THE MUSICAL WORLD OF TWICE DARK
"Invisible Man" by Twice Dark is a fresh blend of darkwave and synthwave, continuing the sonic trials that began with the track "Telekinetic." Led by Josh Kreuzman, the project thrives on a signature sound that fuses catchy, danceable rhythms with an atmospheric, slightly edgy tone. As with "Telekinetic," "Invisible Man" draws listeners into a world of moody, retro-inspired vibes, characterized by pulsing synths, driving beats, and haunting melodies. The track, though dark in theme, exudes a sense of energy, perfect for anyone who enjoys electronic music with a nostalgic nod to 1980s styles.
The song’s structure and mood reflect Kreuzman’s approach in crafting rhythms that beckon you to the dancefloor, while the slightly gritty textures of darkwave give it a unique edge. It’s a track that plays with contrasts—its upbeat, danceable energy paired with slightly introspective lyrics which is a classic mix.
Lyrically, "Invisible Man" delves into themes of alienation, self-perception, and longing, giving it an authenticity that resonates with listeners on a personal level. The message is grounded in real human experiences. The songwriting balances this emotion with the some allure of retro synthpop, creating amusic that has some relevance.
"Invisible Man is about a few things. It’s about feeling unseen but it’s also about the realization that any mark you leave on society, or the world will disappear and be forgotten very quickly. It’s about the idea that life is fleeting, and you can embrace that and live for the moment, or you can get bogged down with the futility of life. I always look for new ways to write about my feelings about life and existence. This time I used the idea of superpowers or extra sensory abilities as a metaphor for my feelings about life. I wanted to write a concept album where each song uses a superpower as a way to describe emotions" - songwriter Josh Kreuzman (Twice Dark)
Released through the Russian record label Darkpage, "Invisible Man" represents Kreuzman’s commitment to a brilliant fusion of old and new, both sonically and with theme.
We loved both of these songs and are now fans of Twice Dark ourselves.
Perhaps you should also give it a listen.
