Passive with Desire

A gorgeous, rain-slicked fusion of 1980s new wave and lo-fi dream pop, defined by soaring operatic vocals and melancholic, chorus-drenched basslines.

A grand, theatrical sadness wrapped in warm, foggy layers of nostalgic synthesizers.

Moments Worth Listening For
The dramatic vocal ascent in the opening track Two Lips, where the singer's operatic croon suddenly pierces through a thick wall of chorus-heavy bass.
The icy, sparkling synthesizer introduction of I Feel How the Snow Falls, which perfectly mimics the quiet, cold descent of winter.
The slow, agonizing build of the title track Passive With Desire, where the drum machine pattern feels like a heavy, reluctant heartbeat.
