MATTE BLVCK
MATTE BLVCK is an electronic group based in San Diego, California, known for their fusion of industrial, darkwave, and cinematic dark pop. Formed in 2020, the band consists of Alex Gonzales, Daniel Corrales, and Bidi Cobra. Their sound is characterized by intricate production and a blend of dark electronic subgenres, including EBM and synth-wave. The band's debut album, "I'm Waving, Not Drowning" (2020), was largely written during the COVID-19 pandemic and explored themes of isolation and resilience. In early 2024, they released their highly anticipated second album, "Vows," which featured the standout single "BTTR," a collaboration with darkwave legends Clan of Xymox.
SNAKES OF RUSSIA
Snakes of Russia is the solo dark electronic project of Los Angeles-based composer, sound designer, and producer Joseph Holiday. Known for a heavy, dystopian sound often described as "death beats" or "synth doom," Holiday blends analog synthesis with industrial textures and gritty percussion. Despite the name, the project is American. Holiday grew up studying jazz drumming, which heavily influences the project's complex rhythm structures. His work focuses on emotional depth and analog "destruction" rather than clean digital precision.
SO MUCH BLOOD
SO MUCH BLOOD is a Detroit-bred, Los Angeles-based artist and electronic music producer. Known for a dark, atmospheric sound often categorized as "Elektronaut" or industrial-adjacent, the project is currently active with a 2026 tour supporting the band Matte Blvck on their "Holy Wars" tour.
