Swiss Pleasure ‘2009’

With ‘2009’, Swiss Pleasure delivers an evocative, genre-blurring experience that lingers long after the final note. The band’s signature fusion of indie rock, post-punk, and dream pop shines through, with layered instrumentation that perfectly mirrors the track’s emotional depth. The music video—crafted from the band’s own homes and personal objects—adds another dimension, using inventive visual techniques to explore isolation, self-perception, and the struggle between fantasy and reality. Rotating the role of the protagonist reinforces the song’s intimacy, making ‘2009’ a deeply immersive, introspective journey, as hypnotic as it is emotionally raw.

Craigology’s, Secrets from a Gemstone, is a breathtaking tapestry of sound, weaving together ambient piano, neoclassical depth, and smooth electronic jazz with orchestral grandeur. Drawing inspiration from luminaries like Max Richter and Ludovico Einaudi, Craigology crafts a sonic experience that feels both intimate and cinematic.
