Today’s video of the day is Borghesia – “400” released in 1991.
Borghesia is a Slovenian electronic and EBM band formed in 1982 in Ljubljana, then part of Yugoslavia. They pushed boundaries with provocative imagery and themes. Their sound mixed electronic beats with dark, rebellious energy. The song "400" appears on their 1991 album Dreamers in Colour. This track blends heavy synths, driving rhythms, and politically charged lyrics. The album marked a shift towards a more polished sound while keeping their raw intensity.
The video for "400" was directed by Neven Korda. It became a cult classic with its striking visuals and underground aesthetic. Borghesia often used video art to amplify their message, and this release was no exception. Before Dreamers in Colour, the band released albums like Ogolelo Mesto and No Hope, No Fear. These records had a harsher, more industrial sound. By 1991, their music had evolved, incorporating more structured melodies and refined production. However, they never lost their political edge.
Borghesia disbanded in 1995 but returned in 2009. Their later albums, like And Man Created God, continued their tradition of bold themes and electronic experimentation. The song "400" stands as a defining moment in Borghesia’s catalog. It captures their evolution while staying true to their roots. Fans of EBM and electronic music still celebrate this track today.
