ShiroKuro (WhiteBlack in Japanese) is an indie/pop-rock trio based in Liege (Belgium).

Formed by Nathanaël Paulis (vocals, electric violin), Louis Comblin (guitar, piano) and Matias Pollicino (drums), their musical style is full of contrast and superimposed catchy melodies, infectious rhythms and wistful colors, taking the audience to an inner and explosive trip. Proudly claiming their background from post-2010's indie bands (Foals, London Grammar, Two Door Cinema Club), critics highlight their "dramatic energy, versatility" (wiwibloggs), and their unique "ambience and songwriting" (Classic 21).

After releasing their first ever, self-produced EP In Sight in 2023, they have been invited at Berklee College of Music in Valencia (Spain) to record and prepare their future project to be released in 2026, whose main theme is doubt, its cause and consequences, and how to deal with it.

In the same year, they now jump a new step by participating in the Luxembourg Song Contest, the national selection to represent Luxembourg at the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 in Vienna (Austria).

Shirokuro is an electronic solo project by Anders Pedersen (Norway).

After gaining interest in obscure electronic music like minimal synth and industrial music, especially from the minimal wave label, he released his first album "Somewhere Still" in 2021, which he produced in GarageBand.

The year after he purchased analog equipment to help him produce music with the help of two synthesizers and a drum machine (Arturia Microbrute, Korg Minilogue, Roland TR-8S). These instruments were used to produce the album "過去現在未来" (Past, Present, Future), which was a much more experimental approach to electronic music than his previous album.

His third album "Solitude" from 2025, is his latest release and contains music that can be described as minimal synth / EBM. The album is based on cybersecurity and hardware. Read more on Last.fm.
