "Machine", "Juggernaut", "Lightning Strike", and "Five Million Stars" exemplify this duality, offering infectious melodies with a more introspective lyrical layer.

Klein, as the driving force behind Army On The Dance Floor, demonstrates skill in production, creating an expansive and polished sound. The artist has an independent approach, self-releasing her music, which reflects a desire for creative control and authenticity in a music scene often dominated by predefined trends. The project fits into the universe of electronic music, with strong roots in synth-pop and influences from other electronic genres.
