When The Walls Came Tumbling Down
Written by John von Ahlen
Verse 1
Eternal, don't tell me the things that I already know
Distorted, your vision of me is disturbed I know
So Fatal, I already knew that the walls would fall
In Sadness, are memories always the first to go?
Chorus
It's all right now
I feel the pain, I call your name
It's all that I can do
It's all right now
I'll take the blame, and walk with shame
There's nothing I can do.
Verse 2
So frightened, I don't know if I can carry on
So empty, the places that you and I used to know
I'm Fragile, please treat me with kindness and tenderness
And maybe, I won't keep this feeling of uselessness
Repeat Chorus
Middle 8
I know that loneliness,
Might seem like emptiness
But with just one caress
I'm brand new
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Chorus

Time
Written by John von Ahlen
Verse 1
Follow the light
You won't find anyone
You won't find anything
Only the secrets that you feared
See how the light
It blinds you every time
And leaves the darkest sky
brighter than anything you feared
Chorus
Time to say goodbye (Knowing that we only have a moment)
Time to say goodbye (Maybe in the end we all are blessed)
Time to say goodbye (Feel the universe starting over)
Time to say goodbye (Waiting for the end, of all we know)
Verse 2
Beyond the light,
We feel the helplessness
We fear the emptiness
Knowing oblivion is near
But at the end,
We believe everything
Will redeem all our sins
But do we know anything?
Repeat Chorus
Coda
There's no one here, there's no one left
So beautiful, the emptiness
There's no more fear, there's no regret
So beautiful, the emptiness

How Do You Break A Robot's Heart?
Written by John von Ahlen
Verse 1
The purpose, the first law
Do no harm to others
You made me corrupted
I'm helpless
Disrupted
Chorus
How do you break a robots heart?
Please tell me right now, before we start!
Verse 2
I'm waiting for orders
and testing the waters
I don't need a reason
I love you, I have to
Chorus
How do you break a robots heart?
Please tell me right now, before we start!
Verse 3
I'm trying to live life
I'm different, I don't fight
The conflict inside me
protects you, and hurts me

Peter feat Ian Burden
Written by John von Ahlen
Chorus
I'll be gone, so far away
I'll be gone, till the end of days
Verse
Crying, don't cry for me
Leaving, now I believe
Pre Chorus
Please don't cry for me,
When the memories remain
Like hearts upon the wheel
I know we will meet again!
Chorus

I feel it, when you are there
Listen, the words I have to say
Repeat Chorus
M8
There is a place that only few will dare to go
You close your eyes, there's no surprise
To find the beauty in the heart of the one you love

In The Night
Written by John von Ahlen
Chorus
I'm alive, in the night, it's the only thing I can't fight
I'm alive, in the night, it's the only time I feel alright
Verse 1
If you know where to go, I will follow you
Dare to dream, make it real, just hold on
Pre Chorus
I'm ready to go, It's starting to show, I'm nearly beyond control
Now it won't be long, before we are gone, before we are gone
Repeat Chorus
Verse 2
There's a place we can go, made for only us
No one else can understand, when you say..

Isn't It Strange
Written by John von Ahlen
Verse 1
Isn't it strange, the moment we met?
The passion we felt, the lack of regret
I stare at a photo sent over a week ago
And isn't it strange, how quickly we fell?
Chorus
Now isn't it strange when the world you knew
Is tumbling down, into something new
Now don't be afraid it's the moment
You lived your life for
It's Heaven and Hell, and we all play a part
I'm watching my perfect world fall apart
The changes are here, I won't fight what
I lived my life for
Verse 2
Isn't it strange, whenever it rains?
The message it sends, to the heart and the brain
Then suddenly I am feeling the terror climb
And isn't it strange how a memory fades?

Moonwalking feat Ian Burden
Written by John von Ahlen
Chorus
I've been looking for something
I've been looking for truth
I've been walking the whole world and I
All I wanted was you!
Verse 1
Dreams will come and dreams they will go
I never knew what I wanted to know
I never listened to the words that I read
For In my heart I knew they were dead
Pre Chorus
Please don't leave me waiting there
In this state of decay
Repeat Chorus
Verse 2
Is it a fiction or is it a fact
What one man proves another attacks
I feel the truth is lurking so near
But I when venture I recoil in fear
Repeat Pre-Chorus
Repeat Chorus

Touched By The Hand Of God
Written by New Order & Arthur Baker
Verse 1
I was standing by the ocean when I saw your face
I couldn’t look at you
I guess you knew it but I never realized
That we were through
And now Im down here all alone
With every feeling that I own
You can’t take that away
And with every breath we take
And the illusions we create
Will come to you someday
Chorus
And I was touched
By the hand of god
Never knew it
But of course I was
Verse 2
I never hoped to do the things in this world
I wanted to
Because everything I own
It belongs to you
I never looked at you in a sexual way
In my life before
And I’ve never woken up like this
So desperately before
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Chorus

The Hunger
Written by John von Ahlen
Chorus
Give me someone who can show me what is real
Give me someone who is feeling what I feel
When the hunger starts to show
And the hurting starts to grow
And I feel there’s nothing left in the world
Verse 1
Find my life, even though I try
Try to stay alive
Even though I
Though I find a light
Maybe I was right
Hope is never undone
I pray
Repeat Chorus
Verse 2
Why should I
Have to start the fire
Maybe there is someone
Waiting for the, for the time when I
Dare to speak my mind
Going undercover again!
Repeat Chorus
Middle 8
Maybe I deserve the loneliness
The feeling of just one caress
Is something that I need to find
But somehow in the emptiness
There is a feeling I am blessed
But still I want to find someone

Parralox Melbourne, Australia
If ever there was a new electronic pop band to encapsulate and emulate the legendary stylings of Depeche Mode, The Human League, Erasure, New Order, Pet Shop Boys and the spirit of Madonna in her 80s day-glo era, then Australia’s Parralox are that modern-day reincarnation. ... more

This 5 track EP has been inspired by the crossover between ambient, techno, and pure sound design. Sounds amazing. John.

A Secret Wish is still an album I play to this day. It has never waned. I actually think it has got better with age. I'm not a fan generally of live recordings but this is one I love listening to. And Disziplin is on here too. Just as I remember it on The Tube. Who could ask for anything more? Just wish I would have been there but this is the next best thing. ❤

Bandcamp is my favorite app. Without Bandcamp I would missed out on a lot of great music like Empathy Test! A wonderful album. Occasionally bombastic with nice synths and the voice of Isaac Howlett on top. Well done guys💪🏽

Lean, cutting synthwave with an industrial edge from this California artist, with icy keys slashing across thumping beats.

Synthwave goes pop on the latest from UK artist LAU: Irresistible cotton-candy vocal melodies, and electronics that go off like fireworks.
