Pop music

Spells, synths, and sonic transformation: Elly Kace's The Seventh Gate weaves strings, sound healing instruments, and vocal layering into intimate conversations with the beloved dead — songs cast as spells upon the spaces that resist light. Kindness Inc. conjures an electro folk love that betrays death itself, while Rinsse explores isolation and bewilderment through psychedelic pop meets industrial cyberpunk. Michael Wenas delivers a retro-futuristic fallout of shimmering synths and indie-rock grit, and peepsie closes it out with danceable synth madness about being scared you've finally fallen in love.
