Ignea Premiere New Single & Music Video "Harmony Manufactured" - Britta Görtz Of Hiraes Guests

Ukrainian progressive metal outfit Ignea have joined forces with Britta Görtz of Hiraes for their freshly released single, “Harmony Manufactured.” The track arrives alongside a music video directed by Lame Perfect, just ahead of tomorrow's (October 23rd) release of Ignea’s new album, “Monumental,” via Napalm Records.

Ignea vocalist Helle Bohdanova shared the following thoughts on the song and its special guest:

“The song ‘Harmony Manufactured‘ is a tribute to industrial design, the Bauhaus school, and the birth of technical aesthetics, celebrating objects in which function and beauty coexist perfectly. The Bauhaus believed in the unity of art, craft, and technology, and that well-made things shouldn’t be a privilege but part of everyday life. In this song, the mechanical intensity is combined with a melody that reflects the elegance of everyday products emerging from the production line: stylish, timeless, and capable of evoking nostalgia, like a tubular-steel chair that has outlived three generations of owners.

In the video, though, it is the human body that is treated as the peak of design. After all, it is humans who carry the most beauty and enduring memory. We’re extremely grateful to have Britta as a guest on ‘Harmony Manufactured.’ Her voice is the technical aesthetics of extreme vocals, and she has elevated this song enormously. I hope we’ll be able to perform it live together someday.”

Görtz also offered her perspective:

”Helle and I have a lot of mutual respect and appreciation for each other, so joining forces on a song felt like a very natural thing to do. I love the strong artistic vision that she and Ignea brought to ‘Harmony Manufactured,’ especially the way they explore the themes of nostalgia and Bauhaus through their music. It’s always inspiring to work with artists who have such a clear creative identity, and it was a pleasure to become part of their musical world for this song. Having Helle come all the way from Ukraine to my hometown Hannover for the video shoot made the whole experience even more special!”
