#ListenNOW! ‘SIX’ by Shiny Lake

The dark synthwave duo from Seattle, called Shiny Lake, creates an enchanting and seductively dark atmosphere with their new release ‘SIX’. Gloomy synthwave sounds blend with ethereal vocals to create a kind of vintage wave world that will delight genre lovers. ‘SIX’ conveys the dark despair of an individual struggling with inner battles, isolation, and pain. It expresses a strong desire for liberation and solace. The search for redemption is palpable and emphasizes the deep longing for inner peace. Post-punk, with a slight gothic touch, emphasizes the gloomy mood, which nevertheless manages to radiate, in a dark and gloomy way. Shiny Lake is definitely on the right track and, after their debut, presents another work worth listening to.

As the year draws to a close, we would like to present a few highlights, one of which is certainly the album ‘Dreaming of Daniel’ by Jerry Fish feat. MayKay, which is intended to commemorate the great Daniel Johnston (‘Hi, How Are You‘ is considered his most successful album and a classic of the American indie scene). The spirit of Daniel continues to live on and culminates in an album with 13 songs. ‘Ain't No Woman Gonna Make a George Jones Outta Me’ is just one of the songs that make this tribute album a gem.

#DanceNOW! Double Triangle, Carlos Ucedda - "I adore you (Double Triangle Remix)"

If the song sounds familiar to you now, we have already presented Carlos Ucedda and ‘I adore you’ once before; back then, the song was still very 80s (greetings to Luke Tangerine at this point). Together with Double Triangle, they take a step further into the 90s. You could almost say: ‘I adore you’ has arrived in the golden era of techno. The remix shows Double Triangle in top form, with good progression that keeps up the tension and simultaneously proves that, together with Carlos Ucedda, they can also capture the 90s flair magnificently and present it in the style of the 2000s. Great Remix of a fantastic Song by the end of the year!

OUTNOW! Dichtboi - "Wer bin ich¿"

"Wer bin ich¿" zeigt eine tiefe Identitätskrise und Sinnsuche des Menschen. Dichtboi symbolisiert den verzweifelten Versuch, der Realität durch Illusionen zu entfliehen. Der Text erinnert daran, dass wahrer Mut darin besteht, sich den Herausforderungen des Lebens zu stellen und Erfüllung innerhalb der realen Grenzen zu suchen, oder es wird zur Flucht in eine andere Welt, die leider oft nur einen Ausweg kennt. Und so bleibt am Ende der Beginn einer neuen Ebene der Existenz. Nachdenkliches von Dichtboi zum Jahresende.
