Grace, The Night Tripper Really good synth work on this album. Drums & vocals sound great too. I don’t usually listen to electronica but I find this quite ethereal and beautiful.

Leland Sage Great ambient and synthwave combined with dreamy vocals and catchy beats. Easy to get lost in the flow of melodies and sounds. Plus, the artwork is striking.
The Effigy

The Effigy It was nearly impossible to pick a favourite track from Alpha. Each song is as strong as the last and they all carry their weight and then some. The melodies are supported by textural elements that bring a unique perspective while staying true to the genre. The track listing has a natural flow to them and the mix was spot on. Thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish. Favorite track: Dimension Complex.

pootle I was really excited to hear this after spending a lot of time with the lead single. The rest of the record more than delivers. Beautifully evocative, detailed and rich, with plenty of bangers.

lost in the night guided by stars a neon sky the streets come alive the city is ours just for tonight as violet night turns to day and time flows by the rhythm of dark skies fades into white under the digital eye we escape inside with neon and starlight our souls will unite broken and scarred reflected in shards across the stars boundless and free to eternity ever we seek born of the night children of stars neon and bright the streets come alive the city is ours just for tonight

dark falls overhead digital phase the city dissolving into the cybersea we reach out in time lingering gaze eternal and free upload in binary far from the night we search for guidance among the stars infinity the world undone dimension complex hold tight to me we'll break this shattered sky the cybersea bleeds its dark neon blood the streets come alive this city no longer ours night calls us to dream in glimmering haze resist and escape we will not perish here far from the night we find our promise into the stars infinity the world undone dimension complex hold tight to me it all comes crashing down

about

Far beyond the dark city streets, a transmission was emitted through the vast neon network known as the Cybersea. Though the message itself was indecipherable, its sonic signature was unmistakable.

The debut album from Krystal Swords has arrived, with pounding kicks, hypnotic ambient passages, and unforgettable synth leads, blending a wide range of influences and genres into one stunning statement. Upload your mind to the Cybersea, dance to its undeniable rhythm, lose yourself to the mysterious digital night.

Just be sure to escape before it collapses.

"Between the bright synths, high-flying vocals, and the pulsing drums, the moments where one's attention wanders are few and far between. There is undeniable intrigue around every corner." - Sleeping Village Reviews

"The album's replay value is undeniable, being ethereal, soothing, and other-worldly. Like an escape to cyberspace and building a home within it." - Bani's Music Corner
