A joint release from PELVIS, the label run by Melbourne brand P.A.M., and Sydney's BURNING ROSE RECORDS. Cutting-edge synthwave/electro out of Australia. Be sure to check the Cop Envy (Sean Thomas) mix (sample2) too.
Burning Rose and Pelvis records meet in the middle to dish up Dormir, a two piece machine from Melbourne, Australia featuring Morgan Wright (formerly of Melbourne hardcore act Imprisoned) and Harry Maslen (formerly of Postblue). Two tracks of blacked out vocal electronics originally released on cassette are now brought to the floor with remixes by Leo James (Canyons, Berceuse Heroique) and Cop Envy (Opal Tapes, Templar Sound). Cover art by Misha Hollenbach (P.A.M.) squares the corners on this all Australian slab of sound.

DORMIR is the project of Melbourne synthesists MORGAN WRIGHT and HARRY MASLEN, both graduates of the hardcore scene. It's a world that's hard to pin down, but this is the kind of thing that comes out of the independent underground. The originals are electronic/synthwave cuts with gothic, romancer-style vocals reminiscent of someone like PETER MURPHY — almost divinely inspired. Includes remixes by COP ENVY, who releases on Sydney's TEMPLAR SOUND and BLACK OPAL, and by Leo James of 〈BODY LANGUAGE〉 and 〈BERCEUSE HEROIQUE〉. Cutting-edge sounds from Australia. Killer!
