Bringing a dark, early 80’s SynthPop, vibe with him comes Brian Repetto A.K.A. The Dark Esquire. Ex-of Garage-Pop band Dumbwaiters, Brian decided to go it alone and experiment with his love of SynthPop and the New Romantics culminating in his début release, for THISISNOTANEXIT records, ‘Situation’

If you listen to the 7” version you have hear him wearing his influences on his sleeve, it’s a perfect blend of Dance-Pop with a New Wave bassline and ominous chords reminiscent of the earlier, more experimental, pioneers of SynthPop.

reMixes are supplied by Liquid Vega who turn in a deep, downtempo, almost Trip-Hop take on the track and Night Plane with their minimal synth slow-jam.
