Mexican futurepop act Ego Bliss kickstarts a bold new chapter with “Ascend,” now playing on SynthPop Radio. Their first release since joining darkscene powerhouse Infacted Recordings, the track fuses trance-driven textures, pulsating beats, and luminous synthpop melodies into a high-energy anthem made for the dancefloor. Swirling electronics with a hint of Middle Eastern flair give the production its unique edge, while sleek vocal effects push it into futuristic territory. At its core, a soaring chorus—“We will never be afraid”—delivers the track’s powerful, defiant spirit.

Promenade Cinema’s “Moonlight” is spinning now on SynthPop Radio, one of the shining moments from their acclaimed Afterlife album. The English duo crafts an elegant balance of intimacy and grandeur, building layers of shimmering electronics beneath Emma Barson’s stirring vocals. The track’s haunting refrain—“In your deep night / I’ll be your moonlight”—turns moonlight into a symbol of guidance and hope, deepening the record’s nocturnal atmosphere. Midway through, her voice fractures into a crackling, electrified effect, adding unexpected drama to an already luminous and cinematic piece.

HALLOWS shift gears with “Catalyst,” now playing on SynthPop Radio. Known for their darker, more brooding soundscapes like 2021’s “All That Is True Dies,” the duo takes a brighter, more accessible turn here. Instead of drones and reverb-drenched vocals, “Catalyst” bursts with clarity—twinkling synth layers cascading in shimmering waves. Lyrically, the track leans into renewal and second chances, with the refrain “We still have time to rewind” offering a hopeful spark that contrasts beautifully with their shadowy roots.

Ash Code’s “Far Away” is pulsing through SynthPop Radio, showcasing the Italian darkwave trio at their most anthemic. Featured on their fourth studio album Synthome—already a strong contender for year-end best-of lists—the track strikes a perfect balance between atmosphere and urgency. Echoing verses carry a cavernous, almost subterranean weight, while the booming chorus—“Fate, you’re doomed / To roam far away”—erupts with power and defiance. Blending bass guitar with shimmering synths, Ash Code once again proves why they remain modern darkwave icons.

Talk to Her return after five years with “PLD,” now spinning on SynthPop Radio. Serving as the lead single from their upcoming album Pleasure Loss Desire (out October 30 via Shyrec/Icy Cold), the track pounds forward with heavy synths, tribal percussion, and sharp bass lines. Andrea Visaggio’s deep, echo-soaked vocals cut through lyrics of submission and desire, while the escalating arrangement builds toward an explosive finale. Darker, colder, and more aggressive, “PLD” marks a gripping new chapter for the Italian electro-wave outfit.
