SOFT RIOT
On Glasgow’s Possession Records, Soft Riot is JJD, a Glasgow-based Canadian who has over the last number of years released six albums and has toured off to locations all over Europe and parts of North America, with fans tucked into many corners of the globe. For this show Soft Riot will be trying out new material from a new, forthcoming album entitled Crux which will be out in 2026.
Soft Riot‘s sound — after much deliberation — can be described as “synthesizer-based electronic post-punk”, as his writing approach comes from a punk/hardcore background and pulls in elements from numerous darker electronic genres including synth pop, italo, EBM, art rock and more.

VIGILANCE STATE
This Newcastle-based duo — actively playing out for a number of years now — creates a compelling dystopian analogue soundscape straight from the northern industrial heartland, working in a style that mixes EBM, electro and dark techno. A synthesis of resonant vocals, mournful minimalism and brutalist bass, the State’s sound is inspired by modern legend and ancient lore.

INVISIBLE LOGIC
Now out playing live at various local events, Invisible Logic is a synth-driven project from Glasgow musician Ian Van Bass, doing a fine take on minimal synth and first wave synth-pop. His debut self-titled album was released in summer 2025 and is worth checking out!
