#goth electro

As you likely well know by now, I have a deep propensity for the dark and twisted, or the witchy and macabre. So when I encountered this unsigned Australian producer and his song Thorns, I fell for it, hard. Thorns comes from WA?STE’s five track Hollow Vessel EP, an inky opaque listen through and through. Thorns is deliciously haunting. Its gothy witch house production and gossamer vocals even evoke some of my favorite horror movie soundtracks, like Disasterpeace’s work for 2015 break out hit It Follows, for one. You can stream WA?STE’s evocative Hollow Vessel EP in full on Soundcloud. It’s out now via the label Genome6.66Mbp.

Through these city nightmares you'd walk with me And we'd talk of it with idealistic assurance That it wouldn't tear us apart We'd keep our heads above the blackened water But there's no room for ideals in this mechanical place (Anne Clark, Our Darkness)
