“The new single from NYC Snythpop duo The Mystic Underground.”
Riding the new wave underground: The Mystic Underground's Drowning is equal parts menacing and enticing — a dark synthpop plea against emotional imprisonment that's "life set to a dance beat." SOFT RIOT's Crux channels the early '80s DIY synth spirit through minimalist darkwave, EBM, and mild psychedelia with a strategic balance of space and rhythm. Melbourne's Modern Ideas crafts garage synthpop where "plastic dreams, electric romance, and machines hum with human desire." Song for a Gorgeous Blonde adds heavily orchestrated trepidation peering into distant fortunes, while Montreal's Glass Dolls brings bedroom pop/post-punk meditations on love and grief.
