The dark electro/synth-pop duo from Switzerland, Blackbook, released a new single and lyric video, "Technophobia". A sharp and catchy track for all modern new wave souls who feel a little lost in a world of constant connection. Retro-flavoured synths meet a paranoid pulse, creating the perfect soundtrack for those who dream in analogue.
Blackbook's "Technophobia" dives deep into digital anxiety and is meant for fans of synthpop, darkwave, and 80s-inspired electro. This one's for you—if your heart skips a beat every time your phone rings... you’re not alone.
Disconnect to reconnect, and in case that you've missed it, over HERE is Blackbook's previous single "Eternal Glory". Link
