The Tear Garden, a collaborative project between cEvin Key and Edward Ka-Spel, has returned after an eight-year hiatus with their new single "A Return," released via Artoffact Records. This track evokes nostalgia with its immersive electronic atmosphere while signaling a creative revival for the duo. Following their earlier 2017 releases, both artists have stayed active in various solo endeavors, with Key contributing to Skinny Puppy’s farewell tour and Ka-Spel continuing his work with The Legendary Pink Dots. An animated music video complements the single, and fans can look forward to a new album, Astral Elevator, set for release on October 24.
How do you think the evolution of electronic music has influenced The Tear Garden’s sound over the years, particularly in this new phase of their career?
