Cold Transmission Music has announced the release of "Pop Noir," the latest full-length album from U.K. post-punk/synthpop band Mark E Moon, set for September 19. The album pays tribute to late-20th-century pop music and explores themes like time and perfection, with singles like "Ten Thousand Years," "From the Inside," and "Children" leading up to its release. Additionally, the label has launched "Nexum," a new EP from L.A. darkwave act Shadows Hold, featuring three tracks focused on unspoken emotions.
Thought-provoking statement: As the boundaries of genre continue to blur, how do you think nostalgia influences the innovation of contemporary music?
