Dead Astronauts – Ghosts (Album – Digital/CD/Vinyl – Cold Transmission Music)
The American duo Jared Kyle and Slade Templeton have just released their fourth album, showcasing a sound still rooted in Electro/Wave-Pop, heavily influenced by the productions of the 80s. Yet, they infuse this familiar style with a distinct, personal touch that feels both refreshing and contemporary. The tracks are crafted with a minimalist approach, but they captivate the listener through their simple yet effective choruses and irresistibly catchy melodies. The deep, sultry timbre of the vocals adds an alluring layer to the music. This Electro/Wave-Pop offering, with its dark and challenging edge, is undeniably charming, even if it doesn’t quite break new ground. (Rate: 7½)
