NEW MUSIC; DARK COLOUR - THE GAMES ARE KILLING US

Erin MaherComment

Dark Colour is a one-manned electronic, dancepunk, synthpop, electrohouse, whatever-the-hell-you-want-to-call-it project crafted and fronted by Randall Rigdon.  Music Under Fire cited Dark Colour's 2011 release, Memories, as being “an appealing mix between the chaos of Passion Pit and the ghostly club-feel of a slick Moby dance track like that of 'Go".  Don't expect to find that release available anywhere however, as a major music label had it pulled from retailers for containing the use of an uncleared sample.

Fortunately Dark Colour's new undertaking, Prisoner, doesn't contain any samples and effectively serves as a surprisingly striking introduction to the project.  Prisoner manages to swimmingly transition from indie-cred dance party hit-making to a more deeply personal, solo Carbiou-esqueelectronic exploration.  Stream the new single 'The Games Are Killing Us' and grab it as a free download.
