New Entry: Soft Riot Airs "Windows To The Wild (Soft Riot's Sodium Glow Version)"


Glasgow-based synth pop/electronic/minimal/dark wave musician JJD aka Soft Riot has aired the Soft Riot's Sodium Glow Version" of his trackWindows To The Wild".

This digital 3-track single, out today (May 30) offers three versions of the track “Windows To The Wild” by Soft Riot, which was originally released in December 2021 on the compilation Upperwave Selections Vol. 1 on the Berlin-based label Miseria. Get it here.

This track has taken on an extended life of its own, with Athens-based EBM artist Qual (William Maybelline of Lebanon Hanover) picking it up to do his own stompy, aggressive rework followed by Glasgow-based dark electronic disco group Ubre Blanca (Giallo Disco) twisting the track into a propulsive, rhythmic dance number. Rounding out these two new mutations of "Windows To The Wild", Soft Riot himself has cooked up an alternate version of the track into a new, extended “Sodium Glow Version”. These three versions are gathered on this release as a digital 3-track EP to present to the world while a new album by Soft Riot starts to come together behind the scenes for release in 2023.
