Lone Assembly are a Swiss quartet blending new wave, romantic synthpop and dark, melancholic post-punk. Formed by Raphaël Bressler (vocals, keyboards), Glenn Le Meur (guitar), Jim Bodeman (bass) and Romain Segu (drums), the band broke through in 2024 with their debut EP That Never Happened — a release rooted in themes of grief, emotional distance and vulnerability, pairing ’80s cold-wave textures with sharp modern production. Their forthcoming debut album Knots & Chains, due February 2026 via Irascible Records, expands on this world with thunderous basslines, hypnotic rhythms, reverb-soaked guitars and atmospheric synths underpinning Bressler’s deep, resonant vocals. Known for their striking gothic-inspired visuals and growing reputation for powerful live shows, Lone Assembly have quickly built a dedicated following across the new-wave and dark-wave scenes. Ro Nova is a London-based electropop artist and producer blending ’80s synth textures with ethereal vocals to create a sound that feels both nostalgic and forward-looking. Since the release of her debut single “do you think it’s fine?”, she has received support from BBC Radio 1, BBC London and Reprezent Radio. A feature with German electronic heavyweight Schiller helped expand her audience internationally. Ro Nova has toured Europe with Schiller and collaborated with Grammy Award-winners Fred again.. and Kamille, alongside sessions with RAYE, MNEK and Toddla T.
