Pressrelease: 

Cutting Free From the Past 

Eckotrigger return with "Imposter," a dark and emotionally charged new single about confronting the past, emotional relapse and the search for inner peace. In the band's own words, the track is "about trying to cut free from the past as we strive towards our own peace." And that struggle runs deep throughout the song. 

Opening with the stark words "I lay awake / In a sense of doom," "Imposter" takes us into a world of emotional uncertainty, memories and changing dreams. The recurring refrain "My emotional state / Takes me back to places"captures the feeling of being pulled back into experiences we thought we had escaped. But "Imposter" is ultimately about moving forward. 

The lyrics explore the uneasy process of letting go of people, memories, emotions and perhaps even former versions of ourselves. "Nothing stays the same" becomes the song's powerful recurring message: a simple truth that can be both painful and liberating. 

With its introspective lyrical themes and atmospheric electronic edge, "Imposter" finds Eckotrigger balancing darkness and vulnerability with a sense of forward motion. 

A song about looking back, while trying desperately to move on. 

For fans of: Synthpop · Darkwave · Alternative Electronic · New Wave · Electronic rock 

We hope you will like it :-)

ANALOG 80

Time for some Kraftwerk inspired electronic music from Brussels, Belgium and Analog 80. 

Analog 80 blending EBM, new beat, electro wave and industrial rhythms with retro-futuristic sci-fi atmospheres since 2011. 

"Metropolis" is out now if you wanna listen and get to know this producer. 

Pressrelease: 

Inspired by Fritz Lang’s dystopian masterpiece, “Metropolis” depicts a futuristic city divided in two: on the surface, the ruling elite; in the slums, workers enslaved by machines. Moved by their plight, Freder, the son of the local tyrant, joins the cause of Maria, a priestess preaching reconciliation through the heart. 

To crush this uprising, the mad scientist Rotwang transfers Maria’s features into an android. This hybrid being a symbol of the machine’s control over humanity will become a tool for manipulating the masses before being destroyed by the fury of the people. 

This is the track for September. Enjoy !

HOWARD JONES

Howard Jones is a true legend, and if you like me, simply love the sound of the 80s, he has released a live album today featuring many of his big hits from that vibrant decade. 

The album is out both on Spotify and on BANDCAMP 

The album is from a live concert Howard did on High Wycombe Town Hall, 1983 so it´s a early Howard we hear, we have hits like "Pearl In The Shell", "Hide And Seek", "What Is Love", "Equality", "Like To Get To Know You Well" and "What Is Love". 

This album made my day today, and wow, such hits this man have done, love it, we love you Howard.

MUZIK MAG SWEDEN / ELECTRIC CAFE

The blog is nearing 400,000 unique visitors now — which is great—but I’ve also run into trouble with my Facebook account; it was hacked and subsequently deactivated or deleted. 

I’ve created a new account, and the Muzik Mag Sweden / Electric Cafe page is still intact, thanks to my good friend Niklas. 

One of my friends who had about 35,000 followers on Instagram had the same thing happen to him—Facebook deleted all his pages—so I’m not alone, but it sucks because now I have to update the new account with my artists.

When you are downloading files, be sure to check that you are doing it from a safe page, I was downloading a preset for my DAW when I got the alert, unfortunately, too late, the trojan got into my computer some how and f**ked up some of it. 

Well, the most important thing is that the blog is intact and I have taken measures and secured my sites.

ghostbells

ghostbells is an American electronic music duo based in New York that blends darkwave, EBM (Electronic Body Music), and new wave. 

The group was formed in 2025 and is signed to the well-known German record label OUT OF LINE. 

The duo's sound is often described as a "glowing darkness" that combines nostalgia with modern production. Their music is characterized by: ice-cold synth lines and pulsating basslines; drenched, reverb-heavy guitar, and melancholic lyrics and evocative melodies. 

ghostbells consists of the members Perry and Finley, and I strongly recommend the new single "The Silence", one of the best track lately in my personal opinion, but you have to check out their debut EP "Catacouture" aswell, that was released earlier this year.
