We are happy to start a new section called “TML Playlist Takeover.” The name is pretty self explanatory, every week we will invite different bands and musicians to curate a special playlist that will combine some of their favorite songs.

We kick this section off with new wave band Astari Nite, who are getting ready to release their EP Dreams of Majesty on August 15th and will be playing at the Gothic Dark Wave Festival in France on August 19th.

Mychael Ghost, singer of Astari Nite, put together a selection of dark, industrial and gothic songs by artists such as Gary Numan and NIN and coming names such as Drab Majesty and Bestial Mouths.

“I wanted to hear how these beautiful musicians all sounded together, of course including myself so I created what I personally think is a strange and yet calming playlist. It’s wonderful to hear while riding a bike, playing Nintendo or baking a cake.” – M.G.
