Once, the people had hope
although they were miserable
their future was shiny
their purpose was near / high
their morals were up
tradition brought certainty
and peace of mind
it's dust from the moon, dust from the moon, etc.
Now, there's nothing to find
life is an airbubble, it's floating away
we just multiply, without a reason
I want the moon in you, don't let me lose you
dust from the moon, dust from the moon
this dust is like gold, and it's very rare
it's very exclusive and nobody's got it
and when the wind blows, it's flying away
through the spaces of the evolution
Don't fly away from me
it's still the kid behind the masque, that I still love
the silence speaks / waits
it breaks my ears
don't act like the dust from the moon.
O silent moon

California’s Fawns of Love write heavenly pop songs surrounded by cloudlike layers of synth and tied up in silvery guitar lines. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 2, 2019
Castlebeat’s “VHS” offsets bright, jangly songs with smoky, lo-fi production, giving their pie-eyed melodies a sense of mystery. Bandcamp New & Notable May 7, 2018
One-man project Vlimmer exists in the borderlands between post-punk and industrial/EBM, creating danceable darkness. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 8, 2022
The striking synth/goth songs on the latest from Vlimmer feel 50 stories tall, with gigantic walls of sound and bleak, ominous vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 26, 2021
