Swiss-German duo SIIE released the single “Indigo” via German label Cold Transmission Music on 17 July 2026. The coldwave and darkwave release arrives with an official music video and precedes a run of 2026 tour dates that include support for Nitzer Ebb.

Cold Transmission Music describes “Indigo” as “a dreamlike journey through smoke, fading light, and fractured memories” that “drifts between French and German, blurring the line between longing, illusion, and memory.” The single holds two versions: the original track and an extended version.

SIIE also released an official music video for “Indigo,” shot by DOP Franz Schepers and published through Ed. Babelfish-Rückbank and Edition W-I-R-E.

About SIIE

SIIE is a German-Swiss electronic duo founded in 2021 and based in Hamburg, Germany. The project keeps its members anonymous to center attention on the music and visuals, mixing darkwave, techno and EBM with lyrics that have run from French into a French-and-German mix on “Indigo.”

SIIE debuted in 2023 with a run of singles and videos through the US label Manta Recordings, featuring remixes by Panther Modern, Skelesys and Joyce Muniz. In 2024, the duo released the single “À Contre Jour” with Sian and Damon Jee on Joris Voorn’s Spectrum imprint, alongside the collaborative track “Violent” with Idoru. Its video for “Le Sept” placed third in the Performance category at the 2024 Berlin Music Video Awards, and SIIE began playing live that year, including dates at Berlin’s Kit Kat Club, Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Leipzig and Logo in Hamburg.

SIIE signed to Cold Transmission Music in late 2024, releasing the introductory single “Grand Virage” that November and the second single “Cité Lunaire” in January 2025. Its debut album, “Acmé,” followed with ten tracks blending synthpop, EBM and dark-techno, released digitally and on CD on 2 May 2025 and on a limited 300-copy solid light pink vinyl pressing that June; Side-Line’s review rated the album 8 out of 10. SIIE issued the EP “Papier Glacé” on Cold Transmission Music later in 2025. “Indigo” is the duo’s newest single, released ahead of a European tour that includes 2026 support dates for Nitzer Ebb.
