Promenade Cinema + The Brides of the Black Room

Promenade Cinema are a UK darkwave/electropop duo whose cinematic synthpop is built on lush, layered electronics, commanding vocals, and hooks that refuse to leave your head. Their sound moves between brooding synthwave and euphoric electro-pop with sweeping melodic intensity. Third album Afterlife (2025) is their most ambitious work yet, and their live reputation - forged at NCN Festival (DE), Infest (UK), Resistanz (UK), ElectriXmas (SE), and upcoming performance at the Out Of Line Weekender 2026 (DE) - speaks for itself. Dark, danceable, and dripping with melody.

The Brides of the Black Room are a Swedish collective who've built something far beyond a band. Drawing on members connected to hundreds of acts across Sweden's music scene - from cyberpunk to doom metal - they channel their output through an elaborate mythology of witchcraft and ritual vengeance, structuring albums as "seasons" and songs as "episodes" in an unfolding narrative. The music is a wall of unforgiving synths and seismic bass, equal parts spectacle and incantation. Second album Commander (2025) continues the saga. Prepare accordingly.
