“Just a banger...!”
Pop pulses with feeling and fire: Modern Ideas crafts Melbourne garage synth-pop where "plastic dreams, electric romance, and machines hum with human desire" — pure Depeche Mode-meets-New Order DNA. Elly Kace conjures a tender, fierce mysticism on The Seventh Gate, casting spells through strings, analog synths, and intimate conversations with the beloved dead. Safiro debuts with Azure, a debut pop album tracing the full arc of a first love and its heartbreak, while Bene Magdala Sisters deliver a glitchy, club-ready manifesto where sacred ritual meets unapologetic queer power.
“Melbourne-based synth-pop/new wave debut single from Modern Ideas, the solo project of Wilding's Justin Stokes. RIYL: Depeche Mode, New Order, Pet Shop Boys”
“Immerse yourself in this magical journey. The age of the dragon has begun, and this song is the spell to awaken them.”
“A glitchy, club-ready manifesto where sacred ritual meets bad-bitch rebellion ✝️⚡, forging a new sisterhood 👑 out of liberation 🔓, equality ⚖️, and unapologetic queer power 🌈”
