Gemma Cullingford Drops "New Day (Rodney Cromwell Daydreamer Remix)


UK electronic/dark disco artist Gemma Cullingford (one half of electronic post-punk duo Sink Ya Teeth) has dropped the Rodney Cromwell Daydreamer Remix of her latest single "New Day".

The original version of the song is taken from her sophomore album 'Tongue Tied' set to be released on September 2. Get it here.

Rodney Cromwell has given the track an ethereal dreampop reinterpretation, using vintage ARP synths, melodica and a DR55 drum machine. 

"As soon as I heard the track I loved it and knew the vocal would lean really to a dreampop reinterpretation. I busted out my faithful Boss DR-55 drum machine, stuck some chorus on the bass and re-imagined the song as something from New Order's 'Movement' had Gillian been on lead vocals and Robin Guthrie had been on guitar. And I think it's lo-fi enough as well to still be undeniably Rodney Cromwell"

NIGHT TERRORS Airs New Single/Video "The Red Room"


German darkwave/post punk/synthwave artist NIGHT TERRORS has aired the video for his new single "The Red Room".

The song is taken from his upcoming EP 'Death Pop From The Black Lodge', set to be released on August 26 through isolation Records. Pre-order your copy here.

With Death Pop from The Black Lodge, Night Terrors opens the gates that conceal the irreversible void: a world of sadness, a place without hope. Revealing the harsh truth that some stories end well while others do not, Night Terrors pleads to face the inevitable: All will end eventually.

Influenced by Grave Wave and Synth Pop contemporaries, Death Pop from The Black Lodge bears a complex structure of penetrating drums and gut-wrenching bass lines. Matched to create a foundation for multiple layers of gloomy synths, Night Terrors does not shy away from delivering a melodic, at times even morbidly playful, contrast. Enticing the listener further into the void, a distinctive, cold and merciless voice unleashes lyrics that put a finger into the endlessly suppurating wound that is blind optimism.

For fans of Cold Cave, Kontravoid, The Soft Moon and Boy Harsher.
