MOONWLK

There’s no denying that MOONWLK’s blend of introspective poetry and dance-floor electro-rock is a benchmark in electronic OPM. The original duo of Nick Lazaro and Gabbi Buencamino proved how potent their unique sound was on their 2014 debut LP 20Twelve, a record that carried them onward into new avenues of progressive experimentation full of hook-laden choruses yearning to a narrative climax. Despite the drama of the founders’ breakup and the departure of Buencamino, MOONWLK remain an influential compass for future synth-nauts.
