Side-Line introduces CYLiX – listen now to ‘Don’t Let Me Fade (Prequel Edit)’ (Face The Beat profile series)
Track 15 on our free download compilation “Face The Beat: Session 3” is CYLiX. On “Don’t Let Me Fade (Prequel Edit)” this Greek act offers dark electropop with a fresh undertone and strong male vocals in the vain of Distain!, De/Vision but stronger at the same time. They are clearly part of the new generation of electropop bands that slowly but steadily are taking the place of the frontrunners.
You can listen to the track below:
CYLiX is an electropop band from Athens / Greece, and consists of PlasmaG (synth, guitars, programming), Harry (vocals, programming) and Ilias (drums). They released their debut CD album “Alpha” in December 2010 via Life Is Painful Records (Germany) in a distribution by Nova Media. The album was mastered by Len Lemeire (32CRASH, Implant) and included 2 bonus remixes by the EBM/Synthpop acts Lights of Euphoria and Psyche.
The debut was well received and after the participation in various cd compilations and a few selective gigs, the band performed live in Wave Gotik Treffen as headliners at Moritzbastei stage (Leipzig, 25 May 2012). At present, they are working on their second album which is planned to be released in 2016. We’ll keep you informed!

Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? 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. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
Since youâre here âŠ
⊠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 havenât put up a paywall â 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-Lineâs 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 â and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
