Darkwave minimalists The SlimP have issued a new track, "With The One", continuing the trajectory set by "Nothing To Forget" and "Winterday". Both tracks – along with further information – can be revisited via the links HERE.
"With The One" is built on material that has been in existence for many years. The first sketch dates back to 1999, recorded by Mart on a four‑track cassette recorder. That early version made its way to Kristian Bleed in San Diego, vocalist of Candy Push, who contributed the first verse. After that, the song remained unfinished for decades. Only much later did the fragment resurface and gradually evolve into what has now become "With The One". The track bears the imprint of this long gestation: it contemplates looking forward and looking back, disappointed expectations, bitterness, and personal defeat. Its central question – "If a promise is forever and tomorrow may never come" – threads through the song without offering resolution. A spoken passage, inspired by Anne Clark, reinforces its reflective tone.
Musically, the piece is driven by two basses in dialogue, completed by bursts of screaming guitar. Link
