The video for Chris Malinchak’s ‘No Secrets’, featuring Damon C. Scott, from his ‘Vilette’ EP is finally here.
The video is smooth, with a night time sheen. Pretty much the visual version of the track then!
The ‘Vilette’ EP is out now on French Express.

The almighty Steve Moore is back, the hardest working man in retro synth music is gearing up for the first proper single release (after the severely limited ‘The Visitor’ 12” and the ‘Fluid Window’ mini-album) of his duo project with Daniel O’Sullivan, Miracle.
The single, ‘Good Love’, opens with typically Moore vintage synths and a slightly Italo feel before powering into a majestic, SynthPop anthem. The mixture of ‘80’s European dance music with Depeche Mode style grandiose lyrical religious imagery. Like and orchestra of Italo, Moore and O’Sullivan crate a rousing yet melancholy sound with enough understanding of the dancefloor to see them as big contenders for HURTS, or at least a HURTS for the SynthWave crowd.

‘Good Love’ is released 27th November on House Anxiety Records.

Canadian Graph Gonzales has just released her new single ‘Eyes In The Dark’, with a reMix package to follow later in the month.
The track is a seriously impressive slice of retro ElectroPop. With a huge chorus that brings to mind power ballads of the ‘80’s coupled with pulsating analog synths, ‘Eyes In The Dark’ is the perfect meeting of ‘80’s songwriting and keys with modern dancefloor production, like putting some ‘80’s synth Soul through a sidechain. Graph herself really carries off the song well, especially in the big choruses where her voice is just the right type of powerful had has just the right tone for that ‘exciting-bit-of-a-movie’ feel. Recommended stuff!

The Swedish abstract ElectroPop duo of Josefin Lindh and Johan Tilli, otherwise known as Lissi Dancefloor Disaster (so named after Johan former cat) have just released a brand new EP, titled appropriately in LOLcat speak ‘As We Plz’.
The lead track is ‘Pop Musiiic’ a wailing electronic ode to the 3m30s Pop song and it’s promised ability to lift you from hopelessness. This is ElectroPop art it’s rawest. Raucous drums and screeching synths, a combination you’d expect to create a accompany, but somehow it all works together in a beautiful way. SynthPop with a Rock ‘N’ Roll swing, ‘Pop Musiiic’ is fun, Poppy and slightly chaotic and that’s what makes it great. One of the highlights of the EP, for me, is the track ‘Glowing Hearts’, which musically is more traditional SynthPop with an 8-bit twist but juxtaposes that with some pretty dark lyrical subject matters. Fellow Scandinavians Lo-Fi-Fnk contribute a reMix to the package, turning ‘Pop Musiiic’ into a quirky, left-field vocal House track.
