Husband and wife synth pop duo based in Cologne, Germany. Their first song called Small Town Blues is minimalist indie electropop at it's best with a dark undertone and an overall sadness and melancholy, immediately catching the listener with its beat and driving sequencer Bass line. A danceable heavy synth-pop song, shimmering in dark neon colors. The dark lyrics set a contrast here, telling the listener of unfulfilled dreams, of a deep wish of breaking out of routine. Small Town Blues is a Song about leaving everything behind and start all over, because there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. There’s something so serene about the robotic futurism of About Gorillas and Vampires ‘Working Like A Robot’. The quaint and glistening electronic beat coupled with a beautifully touching vocal performance make for a strange pairing between the metallic and the natural. The entire song feels dystopic, but strangely wistful and hopeful at the same time. Filled with little sonic elements that add to the overarching gears, nuts, and bolts aesthetic, it’s in the synth driven melody that you find yourself inextricably hooked. Everyone loves a good 80s-reminiscent, synth-pop track. “Space/Ripley” by About Gorillas and Vampires is one of the catchiest illustrations of this genre. With its punchy drums, twinkly synths, and dramatic chord progressions, this track emulates one of history’s most nostalgic decades all while maintaining a cool, modern atmosphere. https://aboutgorillasandvampires.bandcamp.com <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/About+Gorillas+and+Vampires">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
