With "Cry Wolfen", "Alpha Crater" present a track that captures the quintessence of the synth and electro pop genre while bringing a breath of fresh air to the current musical landscape. The UK-based act demonstrates an excellent sense of rhythmic dynamics and melodic appeal with this track, which inevitably makes the song a highlight for fans of energetic, electronic sounds.
The song captivates with its lively synthesiser lines, which form a perfect symbiosis with the playful, catchy chorus. The production is reminiscent of the legendary sound of "Depeche Mode" in the 90s, but without seeming old-fashioned. Rather, "Cry Wolfen" succeeds in creating a nostalgic mood that is both modern and timeless at the same time. The tempo is consistently danceable and promises to get listeners moving not only emotionally but also physically.
The band themselves describe the song as an ode to the 80s, with a tongue-in-cheek reference to escaping reality by turning into a werewolf. This creative approach gives the track an extra layer of depth and playfulness that sets it apart from other productions. This song is part of our Spotify playlist ‘New Synth Pop Songs 2024‘.
