The empathy test in Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner is based on the premise that machines, no matter how advanced, lack compassion. But for childhood friends, Isaac Howlett (vocals) and Adam Relf (production), Empathy Test is all about wearing their hearts on their digital sleeves. With driving synth chords, punchy 4/4 beats and euphoric ‘80s melodies, the London-based duo take inspiration as much from modern acts like Chvrches and Purity Ring as they do from Vangelis and Depeche Mode. But far from sounding like just another ‘80s-electro reboot, Empathy Test have cultivated a mesmerizing and immersive identity which sets them apart from pretty much anyone else on the scene.

With an insistence on glorious hooks and instantly memorable vocal lines, Empathy Test are refreshingly unafraid to be pop music. Since self-releasing their debut EP “Losing Touch” in February, Empathy Test have picked up thousands of fans via sheer word-of-mouth and late-night tweets, and collaborated with Richard Swarbrick on numerous viral animation videos for ESPN and Liverpool FC. Empathy Test signed to Brooklyn’s Stars & Letters Records in the spring of 2014, with their follow-up EP “Throwing Stones” releasing November 18, 2014.

SWIM - Creeper #weareswim

Swim are back with 'Creeper', the second single from the London based two-piece. It follows Ride, their debut single which was loved by Artrocker, XFM, BBC 6 Music and Time Out. autoKratz man David Cox takes on co-production duties.

Creeper is an extraordinary display of electronic pop songwriting; Joe and Rich Swim at their most infectious; a compelling sound combining new wave electronics and Joe's endearing, captivating vocal.

A love for Talking Heads, Bowie and Tom Tom Club fuses with lush shoe-gaze melodies and a dance sensibility to bring us Creeper; a moment of pure electro-pop perfection which sets this band apart as an extraordinary new prospect.

This time the band took to the studio with David Cox, the creative force behind autoKratz. It has turned out to be some marriage; Cox's razor sharp production taking a remarkable track even further.

Lyrics:
From the start,
The weight around your neck, weighs on my heart
It's all too late,
Chill crept to my bones and makes me shake
And I can't sleep,
The walls are closing in around my bed
And now my fears
Start an alarm that rings inside my head

My blood's on fire, my heartbeat's higher without her
I'm lost for breath, I'm close to death without her

Take control
Don't just keep on waiting for a helping hand,
There's no time left,
What will it take to make you understand?
but is it right? is it wrong?
Was it worth it all along?
but will you fight or will you fall?
Are you ready to lose it all?
