The latest single, “Speak To Me,” by Welsh synth-pop/post-punk duo Plastic Estate, intertwines the nostalgic charm of indie pop, 2010s chillwave, and new wave, resulting in a sound that feels both timeless and contemporary.CCrafted by Nicholas James and Stanley Fouracres, the minds behind Plastic Estate, this unique blend of brooding synths, driving rhythms, and evocative vocals was honed amidst the vibrant post-punk scene of Cardiff.
“Yes, there is a lot to be changed and to fight for, but good vibes are not just for recreational use, they can literally build a sense of community among people,” they say.
After their initial releases with Avant! Records, the duo now unveils their second album, Code d’Amour, set for release on October 11th. This new album marks a significant evolution for the act, transitioning from their darker roots to a more polished, brighter sound. This shift heralds a new chapter for Plastic Estate, showcasing their growth and ability to reinvent – while staying true to their essence.
