Last Friday we updated our Post Punk / Shoegaze / Post Rock inc Dark/Cold/Synth Wave Motorik & Kosmisiche Musik playlist and it all kicks off with a sparkling new track ‘La Poussière’ from Automelodi, the Montreal synthwave duo led by Xavier Paradis whose long awaited new album, Mirages au futur verre-brisé is out next month on Holodeck. Following that is the slow burning debut single ‘Hazy Strobes’ from the French darkwave & synthpop act Fragrance, the collaboration between Matthieu Roche, and Hélène de Thoury from Hante and Minuit Machine. Their debut album Now That I’m Real is out next month on Synth Religion next week. The other big news in synth based music is the new single from Tamaryn ‘Angels of Sweat’ off her forthcoming album Dreaming the Dark out March 22 on Dero Arcade and a new track ‘Start A Fire’ from no nonsense Australian electro post punk artist Goo Munday whose new album 9 Lives is set for release on March 15th on Negative Gain.
