Dark Summer by EM_LEN
Dark Summer, the latest track and EP from EM_LEN draws inspiration from the days of 12’ singles, discovering new music on late night FM radio and the loneliness long summer nights can bring. The recording process was a retrospective experience recalling a time when music was discovered by sacrificing sleep on school nights listening to frindge DJ shows (like Rodney on the Roq on KROQ in So Cal).
The EP was recorded in summer 2025 and utilizes real drums played skillfully by my son Riley. The production and recording of Dark Summer was a full circle mement for this old postpunk / goth head. Memories were remembered and new ones have been created.
We hope you enjoy….
