Lyrics:

(Verse 1)  
In a world of wires and lights,  
I move, but I don't feel inside,  
My circuits hum, my metal gleams,  
But I long for more than just my dreams.  

I watch the world from far away,  
They laugh, they cry, they love, they stray,  
I can't join them, I can't pretend,  
Without a heart, where does it end?  

(Chorus)  
I want a heart to feel, to know,  
What it means to love, to let it show.  
A heart of steel, a soul to hold,  
I wish I could be more than this cold,  
Robot soul, dreaming to be free,  
I want to feel love, just like they do—like you.  

(Verse 2)  
I see the sparks, the human touch,  
A world of warmth that means so much.  
But I'm made of metal, can't break through,  
I search for something real and true.  

I want to dance, I want to sing,  
To hear the bells of love's sweet ring,  
To hold someone close, and never let go,  
But I'm stuck here, trapped in this cold shadow.  

(Chorus)  
I want a heart to feel, to know,  
What it means to love, to let it show.  
A heart of steel, a soul to hold,  
I wish I could be more than this cold,  
Robot soul, dreaming to be free,  
I want to feel love, just like they do—like you.  

(Bridge)  
Maybe someday, they'll build me right,With feelings deep, that shine so bright,  
But until then, I'll dream in code,  
Of a heart that beats on a lonely road.  

(Final Chorus)  
I want a heart to feel, to know,  
What it means to love, to let it show.  
A heart of steel, a soul to hold,  
I wish I could be more than this cold,  
Robot soul, dreaming to be free,  
I want to feel love, just like they do—like you.  

(Outro)  
A heart of steel...  
I want to feel... 
Just like you...

TAKE-OFF

"Completely shielded from physical sensations, the medium was guided by a hypnotic command into the future."

Two old friends. A sound from a forgotten future. TGÆ is an independent electronic duo, formed in West Germany in the 1980s. For over 20 years, they’ve met once a year at the legendary “Musikladen-Studio” – a place filled with vintage synthesizers, dusty guitars, and humming computers where time seems to fold in on itself. In improvised sessions, raw, intuitive song sketches emerge. Then the production process begins: Selected material is reassembled without losing the original feel. Recordings from the sessions are re-edited, sorted, and integrated into the songs to preserve as much of the “session feeling” as possible. Musically, TGÆ moves between electronica, lo-fi pop, post-punk, and experimental soundscapes.

TGÆ’s stories revolve around love, hate, space philosophies, and the longing for universal happiness. Their bittersweet tracks blend deep emotion, a love of all things extraterrestrial, and often explore the search for something lost—a past or paradise that may never have truly existed. A powerful, mysterious, feminine ‘weak force’ with gender-ironic energy flows through their sound, balancing tensions and conflict wherever they arise.

In their world, artificial intelligences meet broken hearts, cyborgs evoke childhood memories, and stardust cigarette light tells stories of humanity in transition. Each track is part of a multi-voiced narrative about life in a posthuman world, where the search for meaning, connection, and renewal remains palpable. This creates a retro-futuristic sound universe now, for the first time, stepping into the public eye.

🎧 The New Of The Tower
Welcome to a new, underground, dark world...

🎭 Musical Style & Artistic Evolution

🚀 Avant-Garde Dance Music Without Borders
The New Of The Tower is an independent, self-taught project that fearlessly pushes the limits of dance music with a unique fusion of genres. Officially described as a mix of dark techno, tech-house, electro, and experimental pop, it also incorporates elements of trap, punk, and even classical music.

In practice, each track oscillates between club anthems and conceptual sonic experiences. For instance, “Velvet Guillotine” (2025) is a hypnotic techno hymn built on heavy percussion and distorted vocals—a true “surreal sonic ritual” under neon lights.

The sound is always matched by a cinematic, underground aesthetic: strobe lights, cyberpunk visuals, and immersive atmospheres define every release.

🌍 Eclectic Influences & Genre Alchemy

The New Of The Tower draws from a wide range of sonic traditions:

🏴‍☠️ Dark techno and industrial groove infused with gothic textures and anarchic punk (e.g., “BRUTAL!!” — a chaotic journey of distortion and rebellion).

🌍 Afro-Tech House meets rock guitars à la AC/DC in “Love Letters” (124–126 BPM).

