UK-based electro-pop/post-punk act Scenius released a new single/video, "Funny Sky". With "Funny Sky", Scenius pushes darkwave beyond the expected, embracing the genre without succumbing to pure melancholy. A song that feels both introspective and propulsive, shadowy yet strangely uplifting
Lyrically, the track captures the feeling of sensing an impending threat - something beyond our control. It evokes the urge to both brace ourselves and make the most of the present moment. With warm analogue synths driving the track, supported by a trance-inducing groove and a hint of exotic flavour coming from the bassline and the syncopated rhythm, "Funny Sky" brings fresh depth to the genre while keeping the listeners moving.
The video was done by Scenius and Fred Bellanger. It's based on footage by Pavel Danilyuk. Link
