Paul Riedl has proven to be one of the preeminent sonic purveyors of New Age bliss and cosmic ambient vibes. His late night zone out recordings are in stark contrast to his work as frontman for the cosmic death metal band Blood Incantation. Though the band’s last release, 2022s Timewave Zero, was all brooding analog synths and black hole symphonies, its DNA based in Riedl’s already solo endeavors…
Was listening to this new song put up at the end of April by a band I was introduced to via @nugothrhythms (who I now rely on to tell me where to find cool new spooky tunes). I was trying to place where I'd heard the hook before, and realised it was strongly reminding me of the Killers' 'In The Car Outside'! It's really interesting how a few bars of melody can sound so different depending on the instruments and song that surround them.

i do think its kinda funny when i see someone in the year of our lord 2024 talk about vocal synth music like its all gone downhill since like 2010 because like dont get me wrong i love a good niconicodouga-ass 2008 ass vocaloid joint BUT also like. the past couple years have had the most fascinatingly creative and expressive uses of vocal synthesizers ive ever heard in my life DJFSKHJDFS dont write it all off just yet!!
