Idoru and Back From The Wave have released “Love Is Not Enough“, a debut collaboration issued on Iptamenos Discos, the Berlin-based label run by Local Suicide. The EBM and electroclash track came out on June 10, 2026 as a digital single. It pairs the Miami-based dark electronic artist Idoru with the French producer Back From The Wave.

“Love Is Not Enough” began as a cross-continental exchange of ideas between the two artists and grew into a club track built on a raw EBM drive, a distorted electroclash bassline and Idoru’s vocals. The lyrics deal with the aftermath of a relationship built on illusion.

The single is available to stream and download.

Iptamenos Discos, founded by the Berlin duo Local Suicide, has previously released music from Kalipo, Dina Summer, Skelesys and Curses.

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.

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.
