Stumbleine releases 8th studio album ‘Deleted Scene’

Published

on

Deleted Scene, the 8th studio album from UK producer Stumbleine, overflows with beautiful nostalgia-tinged electronica. The album is steeped with cloud-like beauty, with opener and first single I Can Stop Anytime I Like fusing addictive sampled vocals with soft, glassy guitars, as if a reflecting pool of the listeners’ memories.

Cinderhaze ripples that pool with a more driving, magnetic force, shifting and pulling its emotional weight in cyclic waves. Ursa Minor Sleeps Forever is fittingly sleepy, circling soft slow synth arpeggios in a dreamy haze, a sound built upon by Somnia to an epiphany-like string bed, never straying too far from Stumbleine’s serene haven of melodic grace. On Catastrophette Stumbleine crafts a more dramatic and poignant web of sound, as if running through the memories created by the rest of Deleted Scene.

‘Stumbleine’ is the alias of Peter Cooper. With roots in the UK post rock scene, the reclusive producer began blending slow dream-like pop with fractured lo-fi beats as Stumbleine in 2012. Melancholic rnb vocals ebb and flow above submerged guitar ballads. Sand blasted samples intertwine with broken beats to create music with a nostalgic fragile warmth. Stumbleine is known for a DIY ethic, releasing music directly to fans or via the independent label Monotreme Records.’

The new album as a whole is an escape to a dream-state of Stumbleine’s making, captivating, yet familiar, and completely enveloping. According to Peter, “Deleted scene refers to the memories that play over and over inside your own head, replaying hazy copies of hazy copies that evolve into a bittersweet fever dream. Everybody has their own unique collection of deleted scenes slowly distorting and fading away.”

Deleted Scene is out now digitally, as a CD in a colour printed slipcase cover and as a limited vinyl edition of 300 copies on 180 g white vinyl, which can be ordered here: https://monotremerecords.limitedrun.com/products/776439

Imbermind Unveils Dazzling Debut Album Never Ending

Published

on

Imbermind, the cutting-edge musical collective pushing the boundaries between electronic purity and alternative pop, has officially released their hotly anticipated debut album, Never Ending. A bold and immersive sonic experience, the 11-track album is now available on all major streaming platforms—cementing the group’s arrival as one of the most exciting new acts in contemporary music.

Crafted by the visionary minds of Edu Imbernon, Luis Clemente, Nico Casal, and Álvaro Monreal, Never Ending is an electrifying journey through sound. Fusing the shimmering textures of synth-pop, the pulse of indie dance, and the emotional gravity of alternative pop, the album stands as a fearless artistic statement. With sweeping cinematic moments and introspective lyrical depth, Never Ending evokes comparisons to icons like Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys, RÜFÜS DU SOL, Moderat, Bicep, and Metronomy, yet retains a distinct identity all its own.

Imbermind first turned heads with their stunning official remix of Depeche Mode’s “Wagging Tongue”, taken from the legendary band’s 2023 album Memento Mori. The rework offered a masterclass in sonic reinvention—paying homage to the original while introducing a layered, contemporary soundscape that marked the group as one to watch.

That promise only deepened with the release of “Thousand Miles” in December 2024. The emotionally charged debut single explored resilience and perseverance, earning critical acclaim for its meticulous production and haunting vocal performance. The track became a signpost for the sonic ethos of Never Ending—a world where emotional storytelling meets expansive electronic innovation.

At the heart of Imbermind’s appeal is the fusion of four distinct artistic voices. Edu Imbernon, a global DJ and producer with a decade-spanning career, brings festival-tested energy and production finesse. Nico Casal, a classically trained pianist and celebrated film composer, injects cinematic depth and narrative flow. Luis Clemente adds versatility as a multi-instrumentalist and indie-electronic producer, while Álvaro Monreal, the unmistakable voice of the project, channels emotional resonance and acoustic mastery.

Together, the quartet creates music that defies easy categorization. Never Ending is not just an album—it’s an experience. From the euphoria of club-ready anthems to tender, stripped-down moments of reflection, the record invites listeners into an ever-shifting emotional landscape that feels both fresh and timeless.

As Imbermind takes their place on the global stage, Never Ending stands as a testament to their shared vision: fearless, genre-defying, and deeply human. Whether you’re a fan of forward-thinking electronic music or just discovering the genre, Imbermind is a name you won’t forget.
