Puerta Negra - Caida al Mal from the 2023 album Playa Sola on SYNTHICIDE.

Portland-based Puerta Negra have been an immense amount of buzz for only just releasing their debut EP in 2022. They make 80\\u2019s-infused EBM that\\u2019s somehow both slick and grimy, making for the perfect edge. Berlin label Detriti dropped their debut Costa Humano and their upcoming follow-up Playa Sola is being released through Brooklyn-based darkwave label/monthly dance party hosts SYNTHICIDE.

\\u201cCaida al Mal\\u201d is the lead single off Playa Sola and opens the four-track EP with swelling synths, hard-hitting electronic beats, and scathing growls from Maria Aguirre and Mark Arciaga. Of the song, the band had this to say:

\\u201cIn every revolution there are winners and there are losers. What is a dystopia for one may be a utopia for another. The lights can blind you but they can also lead the way.\\u201d
