WL//WH Weekly Post-Punk // Darkwave // Dark Synth Tips

• Mexican New Wave/Post-Punk solo project based in Oaxaca, Vacíos Cuerpos “Entre Sombras” single
  

Scraping the lines of 80s moody post-punk and brooding goth-laced darkwave nostalgia, another electrifying highly danceable single from the Mexican artist, unleashed by relentless punchy snare beats, along with droning bottom undulations, skittering through a pulsing blanket of forlorn bass wails, and edgy flashing icy synth drama, to swirl desperately over depressed, nervous vocals, lost and struggling to exist amid blinding flashbacks.

• Jersey City, NJ goth /darkwave /post-punk duo blxckflamingo “Brujeria” off 3-track debut EP
  

Chilly and sharp-edged Goth-tinged Darkwave debut from the New Jersey two-piece delivered with a sinister, macabre, gripping swagger. Three tracks that blaze with a full-hearted overflowing of urgency and intensity through a rush of driving drum machines, thumping basslines, ethereal reverb-drenched shoegaze textures and resonantly epic piercing pain-fueled riffs, heightened by cold slightly growling baritone broods, burning with baleful desire and untamed passion.

• German Synthpop Electro project by S. Eicken and D. Wunder, aka Frau Aicon & Das Wunder “Side By Side” single
  

German duo cast catchy and dancing ghostly synth-pop emotions through rolling and buzzing murky rhythms throbbing against a bright dazzling canopy of swirling synth melancholia, conjuring ethereal haunting, melancholic moods atop wistful and euphoric vocals dreamily longing with vibrant radiations and gloomy spoken words to give hope to others who feel alone and scared at the state of the world.
