In search of the self: MTTM's atmospheric dark wave trip
With “Meet Me At The End”, MTTM has created a song that immediately captivates me with its melancholy. The atmospherically dense dark wave track with its cool synth pop influences reminds me of a successful fusion of Tears For Fears and New Order – a combination that particularly appeals to me as a fan of both bands.
From the first bars, the warm vocals convince me, blending perfectly into the soundscape. The voice carries the emotional depth of the song, while the synthesizers create a captivating atmosphere. I think MTTM masterfully succeeds here in creating a sound that is both nostalgic and contemporary.
For me, the composition is a prime example of how diverse and yet harmoniously catchy electronic music can be. The various elements blend seamlessly into one another, creating a soundscape in which I love to lose myself. I am particularly impressed by the song's dynamics, which remind me of the quality I already experienced in their song “Flood”
Lyrically, “Meet Me At The End” takes on the theme of self-discovery, which I feel is a fitting contrast to the melancholy mood. The repeated line “To find myself again” resonates with me and gives the song an additional emotional layer.
For me, “Meet Me At The End” is further proof that MTTM is one of the most promising acts in the German dark wave and synth pop scene. The song manages to capture the essence of both genres while developing a distinctive style of its own. I'm excited to see what else we'll be hearing from MTTM in the future.

Lyrics of "MTTM – Meet Me At The End"
When you told me
That this world
That this world
Will devour me
It feels like
It feels like
I cannot say
What's inside
What's inside
Can you find me?
Where I hide
Where I hide
To find myself again
I'm on and on a search for me
Meet me at the end
The place where I'm supposed to be
To find myself again
I'm on and on a search for me
Meet me at the end
The place where I'm supposed to be
The words are broken
And sinking
I'm sinking
Time is changing
Expiring
Expiring
Now, you're taken
From my hands
From my hands
Now, I see it
That's the end
It's the end
To find myself again
I'm on and on a search for me
Meet me at the end
The place where I'm supposed to be
To find myself again
I'm on and on a search for me
Meet me at the end
The place where I'm supposed to be
To find myself again
I'm on and on a search for me
Meet me at the end
The place where I'm supposed to be
To find myself again
I'm on and on a search for me
Meet me at the end
The place where I'm supposed to be
To find myself again
Meet me at the end
