Silhouettes of the band in a smoke-filled room, lit from behind by a hard orange light.

Bass. Drums. Voice. Dirt in the signal.

Three bodies.
One low end.
All signal.

Moon Smoke is a Swiss trio building a sound from fuzz-soaked bass, motorik drums, a battery of synths and a voice on top. Call it disco rock, synth rock, fuzz pop, garage dance.

Jon and Sergio write the songs, the lyrics, the low end. Bass, drums, synths, arrangement. Up front, a voice carries the words, in the studio and on stage.

Think Death From Above 1979 wired through a broken modular. Think basement club meets dust. Think the constant signal you can’t quite tune out.

A wall of low frequency. Smoke on concrete. An orange spotlight at the back of a garage.

Motorik core

The songs are about small things. Said loud.

  • Isolation. The frequency you can’t tune out.
  • Authenticity, when the mask starts to slip.
  • Anger, quiet and specific.
  • The voice in the speaker telling you to comply.
  • Digging for the signal under the noise.

Voice up front

Concrete images, minimal lines, no moralising.
