Phase Fatale
Skycraper
I really like the
true dark-electronic sound, I like Minimal Wave and The New
Millennium have revealed some awesome bands in this music style.
Phase Fatale is a new project of Hayden Payne (from the cold wave
band Dream Affair). And actually he’s doing something really
interesting here, because Phase Fatale is a combination of Minimal
Wave, Industrialized beats and sound, retro-futuristic landscapes,
and powerful highly-danceable rhythms totally appropriated for the
dark-dance floor. Because of its unique mixture of electronic music
styles; Phase Fatale is a relevant sound, this project has their own
charm.
“Skyscraper”
will make you think about a great city and its nightlife, this track
is totally appropriate for electronic dance clubs. Minimal shynths
and noisy-mechanical industrial beats here; this is an excellent
opening track and a perfect introduction to the musical vision of
Phase Fatale. “Waveguide” continues with the dance-club mood,
this song features Minimal Wave chords, and powerful mechanical
rhythms. “Untitled” is a stunning combination of Electronic-Dark
Post Punk sound mixed with minimalistic shynts, and
Industrial-metalized noise: This song has some experimental feel, but
is pretty catchy stuff. “Vacuum” is atmospheric and cinematic, a
total trip into blackness.
If you really like
Minimal Wave Music; definitely you have to check to Phase Fatale,
they have an innovative vision, and this amazing combination of
Dark-Electronic music styles. Definitely you need more than analog
shynts and drum machines to make Minimal Wave music, you need a
special talent, and vision; and Hayden Payne has both. This is a four
song EP and I’m hooked, definitely I’m looking forward for the
future releases of Phase Fatale.
