“System Failure” (digital)
released June 11, 2021
about
The single seeks to show how important it is to maintain a permanent balance, a harmony between connecting with other people via a computer – and actually socializing in physical form. Lyrics capture the feelings of frustration, irritability, and anxiety after communication systems break down
“… one of my favorite song lines ever is, “Restart and synchronize in harmony.” Not only it is relatable but also extremely catchy.
… I can’t take my eyes off the outstanding visuals… So, watch it till the end!”

LP: ‘Club Torsten!’ (A very strictly limited edition)
Release date: Feb 5, 2021
Label: Cherry Red Records
“‘Club Torsten!’ has two highly catchy, deeply melodic ‘Electro-Noir’ remixes by Danish synth-scene stalwarts SoftWave” – Cherry Red Records
SoftWave was invited to collaborate with the team behind ‘Andy Bell is Torsten’ (Andy Bell, Christopher Frost, Barney Ashton-Bullock)
Andy Bell says…
“I just love those happenstance moments; it just so happened that I was wearing the SoftWave T-shirt at the same time that my band-mate Barney announced that the ‘Club Torsten!’ remix vinyl was complete .”
“SoftWave made two all new ‘Electro-Noir’ style remixes for my ‘Club Torsten!’ album and I loved their strong retro inspired synth melodies the first time I heard them and the way Catrine’s vocals weave in and out so deftly is just gorgeous!.”“

about
With support from DJBFA and Koda’s Cultural Funds
’Game On’ is a Danish musically uplifting synth-pop universe without ironic, attitude and stadionpumping shifts.
This album is the beginning of something grand. A blend of pop music, synths, hardware, love, and gaming, which completes SoftWave. SoftWave invites everyone to join their game – the only thing you have to do is “PRESS PLAY”.

It was ranked by two radio stations in the end of 2016, Artefaktor Radio (MX), Radio Sol (IS). February 21 2017 an EP review was written by HFM Radio (UK).
