NEW BAND SIGNING & FIRST SINGLE
COLD TRANSMISSION MUSIC proudly welcomes the awesome VEXAGON to the label roster.
Emerging from Augusta, Georgia, Vexagon is the darkwave project of Briar Moth, forged in 2018 and shaped by rupture, reinvention, and over two decades of songwriting experience. Drawing from a wide spectrum of underground influences, Vexagon distills themes of identity, sexuality, and self-actualization into stark, emotionally precise electronic music. Working with minimal tools and maximal intent, the project has consistently translated limitation into atmosphere and focus.
Vexagon’s catalog has earned sustained international recognition, from multiple Best of Year awards for 'Love Is Surrender' to Top 10 album placements, broadcast support from key tastemakers, and notable selections by Ellen Allien, including appearances on Spotify editorial playlists and HÖR Berlin. Relocating to Los Angeles in 2023, Briar completed work on 'I For An I', an existential darkwave statement examining the nature of the self and the impermanence of life.
The album 'I For An I' is scheduled for release in Spring 2026 on COLD TRANSMISSION MUSIC across multiple formats. The first single, “Human Form,” is

Bandcamp and various streaming platforms.

Our CRYING VESSEL returns with a signal of collapse.
Taken from 'Sepulchers – The Maiden', their brand new single 'Bringing Down The Nation 2.0' is not a remake; it is a transmission from the ruins of what still pretends to stand. Political in pulse, planetary in scope, the track reflects humanity’s quiet fixation on its own undoing.
This release marks a new era for Crying Vessel. The sound has shifted. The weight has deepened. And somewhere within the machinery, a new presence moves..

Our wonderful IAMNOONE did it again! A new EP at the end of the year.
'Melancholia' is the flip side of ‘the joy of sorrow' coin - a collection of songs that, for reason of style and coherence, were not included in their last album.
'Melancholia' is the delicate change of light, or the sky’s blue slowly shading into turquoise. It is a tender haze that, like a caress, dims the sun; the leaves gliding down from trees; our home welcoming us with the fragrance of a ready meal.
'Melancholia' is the memories of childhood that feel so distant—like a faraway light that glows in the night, and gently suggests the path ahead.
'Melancholia' is a journey through the memories of the past — bright ones and dark ones alike.
Produced in only one hundred copies, each sleeve is hand-printed, numbered, signed and sealed with seal wax — a fragile testament to impermanence.
Secure your copy of this special release soon - exclusively available on
Bandcamp!

Here comes the STORM - out now!
Our awesome HUIR have their brand new single out today! 'Storm' is a cry of resistance and survival amid chaos.

With 'Storm', HUIR delves deeper into the poetics of contemporary darkwave, blending strength and vulnerability, mystery and clarity, crafting a track that becomes a refuge for the turbulent soul.

Our cool OH MADONNA have just released their second single - out now on all platforms!
'Rosemary' is a séance, summoning the ghosts of past bound nightmares. Its atmosphere is deeply rooted in a nostalgic yet beautifully unsettling horror aesthetic. Echoes of 'Rosemary’s Baby', 'The Hunger' and 'Suspiria' linger in the cold mist.
Themes of possession, nihilism and the vast existential void pulse beneath the surface, vibrating through the night like a distant waning. We hear a different voice, hard to place, as the band shows both vocalists can lead. 'Rosemary' feels both intimate and otherworldly, as though the song itself were whispered by a presence just beyond reach.

Our cool witchhouse project HAUNTED HOUSE has a new single out today!
'Silent Moon' is their second single, a whisper from the void where devotion meets darkness. In this song, a woman turns to the moon as to a mother - her silent witness, her guide through the endless night. Her voice, performed by Kiara, drifts between prayer and lament, glowing softly through the mist of shadowed beats.
Produced and mixed by Philippe Marlat, and mastered by Pete Burns at The Shelter, the track shimmers like light on cold water.
The video, also crafted by Philippe Marlat, unfolds this nocturnal ritual - a vision of surrender beneath a sleepless sky. 'Silent Moon' is a hymn for those who find comfort in the dark, and strength in the quiet radiance above.

Welcome to the family, Daniel!

DEBUT ALBUM - OUT NOW!
The awesome debut album "EROSION" by our
MEMORY INDEX is finally out now - offering a darkly introspective exploration of the forces that quietly shape - and unmake - our modern lives.
'Erosion is an album rooted in the textures and spirit of post-punk, but its heart lies in exploring the slow, often invisible decay of the intangible forces that once held us together like trust, belonging, identity, and belief. It's a reflection on how these foundations are worn down by the relentless currents of technology, greed, power, and political instability. Music for the spaces in between where things fall apart and something else, something uncertain, might take shape.' - Memory Index
Get in in digital format or on CD - Bandcamp and our CT Webshop!

OUT NOW! New Single by SIIE
The shadows pulse, the strobe cuts through the smoke, and our
SIIE return with “Papier Glacé” - a relentless new single where high-energy darkwave collides with the raw drive of electro.
With lyrics that drift between cosmic visions and the paralysis of the digital age, “Papier Glacé” captures the tension of a world running in circles - people chasing their day, screens replacing faces, light dissolving into dust.
Hypnotic synths spin like orbiting stars, basslines surge forward with unyielding momentum, and vocals slash through the haze - icy, magnetic, and unforgettable. This is SIIE at their sharpest: a soundtrack for dancefloors where euphoria meets collapse, where darkness finds its rhythm in light.
“Papier Glacé” is more than a track - it’s a spiral of sound and vision, an invitation to lose yourself in the turn of the astres. Out now on your favourite platforms!

OUT NOW - Multifacette is here!
Happy Bandcamp Friday, Music Lovers!
Our glamorous Synth-Punk
OZIBUT just released his great new album 'Multifacette' - out now on your favourite platforms and available on CD, Cassette and in digital format on Bandcamp!
'Cardiac rythm. Between waves of powerful, sequenced synthetic bass and haunting melodies, Ozibut, voice stretched like a single string, delivers abrasive words, disillusioned poetry. 'Multifacette' tastes of sleepless nights and smells of boiled coffee. Eight tracks form a kaleidoscope, reflecting different tones of the same mirror. In the cellar of an industrial cabaret, bodies move to electronic music. A dark, cold, frenetic dance.' - OZIBUT
