Philadelphia-based electronic ensemble Markiemodel has returned with a brand new single. Titled “Cryodon Cis,” the single is a fast and furious industrial-rock rave-up, full of pummeling percussion and deep, caustic synth workouts. The track continues in the similar tradition as Markie’s previous work, tapping into the sleazy, lo-fi, psychedelic underworld of one of music’s most celebrated towns. One could easily imagine the track playing at blistering volumes in a sweaty basement dance club or in a beautifully tense scene in a Greg Araki film. “Croydon Cis” is the first taste of new music from ‘You’re Welcome To The Synth Sludge Salon’ Vol. I., the project’s first full-length album, due out on February 13th of this year.
The video for “Croydon Cis” doubles down on the track’s infectious, yet gritty energy with a series of kaleidoscopic images, effects, and detached performance clips, evoking a psychedelic rave the likes which have not been seen since Andy Warhol’s Factory days. The clip features the current Markiemodel lineup of Shari Vari (Void Vision), J Buzolits (Illinois), Bryan Binsack, and naturally, Markie, who has been a fixture of the underground electronic scene since 1991. The video was directed by Ryan Bossert, who also provided visual effects and editing.
