Memory keeper. Mostly music and movies, plus some series and video games. Obscure darkness meets pop culture glow.
These guys have one more album besides the one they credit together with Adam Tristar. It’s just as good with beautiful and soft darkwave melodies. I find this album emotionally rich and to go under my skin like good goth music does. Beautiful cover art, too.
I wrote previously about Adam Tristar after I first saw him live. I’ve been going back to his music regularly and since then I’ve realized that his first record is probably my favorite, so this is a nod to that. Darkwave electronic goth stuff.
Kinda dark wave, goth vibes but also to dance to. There are some great tunes in here, and some bedroom B-sides. Schall & Rauch is a favorite, it’s definitely one for the goth disco dancefloor.
I’m hesitant and cautious to jump to conclusions, but based on the number of albums being released in the genre and the general product quality of these, is it possible that the goth scene is making a comeback? I’m very excited for some stuff that I hear nowadays and it’s really a treat how often I get to hear good new music.
I saw Adam Tristar on a goth club night headlining after like ten other concerts. It was a duo performing live and they stood out so much from the others, like it would be a professional act after a list of DIY bedroom bands. Well, that’s probably a pretty good approximation of what happened.
The music is all along the goth aesthetics with electronic coldwave synths. Hits close to my heart.
It’s so strange that I haven’t made note of Minuit Machine before considering how much I listen to their records recently. It’s a constant item in my cyberpunk playlists. It’s an amazing blend of electro and goth moods resulting in this beautiful dark wave atmosphere that I just strive in.
This album is so not interesting. Just wanted to make a note here: I don’t feel this to be a goth album at all, it’s way more of a new wave (sometimes future pop) dressed as goth. Probably that’s the very reason I don’t like it. Under this darkwave look I don’t feel any real content and value. There’s also this trend of new goth music incorporating a heavy influence from synthwave. Sometimes I like it, in this case I don’t. I compare this record to everything by Cigarettes After Sex. *smirk
Some people are haunted, and some of them write great music like this. Such authentic goth tunes in 2016.
Shoegazing synthwave thing.
