In “Bore Me,” Mutual Shock combines dark wave with EBM beats and bitter lyrics. Short, stripped down, haunting.

I am the founder and main author of the international synth pop magazine Electrozombies, which was founded in 2010 as a niché music video blog for synth pop and genre-related music. Since my childhood I have been a devotee of melancholic, gloomy electronic music. Started in the late 70s with minimal electro band Kraftwerk and become a real synth pop fan through Depeche Mode's hit 'People Are People' in 1984.
With my knowledge being in the synth pop scene since the early 80s, I write and publish all about this music genre to keep the scene alive and to develop it further. Read all details here: The story behind the origin of Electrozombies.
Gloomy, emotional, honest – my personal take on the melancholic dark wave song “Bring Me To The Edge.”

“Darkness” by Clean Beast: monotonous darkness meets electronic clarity – a song between suffering, light and synth waves.

Danceable synth pop with Cure vibes: Fotorama's Shoegaze Hero is catchy, uplifting, and full of potential.
Gloomy, danceable, resigned: With Heaven is a State of Mind, Pictureplane delivers a contemporary goth pop statement.
