Swiss mysterious dark electro/synthwave duo Blackbook has just released its second full-length, Radio Strange, via darkTunes Music Group. Radio Strange is the clandestine radio station that dares to celebrate the art of being different. In a world that often insists on conformity, Radio Strange emerges as a hidden gem for those who walk to the beat of their own synthpop rhythm. The album, featuring twelve tracks, is your exclusive invitation to a realm where feeling like an outcast is an exquisite privilege.
With a modern blend of future pop, darkwave, synthwave, and dark pop, Blackbook crafts a sound that is nothing short of extraordinary. This isn't just an album; it's a manifesto for those who revel in their uniqueness, a secret society of musical aficionados who know that being an outsider is a badge of honour.
Radio Strange is a refuge, a sanctuary for those who have always felt a little out of step with the world. It's a journey through time and sound, an invitation to join the enigmatic world of Blackbook. Tune in where secrets are shared, differences are cherished, and join the ranks of the mysteriously extraordinary where we dance in the moonlight of nonconformity.
Watch the brand new video "Out With A Bang", listen to the album, and don't miss Blackbook live at the Castle Party Festival (Poland), Amphi Festival (Germany) and WGT (Wave Gothic Treffen) 2024 (Friday 17th May at the venue Moritzbastei). Link
