Our friend Goutroy turned me on to this one some weeks ago, tipping me off that this NY-based trio consisted of three members of Red Violet Red, who, which you may recall, also shared a key member with Eleven Pond. The remaining members, bassist Jerry Dellapietra, guitarist Lyle Wells (RIP), and vocalist\/synth player\/programmer Cedric Herrera (who also formed this project after recording with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.systemsofromance.com\/blog\/category\/claude-raines\/\">Claude Raines<\/a>) and recorded two killer darkwave songs that at their core, sound similar to their previous project, but run through a very\u00a0dance culture filter. There&#8217;s quite a bit of acid\/new beat influence, as well as nods to hip-hop, freestyle, and house music, but the vocals and songs themselves cut deep with\u00a0dark\u00a0energy that make this single a true hybrid success.<\/p>\n<p>A quick note that there&#8217;s a hidden remix of &#8220;Suspiria&#8221; buried on the &#8220;Renee&#8221; side of the 12&#8221;, which is unlisted on\u00a0the record itself. I&#8217;ve labeled it simply with the name of the track, but if anyone knows the title of this mix, feel free to leave a comment!<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise, hope you enjoy!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.systemsofromance.com\/blog\/2023\/02\/pitch-black-suspiriarenee-12\/r-7000712-1439531674-6577\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5231\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5231\" src=\"http:\/\/www.systemsofromance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/R-7000712-1439531674-6577.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.systemsofromance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/R-7000712-1439531674-6577.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.systemsofromance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/R-7000712-1439531674-6577-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Pitch Black &#8211;\u00a0<em>Suspiria\/Renee\u00a0<\/em>12&#8221;<br \/>\n1.
