The debut of Danish two piece First Hate is a tour de force through what synth pop is supposed to be.

It’s super dark, in that heavy, comforting way that reminds you of being alone in a huge city.

Anton Falck Gansted and Joakim Nørgaard has created a unique mix of techno, spoken word, calypso happiness and dark pop, that doesn’t sound like anything else. That’s quite the achievement.
