How about a brand new album from Detroit’s very own Synth hero? You’ve heard that right, Phaserland is back in town and back in business with his 5th full-length record. Heart Plaza sees Phaserland dive a few feet further into Vaporwave-esque vibes, providing the soundtrack to the echoing halls of a shopping mall lulling itself with the bittersweet sounds of eighties synth music.

The whole record carries a distinct haunting yet soothing quality through its roomy, echoing reverb trails, orgasmic sax solos and bluesy midnight moods, adding up to what may well be Phaserland’s most cohesive and strongest effort to date. Whether you’re looking for a bit of synthpop melancholia or a bit of me-time under a cool blue moon, ‘Heart Plaza’ is the place for you.

Favorite Tracks : Space Glide, Another Night, Midnight Jazz

Phaserland ‘Heart Plaza’ is out now via Das Record on Bandcamp and Spotify

London’s Duett has got you covered with their new record ‘Leisure’, an effervescent output of good vibes delivered with a vapory veneer. On what may be his most accomplished record to date, Ben Macklin delivers a funky, chilled set of ambiences you’ll want to bask in for hours on end. The Chillwave and Mallsoft touches add a beautiful immersive feel to the songs whilst also providing a nice sense of flow and context to the whole listening experience.

 

Simply put, Leisure bears the unmistakable mark of an artist for whom the eighties aesthetic is a preferred sonic palette rather than a crutch.

Duett’s ‘Leisure’ is out now on bandcamp and other streaming platforms.

With all of its frantic twists and turns, History has not been keeping still lately and we certainly can’t blame you for losing track of this years’ freshest releases. Although January is traditionally a rather quiet month for music, this past month proved to be a refreshing exception to the rule and we at NRW decided to compile our favourite releases from the past month.
