Renowned dark synthwave producer Das Mörtal returns with a striking new release, announcing his double single “PARASITE & GHOST,” set to arrive on June 4, 2026 via Lisbon Lux Records, alongside news of his forthcoming mini-album DECVY I.
With over 31.4 million streams on Spotify and a growing international footprint across festivals, tours, and tastemaker playlists, Das Mörtal continues to stand as one of the most distinctive voices in modern dark electronic music. His career has included appearances at major festivals such as Osheaga, Transmusicales de Rennes, FME, and Meg Festival, as well as support tours for genre heavyweights including Vitalic, Perturbator, and Carpenter Brut. Since 2015, he has performed nearly 100 shows across North America and Europe, building a reputation for immersive, high-impact live sets rooted in cinematic intensity.
The new double single showcases two contrasting yet complementary sonic worlds. “PARASITE” pushes forward with a fast-paced rhythm section and shimmering synth lines, channeling a darker emotional core inspired by themes of illness and physical struggle. In contrast, “GHOST” leans into a witch-house-infused pop structure, blending haunting vocal melodies with driving percussion and club-ready energy. Together, the two tracks expand the scope of Das Mörtal’s evolving sound, bridging dancefloor propulsion with atmospheric storytelling.
Reflecting on “PARASITE,” Das Mörtal shared: “An illness has affected my body for some time now, and PARASITE was made under a pain that I can’t quite shake off.”
Now based in Montréal, Das Mörtal first developed his sound in Berlin, drawing influence from artists such as Aphex Twin and Steve Moore. His work blends techno, occult electro, horror-inspired textures, sci-fi soundtrack aesthetics, and Italo disco, forming a signature style that sits at the intersection of nostalgia and dystopian futurism.
His catalog has earned support from influential outlets including CLASH Magazine, KALTBLUT Magazine, METAL Magazine, Run The Trap, Canadian Beats, MetalSucks, and Cult MTL, alongside features across digital tastemakers such as NewRetroWave. He has also seen strong radio traction, including Most Added New Release on the American college radio chart NACC Top 200, further cementing his cross-border appeal.
The release of “PARASITE & GHOST” sets the stage for his upcoming mini-album DECVY I, arriving October 29, 2026, signaling a new creative phase defined by emotional intensity, sonic experimentation, and expanded cinematic scope.
