After a particularly prolific 2021, Acryl Madness has yet to show any signs of slowing down. Released last Friday, Before Neon 2 compiles 8 more reworked versions of older tracks released prior to the artist’s signing to Neon Retro Records.

Before Neon 2 by Acryl Madness

It’s mean, it’s retro and the songs haven’t aged one bit. Though compilations often come with associations of haphazard releases, “Before Neon 2” is every bit as worth listening to than any AM full-length release.

Acryl Madness ‘Before Neon 2’ is out now on Bandcamp and Spotify.

Less than a year since the collaborative album with Starfounder, the madness has returned to haunt and thrill whoever dares cross paths with it.

RYU dives further down the Cyberpunk rabbit hole all the while adding some softer sound textures and ambiences to a blaring destructive sound.

Songs like ‘Ghosts of New-Tokyo’ and ‘Kill_em_all’ sees the artist push the east-Asian influences one notch further all the while keeping energy levels to an all-time high. Neophytes best be warned: it gets loud.

Acryl Madness ‘RYU’ is out now on Bandcamp and Spotify.

Favorite Tracks : Kill_em_all, City Of the Damned

Lips \ Steel is draped in apocalyptic sci-fi vibes, with Starfounder most often laying out the ambience to the sonic scene through which Acryl Madness wreaks pure dark synth havoc.

With a few solo tracks by each producer, a few collaboration tracks and a couple of remixes of one another’s tracks, the two artists have managed to lay down a solid, coherent set of tracks whilst freely exploring the different collaborative configurations.

With Bandcamp Fridays gaining bigger traction every month and most countries growing rife with promising hopes of live concerts making a comeback, it seems like this fruitful month is but a taste of the glorious rejuvenated summer months to come. This past month saw the return of Retrowave titans Mitch Murder and Timecop1983, along with the long-awaited release of Makeup and Vanity’s ‘Heart of Batman’ Soundtrack on Streaming platforms. We hope you’ll excuse the slight delay for this Retro Recap; April 30th was a particularly fruitful Friday for Bandcamp and the Retro Scene.

Russian producer Acryl Madness has reemerged from the darkness with his latest violent opus Kaidan, a tale of horror and destruction destined to possess and torment whoever is destined to cross its path. Fans of darksynth ultraviolence, your search for your next sadistic fix will no doubt be met with sweet shivers of bloodlust as you tune into this bad boy. Brittle spirits beware, the Yokai are roaming free and out for blood.

Acryl Madness’ Kaidan is available via Bandcamp and Spotify via Neon Retro Records.
