Following the ‘Odyssey‘ EP release from Mundo D in March 2024, French imprint Mélopée return with the six-track ‘They Are Coming‘ EP – courtesy of Niels Docter, better known as Doctr.
Many appearances on Amsterdam-based platform Bordello A Parigi and Music For Dreams among others led to the ‘They Are Coming‘ EP which explores italo-disco extravaganza, stormy EBM and dark disco coupled with a special remix contribution from Panthera and Valerj.
Our pick for the premiere is ‘Peace, No Peace‘ – a space disco splatter conducted from the ruins of the iconic Cosmic club. This is the finest revival of italo-disco, starting with swirls of psyched-out arpeggios and delicate drumming pads, continuing with space-echoed snares and thumping kickdrums, including FX-soaked sounds from the cosmos.
‘They Are Coming’ EP is scheduled for release on 16th April via Mélopée Records. Order a copy from Bandcamp.
