Maud Geffray and Sébastien Chenut, aka Scratch Massive, dropped their latest album ‘Nox Anima’ back in February. It was composed and recorded in Los Angeles and marked a new chapter with poetic flair, cinematic atmospheres and a dreamy, melancholic mix of synth, techno and cold wave sounds. It comes more than 20 years after the pair started out, off the back of a steady stream of superb singles and albums that have amassed millions of streams, led to syncs with brands and TV shows like Yves Saint Laurent, L’Oréal, and Emily in Paris, and headline shows all over the world.
The absorbing ‘Hunger’ is a widescreen sound with ethereal vocals that float above slow, purposeful electro rhythms. Wispy synths and subtle acid lines weave in and out, bringing a cosmic flair as the energy builds. The whole track builds to an escapist peak that overflows with emotion and introspection.
Belaria has risen through the ranks of her native French scene, with sets at Rex Club and La Machine, top tunes on labels like Friendsome, and a stylish blend of Italo, EBM, techno, and new wave. Her fantastic rework is an Italo space disco gem, where synthwave magic and dance-floor grooves intertwine to take your mind and body up into the stars.
Amarcord is an Italian musician, DJ and live performer who blends new wave, disco, techno and ambient on labels like Cardini’s Correspondant, Watergate, Ombra International and Aeon. His remix of another album track, ‘On The Edge’, is a glistening electro workout with uplifting synth arms and heavenly pop vocals that are doused in shimmering, uplifting chords.
Scratch Massive’s ‘Hunger’ comes on bORDEL Records on June 5th 2025 with the Amarcord remix of ‘On the Edge’ arriving on June 26th.
