Das Mörtal, the enigmatic force in dark synthwave, has resurfaced with the electrifying double single ‘PARASITE & GHOST‘, released this past weekend through Lisbon Lux Records. Amassing over 31 million Spotify streams, he has carved out a formidable discography of EPs and albums, capturing the attention of global media and radio. His hypnotic performances have lit up major festivals like Osheaga, Transmusicales de Rennes, FME, and Meg Festival, and he has shared the stage with icons such as Vitalic, Perturbator, and Carpenter Brut. Since 2015, Das Mörtal has commanded nearly 100 shows, with more than 70 dates spanning the US, UK, France, and Scandinavia. His music pulses through essential Spotify playlists like Retrowave // Outrun and Darkwave.
‘PARASITE‘ bursts forth with an unyielding darkwave energy, its urgent rhythms and vivid synths echoing the chaos of inner struggle. ‘GHOST‘ drifts into a spellbinding blend of witch-house and pop, with ethereal vocals gliding over thunderous kick drums that beckon bodies to move. Together, these tracks carve a bold path for Das Mörtal’s next era, striking a chord with devotees of Vitalic, Perturbator, and Ø [phase]. They build anticipation for his forthcoming mini-album DECVY I, set to arrive on October 29.
‘PARASITE‘ features urgent rhythms and sharp synths, channeling intense energy and emotion through a darkwave lens. The vocals are layered with atmospheric textures, creating a cathartic experience. In contrast, ‘GHOST‘ incorporates witch-house elements, light vocals, and strong beats to produce an enigmatic and immersive soundscape.
Together, these tracks open a portal into a mini-album shaped by shadowy electronic sorcery, where occult grooves and boundary-pushing textures conjure music that is equally suited for the dance floor and introspective nights. This daring release is set to have e-boys and e-girls baring their fangs all summer long.
Das Mörtal had this to say: “An illness has affected my body for some time now, and ‘PARASITE‘ was made under a pain that I can’t quite shake off.”
