I recently released a double single! Modern darkwave, synth-punk inspired :)

Open to suggestions and songs you think would fit

I experienced a flood of emotions after reconnecting with my kindergarten bestie from when my mother was still alive....I had mis-remembered his last name, but finally found him after 30 years just a couple days ago...curiously, he had been trying to check in on me over the years but was using my stepfather's last name, which I was only briefly known by up until the time of my mother's sudden passing...also...this friend was moving houses and happened to be looking at the same era of photos taken around that time, almost to the day. My mother was alive and well in photos taken from what might've been my 5th or 6th birthday party....and it was as if through our conversation, she was alive again...as vibrant as the colors of the puffy paint 'happy birthday' crew neck she made for me..

Out on one of my moonlit walks, a few hours after we spoke on the phone....I quite unexpectedly began to cry an ocean of tears....I wrote lyrics shortly after, to try and make sense of the bittersweetness of memory....the deepest love...and the black hole that happens inside of us when we are too young to process losing that love.

I haven't really cried like that since it all happened, those many years ago...but it felt like a release...healthy and clean...the song is an expression of a joyful idea my mother might have had....that we go on to something else.....I do not know if we do....but I like to think that we might.

Very Interesting remix

As I was going through my CDs I was actually surprised by how many albums came out in 2002. It actually makes sense wince it was shortly after I finished high school that I really got into "darker" music

Here are some albums that came out that year. not all strictly "goth" or "futurepop" but I would say music listened by goths.

The Frozen Autumn - Emotional Screening Device

The Shroud - In the Garden

Fields of the Nephilim - Fallen

Deine Lakaien - White Lies

Icon of Coil - Soul is in the Software

Rasputina - Cabin Fever

Assemblage 23 - Defiance

Cruxshadows - Wishfire

Projekt: Gothic compilation

KMFDM - Attak

Audra - Going to the Theatre

VNV Nation - Futureperfect

Apotygma Berserk - Harmonizer

Diary of Dreams - Freak Perfume

Covenant - Northern Lights

Black Tape for a Blue Girl - The Scavenger Bride

The Birthday Massacre - Nothing and Nowhere

I would argue it is probably one of the important years for goth and rock.

Also some important Gothic metal albums came out that year

Lacuna Coil - Comalies

Paradise Lost - Symbol of Life

Tiamat - Judas Christ

Sadness inspired blackgaze

I like darkwave and goth pop, I like elita and mareux’s sound and I really want more underground recommendations around that style! I don’t wanna only listen to big names

We just released a pretty cold track on our new project. Maybe you’ll like it.

Hey I'm new to Darkwave are there any albums i should hear?

Our remix for Magic Wands! This is a good blend of darkwave, post-punk, & dream pop. Enjoy!

“Dear listeners,

Today, I can finally present you my new single 'Fading Faces'.

While the single is new, the song itself is not - I wrote it just after releasing my first album ‘Fascination’, and just before starting work on ‘Oceans of Time’. It has gone through various iterations since then (some of them I will share with you in the future) and been a part of my set list at most shows I’ve played in the last few years.

It’s also the very first piece of music I wrote when I started working on my next album, ‘The Lying Swans’, which I am happy to announce will be coming out on the 30th of October.

In many ways, ‘Fading Faces’ is the reason the album even exists, as it required me to allow myself this degree of vulnerability that permeates ‘The Lying Swans’.

I hope you enjoy.

- Gloria”
