Who is Kris Baha?\u00a0<\/strong>The Italian-Armenian born Kris Baha has been making music for most of his life, moving between electronic production, live performances and DJ sets.

It’s an accessible album that spans the post-punk and EBM worlds and could be a great first step into the world of electronic music if you’re just starting out.<\/p>\n

Why should you listen?\u00a0<\/strong>Even if the latest record is acessible Kris Baha has built his following in european underground club culture. If you’re a Leeds based person then Kris Baha is the rare artist who could play Wire as easily as Brudenell Social Club.<\/p>\n
