Synthpop & Darkwave duo
CAPUT MEDUSAE
release new single
“SCHWARZSCHILD”
.
.
“Schwarzschild“ is the new single by Caput Medusae, out on January 2nd, 2026. The track is a dark hybrid of Synthpop, Electropop and Dark Wave, driven by pulsating basslines, razor‑sharp synth layers and a vocal performance that shifts between introspective calm and eruptive hooks.
“Schwarzschild is a hypnotic, melancholic, and atmospheric track while paying homage to the minimalist pulse of early Synth-Pop and the New Romantic movement (Visage – Fade To Grey). It’s an acoustic voyage where space and time blur”
Caput Medusae opened the new year with their haunting new single “Schwarzschild”, released on January 2, 2026. The track marks the first chapter of their upcoming mini‑album of the same name, set for release on February 19, 2026, and comes with a striking music video that premiered on January 2 at 17:00 CET.

Combining Darkwave, Electropop, and New Wave aesthetics, Caput Medusae craft a cinematic sound anchored in pulsating basslines, sharp synth textures, and vocals that shift between brooding introspection and cathartic release. Lyrically, Schwarzschild takes its cue from the physical concept of the Schwarzschild radius—the point of no return in a black hole—and translates it into the dynamics of human relationships: how close can two people get before everything collapses inward?
The single sets the tone for the forthcoming mini‑album Schwarzschild, which further explores liminal states—between attraction and decay, light and shadow, reason and emotional pull.
Caput Medusae position themselves at the intersection of classic darkwave aesthetics and contemporary electronic pop. Their music merges cold synth layers with melodic melancholy, touching on themes of identity, desire, disintegration, and the darker side of modern relationships—all wrapped in mythological and cosmic imagery.

Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
