Welcome!
Hermidgets releases “Sundown”, a new dark electronic synth-pop single out on December 5th, 2025.
Hermidgets — an independent solo project shaped by a deep fascination for melancholic melodies and electronic soundscapes — announces the release of “Sundown”, the second single from the artist’s upcoming third album. Entirely written, performed, and produced by the artist, the track continues Hermidgets’ pursuit of emotionally charged, introspective songwriting combined with a hypnotic, rhythmic pulse.
“Sundown” blends dark synth textures, pulsing basslines, and intimate vocal work, drawing inspiration from Depeche Mode and the modern darkwave sensibility of Mareux. The result is a brooding and immersive sonic landscape where tension and release coexist, held together by a melancholic sense of inevitability.
The song explores the ending of something once meaningful — whether a relationship, a habit, or an inner balance. It tells the story of two people drifting apart, bound by the weight of their own masks and by the silent distance that grows between them. Among its most evocative lines:
“All the tears I cry dry as they glide / down from my eyes, by the way that leads us to sundown.”
The accompanying music video embraces a stark black-and-white aesthetic and continues Hermidgets’ longstanding choice to remain unseen. The artist never appears on screen, reinforcing a philosophy rooted in anonymity: the belief that the focus should remain on the work itself, free from personalism and identity. For the past five years, each Hermidgets video has hidden the artist’s face through different creative devices, turning anonymity into a recurring artistic gesture.
Hermidgets has released the albums The Mire (2020) and NIHIL (2024), gradually shaping a coherent and emotionally resonant artistic identity. Sundown, released independently via Bandcamp, marks a new step in the development of a sound that is dark, textured, and profoundly melodic — an exploration of melancholy as a powerful creative force.