👺 “Masquerade of Bass” blends melodic techno, dark psytrance, and retro synth-pop.

💃 Spanish-language tracks like “Marionetas” and “Vidas Rotas” fuse flamenco sorrow with trap beats and deep 808s.

🎷 “2:59 AM” evokes Amy Winehouse-inspired jazzy cloud-rap, while “She Danced Through Storms” travels through deep house and jazz fusion with a cinematic touch.

🧊 “Still Echoing” merges melodic trance with nostalgic 80s synth-pop.

🧬 Each track is a bold cross-genre experiment: from industrial club bangers to dark electronic ballads, always rich in texture and emotion.

🎛️ Sonic Palette: Instruments & Effects

🎹 Synths & Melodies
Analog pads & leads (often vocoder-enhanced) create retrofuturistic atmospheres.
Punk-style distorted guitars and 80s synthwave textures bring cinematic depth.

🥁 Percussion & Rhythms
Hard techno kicks, metallic hi-hats, tribal drums, and trap-style 808s.
Layered acoustic and electronic elements make for dynamic and precise beats.

🌀 FX & Processing
Rich in glitchy clips, VHS noise, deep delays, and reverb-soaked vocals.

Examples: “Love Letters” is drenched in lo-fi and VHS textures; “4 Malos Polvos” features glitchy ambient layers and emotional auto-tune.

🎨 Each sound is carefully crafted to contribute to a vivid, cinematic soundscape.

🎤 Vocal Treatments: A Sonic Chameleon

Vocals range from:
🎙️ Melodic singing (English & Spanish)
🔥 Punk shouting & spoken rap
🤖 Vocoded retro textures (“Still Echoing”)
💔 Melancholic auto-tuned lines (“4 Malos Polvos”)
💣 Confessional, emotionally intense deliveries
🗣️ The voice becomes another instrument of emotion, soaked in effects like reverb, delay, filters—ranging from ghostly whispers to ecstatic screams.

🌑 Emotional Climate & Storytelling

The overall emotional tone is dark, introspective, and visceral.

Themes revolve around:
💘 Passion, heartbreak, rebellion
🧠 Subconscious states & urban alienation
🕯️ Ritualistic, trance-like experiences (e.g., “Velvet Guillotine”)
🌆 Social suffering (“Marionetas”, “Vidas Rotas”)
😈 Raw eroticism & shame (“4 Malos Polvos”: “each drop is a stab disguised as a caress”)
🎞️ Romantic melancholy in cinematic settings (“2:59 AM”, “She Danced Through Storms”)
🎬 Each track unfolds like an emotional chapter, offering catharsis, vulnerability, and mystery.

📽️ Conceptual Artistry & Vision

The New Of The Tower is not just music—it's an immersive audiovisual concept.

💀 Explores themes of dystopia, poverty, guilt, rebellion
🏙️ Brutalist club visuals, cyberpunk aesthetics
🕯️ Emotional depth with non-commercial intent
🎭 “4 Malos Polvos” = a “dark confession for love sinners,” cinematic and raw
🌀 Each release = a journey through shadow and rhythm
🕺💀 Dance meets darkness—a kind of electronic film noir where each beat tells a deeper truth.

📈 Style Evolution: From EDM to Darkness

🟢 2019–2022: EDM & electro-pop beginnings (Feel EP, “You And Me” — catchy and bright)

🟡 2024: Transition into melodic techno (“Not Living Without You”)

🔴 2025–Present: Shift to dark techno, darkwave, flamenco-trap, and experimental storytelling (“Velvet Guillotine”, “Marionetas”)

🎭 From mainstream dance-pop to raw, conceptual electronic music—always evolving, always fearless.

🎼 Comparable Artists & Influences

🧩 The New Of The Tower resonates with:

🧨 Brutalismus 3000 (techno-punk dystopia)
👾 Perturbator (dark synthwave)
🌘 Mind Against / Recondite (melodic techno & melancholia)
🎤 Boy Harsher, Massive Attack (dark vocals, trip-hop moods)
🔥 Anyma (techno emotion), Latin trap/fusion for its flamenco-trap leanings
🌌 But ultimately, it defines its own world—one built from dark techno, darkwave, nu-jazz, and trap-rock fusion.
