Weekly Post-Punk / Darkwave / Dark Synth Tips #11  

Irma Vep (Olivier Assayas, 1996)

PICKS OF THE WEEK:

  • Mexican Minimal Synth / Minimal Wave / Cold Wave project of Angel Ackermann, STOCKHAUSSEN “Feel your body” ϟ▲ new single from the upcoming album.

Mexican minimal synth mastermind preview another track from his upcoming album with a hazily sinister instrumental cut that shakes and grips, seduces and shivers, drawing you deep into beguiling, winding obscure synth melodies and brazenly dynamic danceable rhythms, perfectly embodying the heartfelt energy and jagged immediacy from the pioneers of the past.

  • Houston, TX darkwave/synthwave duo of Manuel Lozano & Sky Lesco, Tearful Moon “Bar In Barcelona” first single off the upcoming album, “Under the Red Veil”, soon to be released on both vinyl and CD via Young & Cold Records
 
Houston‘s darkwave duo captivate right away with radiating sinister synth swells expand through the rhythmic bass undertow, lined in wicked dance beats and signature bewitching vocal allure, building toxic moody atmospherics lost in lusty confession. 
  • Ukrainian post-punk / coldwave outfit from Kyiv, ICY MEN “Тусклый свет (Low light)” title track from the forthcoming sophomore album due out April 3, 2020 on Cold Transmission Music

Ukrainian duet keep on approaching to their second LP with their unmistakable refined and murky atmospheric alchemy of dead-eyed coldwave and morose post-punk, pervaded by a gripping and cloaking brood, at the same time unsettlingly romantic and achingly melancholic, whilst forlorn, mysterious vocals embed a foreboding gothic tension.
