D•SiPAUL – Bathed In Neon Light (Digital Album – D•SiPAUL)
Simon Paul Goold is an English artist who has been active for several years under the pseudonym D•SiPAUL. After releasing a series of EPs since 2022, he returns this year with his first full-length album, featuring 11 tracks.
This is a surprisingly engaging record on which D•SiPAUL blends a variety of Electronic influences. The sound occupies the space between EBM, Future-Pop, and Electro-Pop, while the sultry vocal delivery and driving rhythms give the music a sensual yet consistently dark edge. Powerful, highly infectious choruses elevate several tracks into genuine highlights. The production is equally impressive-rich, polished, and at times almost overwhelming.
For me, “Bathed In Neon Light” is a highly successful introduction to D•SiPAUL, confirming him as an artist well worth keeping an eye on. (Rating:8).

I have been working for over 30 years with Side-line as the main reviewer. My taste is eclectic, uncoventional and I prefer to look for the pearls, even if the bands are completely unknown, thus staying loyal to the Side-Line philosophy of nurturing new talents.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
