Darkwave/dark techno/industrial act Sleep Of Mirrors have put out a video for "Not My Skin", a track lifted from their inaugural record Crown, out in May under Negative Gain Productions.
Featuring the group's close friend and collaborator, Ronnie Canizaro of Born Of Osiris, "Not My Skin" places his voice in a darker electronic environment shaped by darkwave, electro, dark techno, and industrial textures.
The track explores themes of identity, estrangement from the body, and the sense of being moulded by external forces. The accompanying video visualises this tension through the construction of a synthetic body and the existential unease of embodiment. Band footage was captured in Chicago by Cornelius Kite and Tom Birch, while the video was produced and directed by Christopher Lee.
Sleep Of Mirrors is a dark electronic project operating at the intersection of darkwave, electro, and dark techno. Built around dense synthesiser work and a vocal‑driven atmosphere, the project blends ritualistic repetition with cinematic structure, creating immersive soundscapes shaped by tension, restraint, and mood.
Their debut album, Crown, is a ten‑track work that unfolds as a cohesive whole rather than a collection of standalone pieces. Drawing on occult symbolism, religious imagery, and themes of power, devotion, and transformation, the record balances hypnotic rhythm with widescreen composition — equal parts ceremonial and visceral.
