Jessie Berkshires' latest track "Testify" from the USA perfectly captures the gloomy atmosphere of dark wave and synth pop. The creepy and eerie sound is sometimes reminiscent of the soundtrack from "Nightmare on Elm Street". The dark mood created by skilfully placed synthesizers and intense vocals transports the listener into a world of shadows and secrets.
Berkshires' soundscape is rich in detail and creates a mesmerising combination of dark melodies and electronic textures. The song's dark aura is enhanced by skilful sound effects that draw the listener into a hypnotic soundscape. However, the long monologue ending, which unnecessarily stretches the otherwise great song, is slightly disappointing.
Fans of dark synth pop will feel right at home with "Testify", while those looking for an atmospheric experience will get their money's worth. Jessie Berkshires reminds me of artists like Ladytron in certain places, presenting a sound that is both timeless and modern at the same time.

Lyrics of "Jessie Berkshires – Testify"
Im half awake
I hear it cry
Heart shaped declassified
You faked it all
And followed the tides
Im half awake but ill testify
You faked it all
And followed the tides
Im half awake but ill testify
You faked it all
And followed the tides
Im half awake but ill testify
Im half awake
Is it a crime
Lace draped digitized
You faked it all
And followed the tides
Im half awake but ill testify
You faked it all
And followed the tides
Im half awake but ill testify
You faked it all
And followed the tides
Im half awake but ill testify
