Synth Pop Master Class

::: e radio: january 2023

::: e radio: 2023 darkwave-goth-post punk-minimal

Best of the best across all Electronic Music Subgenres as usual (with a splash of EBM to raise the madness level). High production values, insane tunes and cutting-edge electronic sounds as you expect from me. Enter my world with caution & listen at your own risk as you might end up in the loony bin. Don't tell me I didn't warn ya!!!!

Warning: All my Madhouse Playlists are festival length (approx. 8 hrs). You most probably won't be able to listen to them from start to finish in one go ;) I suggest you listen to them through multiple sessions in shuffle mode for best listening experience unless you are planning to throw an Electronic Music festival :)

Floating Ashes - Not There (Midnight Version)

Mecha Maiko (AKA Hayley Stewart) is back with third album NOT OK, which could end up changing the entire landscape of synthwave. The Toronto-based artist has always stood out among synthwave acts for her inventive, dogma-smashing approach to the genre. Her 2018 debut, Mad But Soft, and EP Okiya, from 2019, showed an artist who could produce experimental yet catchy, complicated yet minimalist songs that evoke the delicate and often turbulent relationship between humans and machines. She continued that streak with Let’s in 2019, and loaded it with early ‘90s house and contemporary electro-pop elements that took the songs to dark dance floors splashed in neon pink. It was deeply human but inherently mechanistic.

A lot has happened in the world since then, and NOT OK reflects that — even if the foundation of some of its songs stem from that pre-pandemic, post-Let’s era. Although she started work on the album at rural escape she referred to as “Synthpop Farm,” surrounded by a cornucopia of flora and fauna, she finalized the record in 2021 in Toronto with engineer and producer Jack Marko.

NOT OK tackles the scandalous level of trials the world faces today, including “bogus conspiracy theories, racism, sexism, violence, and environmental destruction,” she says. However, she does this via a kinetic blend of dance-heavy rhythms, captivatingly melodic synths, and an array of experimental sonics that together keep listeners engaged throughout the record’s 50-minute run.

“Hopefully it can validate some of the feelings and frustrations that others have been grappling with, and to serve as a reminder that we don't have to accept things as they are,” Mecha Maiko says. “I also hope it inspires people to deepen their connections to nature, and see just how beautiful life off-screen is.”

Lyrics : 
Hi Jane
You feel like a feather
Look at the horizon
All you see is the sun

Hi Jane
Summer comes to an end
The cold night has fallen
Now you are far away

Hi Jane
You feel like a feather
Look at the horizon
All you see is the sun

Hi Jane
The dark is holding you
Your lips begin to frost
You remember you're lost
