about

“Human Drama” out now!

The new EP sees Mvrijo and Roland M. pushing their well established lush atmospherics and vocal melodies to new heights, fusing dreamy synth / nu wave and melancholic synthwave, the new release has been an intense labor of love and inspiration, the perfect antidote to the madness of the modern world in chaos. The perfect environment for trying to deconstruct the full meaning of lifes chaos - the human drama of existence.

Coming off the success of the 2021 Otherworld EP, the five tracks on Human Drama feel deeper, more fully realized than ever - a sharp laser-focus on their own brand of ethereal, beat driven synthpop, with the ghosts of previous post punk - dreampop influence never lurking too far away.

“Break The Silence” started the singles/video rolling in Nov 2022, leading up to “Thin Lines” in September 2023, then pulling everything together for the full EP in October, along with new tracks “Eyes of The World”, “Never Fade”, and “Destiny Unknown”.

Many of the songs had their genesis as soundscapes with inspiration from old 80s synths in Roland's collection, written quickly in moments of clarity, then passed onto Mvrijo and ruminated over until a solid structure appeared- and definitely not overthought, to keep the initial vibe and emotion intact and pure.

With love and respect - enjoy!
