About

Join us for an evening of live, original synthpop, indie pop, industrial & darkwave with three original bands

Sweet Machine

Embracing 80’s, 90’s and contemporary electronic musical influences, high energy, infectious dance tunes, killer bass, theatrical performance and infectious lyrics, Sweet Machine make danceable, melodic, synthpop songs for the masses. At the crossroads where the originality of Soft Cell meets the dance-driven pop songs of Pet Shop Boys, via the riffs of LCD Soundsystem and the catchiness of Daft Punk is Sweet Machine. If you love 80s electro pop music, this is the band for you! Based in Frome, Brighton and London, the band has an eclectic following and have previously headlined the Brighton Fringe and Brockley Max Festival as well the 2024 Frome Festival at The Silk Mill. Their third album, Shimmer, was released in October 2022, and is available on vinyl, CD and digital download.

“Melodic old-skool electro, reminiscent of Morodor and Oakey at their best! Original synthpop with a strong 80’s vibe – Depeche Mode meets Pulp!”

Infra Violet

Forming in early 2020 Infra Violet are a Synth-pop/Indie pop duo based in the UK. A collaboration between producer Toby Campen’s 80's inspired synth tracks, and singer-songwriter Beth’s intricate guitar and soulful vocals. After widespread attention in the Synth scene following their popular hit ‘Polaroid’, they’ve gained regular international radio play including BBC Radio, Phoenix FM and Nightride FM, plus a feature on ‘This is Synthwave 3’ compilation album by Red Manor Records.
‘Dream Tether’ was their debut album, released late 2021 to overwhelmingly positive acclaim. Pushing the boundaries of the genre by combining singer-songwriter, rock, fingerstyle and electronic influences, they have now released the first single ‘Move’ from their highly anticipated 2nd album to be released late 2024.

“A record full of heart that others will struggle to match. Stunning. Distinctive, strong, effortless…inspiringly catchy. The next step of Synthwave.” Dream Tether - 4/5 THE DAILY EXPRESS

Palindrones

Palindrones is an electronic music duo from South East London. They play dreamy, Industrial Synthpop, crafting immersive musical landscapes that mix pounding beats and blistering synth drones, with a lush ambience, hypnotic organic textures, subtle pop melodies and haunting, esoteric lyrics that draw the listener into a dream-like reverie. Palindrones was born in the London DIY punk rock scene, with an approach to play dance music with the energy of a punk gig and the pulse of a techno club. Their music crosses musical boundaries and has been embraced by goth, metal, darkwave, dance, synthwave and punk fans all across the UK.
