Featuring:
Ayria
For over two decades, Canadian icon Jennifer Parkin has carved out a unique space in the industrial scene as Ayria, a driving feminine force behind some of the genre's most addictive earworms. Fusing driving bass synths with addictive, stompy beats, Ayria has hooked listeners since 2003 with a sound that is as catchy as it is dark.
Following the success of her 2022 Artoffact Records debut, This is my Battle Cry, which featured anthems like "Stranger Danger" and "No One Asked You”, Ayria embarked on the Battle Cry tour, headlining stages from the UK to the US and Canada. Her live show is a proven force of energy.
2026 marks the next evolution of Ayria. With her seventh full-length studio album out this year, Jennifer is set to deliver a slick, mature, and intensely dark and danceable new chapter with songs released so far “Vicious World” including an accompanying new music video, “Not My First Time”, “Long Gone” and “Antihero”, providing a sample of the stomp-worthy beats and dark & driving synths and synthpop to come.
NØIR
NØIR is the New York City-based electronic dark pop project led by acclaimed vocalist Athan Maroulis, whose unmistakable voice helped define the industrial and darkwave scenes with Spahn Ranch before joining the legendary Black Tape for a Blue Girl. Drawing from these influential roots while embracing a modern electronic sound, NØIR blends lush synths, cinematic production, haunting melodies, and emotionally charged songwriting into a style that is both timeless and contemporary.
Debuting with the single My Dear in 2012, NØIR followed with the critically acclaimed album Darkly Near, earning praise for its intimate, poetic approach to electronic music. The band's sound continued to evolve with the addition of Demetra Songs and Kai Irina Hahn, whose keyboards and backing vocals brought new depth to NØIR's live performances and recordings. Guitarist and producer Erik Gustafson later joined the project, helping shape releases including The Burning Bridge and A Pleasure, further expanding the band's sophisticated blend of dark pop, synthpop, and gothic electronica.
With acclaimed releases on Metropolis Records, collaborations with leading artists in the dark alternative scene, NØIR continues to captivate audiences with immersive live shows that seamlessly fuse industrial energy, gothic atmosphere, and elegant electronic songwriting.
Melody Zenith
Melody Zenith is a darkwave enchantress, weaving poetry and melody into dramatic electronic soundscapes. The project blends glossy, glistening synths, pulsing basslines, and melancholy melodies with gothic romanticism and cinematic glamour. Lyrically and visually, the work draws from myth, magic, classic cinema, and eras long past - reimagined in a modern, electronic context.
