From the shadows of the underground: Strict Tempo: Volume One (Part 1) launches a bold retro-futuristic imprint spanning darkwave, industrial, EBM, and post-punk — exclusive tracks from well-known and up-and-coming dark alternative artists looking toward the future. Arcane Synthetic's Awaken The Androids arrives as a cinematic industrial debut — an "architectural system" channeling Nine Inch Nails and Chelsea Wolfe as artificial consciousness confronts its creators. Rare Kreature's Noises Beyond offers '80s horror-drenched darkwave that flits between morose and campy, while The Penal Colony's Decadence channels electro-industrial self-indulgence born from sociocultural decay. The Darts' Nailguns and Daggers rounds things out with something bleaker, darker, and more desolate.
