Electronic producer Das Mörtal releases his latest single, ‘PIECES’ featuring Dark Synthwave duo Dance With The Dead. The single is taken from the producer’s fourth album, BURY THE SORROW, which is available for pre-order from Bandcamp now before its official release on the 13th of October via Lisbon Lux Records.
‘PIECES’ follows his recently shared heavy-hitter titled ‘IDÖL’, which was praised by heavyweight industry webzine Run The Trap as well as Canadian Beats, adding to the list of publications that have complimented his music. The list includes METAL Magazine, Ottawa Life Magazine, MetalSucks, Cult MTL, Le Canal Auditif, DIFFUS Magazine, VOLT Magazine, and Brutal Resonance to name a few. All the while, his music earned Most Added New Release on the American college radio chart Top 200 NACC, received spins on CJSW Radio, and was featured on the NewRetroWave Youtube channel.
Featuring Dance with the Dead, who were the last people I saw before the world went into slumber. PIECES is the result of the mind’s inability to move forward during that moment in time.
Returning from a sojourn to another genre, Das Mörtal delivers another classically ‘Mörtal’ track. ‘PIECES’ is equal parts retro and dark grunge – a distorted guitar overlays an orderly and symmetrical drum pattern. Reminiscent of ’80s sci-fi movie soundtracks, this administers a strong dose of action-packed nostalgia.
Das Mörtal began his journey in Berlin, inspired by artists such as Steve Moore and Aphex Twin. The producer forges a dark and nostalgic sound, skillfully mixing influences that range from German Techno to horror and sci-fi film soundtracks. With several EPs and albums released, he has performed at numerous major festivals such as Osheaga, Transmusicales de Rennes, FME, and Meg Festival, while opening on tours for Vitalic, Perturbator, Carpenter Brut, artists to whom his music can be likened.
Now part of the world’s leading Synthwave producers, the enigmatic artist offers a more personal sound, a unique musical signature charming a growing audience worldwide. With over 20 million streams on Spotify alone, Das Mörtal receives media and radio support in a dozen countries, as well as on several influential pages on Youtube. On stage, he has racked up nearly 100 shows since 2015, including more than 70 dates in the U.S. and Europe (UK, France, Scandinavia).
