Cinematic suspense is at the root of Surrender To The Night, the new single from Minute Taker. Seemingly tailor made for the songs convincing music video, Surrender To the Night doesn’t shy from its soundtrack based inspiration. Its a cool mix of Eighties Pop and crossover soundtrack Eighties Rock. Stylistically it easily connects with OG synthwave releases from FM-84 or The G. We love it.

The amazing voice employed by Waves_On_Waves has been coralling influences of gothic rock and post punk into his 80s framework for the last couple years. That mission has hit paydirt with his recent single Since ’99. Modern but seeped in nostalgic influence, the new single collaboration Crimewave is refreshingly intoxicating. You can dance to the snap of the beat or get lost in the dreamy reverence of his voice. Great stuff.
