British singer/songwriter Ollie Wride announces his US solo debut at West Hollywood’s legendary Troubadour, having last sold out the venue as frontman with FM-84. He has penned some of synthwave’s most popular tracks including “Running in The Night”,  “Never Stop” and “Stranger Love”, while his live performances are known to be both exhilarating and captivating.

Following the success of these collaborations, it provided Wride the opportunity to further explore his melodic sensibilities, fusing elements of alternative rock with the nostalgic hallmarks of synth pop, culminating in the release of his debut solo album “Thanks In Advance”. The debut released on NewRetroWave Records is widely praised and charted on Billboard’s Top 10 Electronic charts as well as No.1 on iTunes’ Electronic chart.

With production completed on his highly anticipated second album and signing to M3 Recordings (Matt Pinfield, Matt Malpass and Matt Holmes), expect adrenaline-filled live band performances of songs from his debut and FM-84 back catalogue along with new upcoming releases.

In the four years that have gone by, something cold, alien and deadly has been frantically cutting through the fabric of reality.

As the night grows ever darker a brutal, systematic rhythm can be heard coming from a distance.
A sound of metallic heels colliding against black basalt stones, the hissing of a blade gleaming wildly through the shadows, a low, regular rumble that amplifies the vast darkness that surrounds us.

The sound of a monochrome nightmare.

The air around us feels heavier, everything feels faster, reality hits harder than ever before.

A sudden realization materializes, bringing forth a different point of view.
And in an attempt to reach for understanding, we start to listen very carefully.

We are being stalked.
We are being followed all too closely by something, someone we fail to identify.

And only now we start to see.

Listen to the new single “REPLAY” here: https://newretrowave.bandcamp.com/track/replay

“REPLAY is the second single taken from “CUT”, CONFRONTATIONAL’s fifth album scheduled for release in Spring 2023 via NRW Records.

The collection of eight tracks features exclusive collaborations with DOVIAK (composer, producer, sound engineer and multi-instrumentalist working for Johnny Marr), Antoni Maiovvi (electro-disco Producer, DJ, film composer and co-owner of Giallo Disco Records) and Adrien Grousset (songwriter, founder of HACRIDE, EREI CROSS and guitarist for CARPENTER BRUT), along with artwork curated by HauntLove, the creative director and designer known for his work with Arrow video (Giallo Essentials, Apprentice To Murder), Vinegar Syndrome (Dario Argento’s Trauma, Jeff Hathcock’s Night Ripper) and Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats.

A nocturnal portrait of the author by film-maker, writer and photographer Emilio Bellu adorns the pages of the release.

Though the young producer wears his influences on his sleeve, the record delivers an impressive, action-packed experience with a lot of youthful charm and passion.

Glitchy, funky and drenched in 80s’ corporate culture kitsch, ‘On the Telephone’ will have you dancing then drooling all over the living room floor as your friends call for an ambulance. Chasing down the sounds of that sweet after-work drink gone off the rails, ‘Preferred Stock’ feels like a dosed-up trip across the city night, lit by the ambulance warning lights flaring across the neon-paved landscape.

Tagged onto the release is the announcement of an upcoming EP and Album for the coming year, and we couldn’t be more chuffed to hear what Nmesh has in store for us.

Swordfall’s debut marks the return and a new beginning for the French producer formerly known as Yx, whose trilogy of releases caught our attention back in 2017. Nobody Knows Nobody Fears pushes Yx’s sound into radically new territory. Swordfall fuses elements of Darkwave and Symphonic extreme metal, coated in dark fantasy and cosmic horror.

Directed by Thomas Landrein and art director Jonas Genevaz, ‘Gone’ follows an armed resistance group through a number of apocalyptic views of the French capital being torn asunder by armed forces. Visceral and grandiose, Sierra’s tribute to France’s brilliant animators serves as yet another urgent reminder to dive back into the artist’s stellar back catalogue.

As for you European Synth-heads out there, be on the lookout for upcoming tour dates, as Sierra will be resuming the Leather Terror tour with Carpenter Brut next week for a series of European shows.

Tour date tickets are available here.

Check out Sierra on Spotify, Bandcamp and all major Streaming platforms.
