Philadelphia-based electronic ensemble MARKIEMODEL has returned with a brand new single. Titled “Cryodon Cis,” the single is a fast and furious industrial rock rave-up, full of pummeling percussion and deep, caustic synth workouts. The track continues in the similar tradition as Markie’s previous work, tapping into the sleazy, lo-fi, psychedelic underworld of one of music’s most celebrated towns. One could easily imagine the track playing at blistering volumes in a sweaty basement dance club or in a beautifully tense scene in a Greg Araki film. “Croydon Cis” is the first taste of new music from ‘You’re Welcome To The Synth Sludge Salon’ Vol. I., the project’s new EP, due out on February 13th of this year.
The video for “Croydon Cis” doubles down on the track’s infectious, yet gritty energy with a series of kaleidoscopic images, effects, and detached performance clips, evoking a psychedelic rave the likes which have not been seen since Andy Warhol’s Factory days. The clip features the current MARKIEMODEL lineup of Shari Vari (Void Vision), J Buzolits (Illinois), Bryan Binsack, and naturally, Markie, who has been a fixture of the underground electronic scene since 1991. The video was directed by Ryan Bossert, who also provided visual effects and editing.
