Metroland kicks back with a double EP called ‘Synthetic Sound’ & ‘Synthetic Sound (Remixes)’ – listen here
One of Belgium’s most popular electronic music export product Metroland delivered a musical testimonial for their lost friend Louis Zachert (Passenger L – on the right on the photo above) by releasing their album “Things Will Never Sound The Same Again”.
The songs on this album all relate to their friendship and whereas the first single “Under The Roof” was named after the recording studio where they spent loads of time together, their new single “Synthetic Sound” is about their common deep love for synthetic music and sound.
Metroland deliberately opted to remix all the versions themselves, “in order to contain the true spirit of their synthetic sound” so they say. The single (available here on Bandcamp) is also released in an alternative “remixes” version (which is available here on Bandcamp).

Side-Line also covered Metroland’s ‘Brothers’.

Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.

Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void.
