Credo

The Human League

Aggressive sawtooth synths meet the band's classic vocal trio. A high-energy return to form that trades 80s polish for 21st-century club-ready grit.

Find on Amazon

The godfathers of synth-pop return with enough bass and buzz to blow your speakers out.

A high-octane blend of veteran confidence and modern electronic aggression.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The aggressive, distorted synth riff that kicks off Night People like a modern club anthem.
The way the three-part vocal harmony locks in during the chorus of Sky, bridging the gap between 1981 and 2011.
The minimalist, stuttering electronic percussion that carries the verses of Egomaniac.
