Modern Darkwave Playlist 2026, any recommandation ?

Je suis en train de créer une playlist darkwave/post-punk moderne axée sur la darkwave sombre ou romantique, la coldwave et des morceaux synthétiques nostalgiques/cinématographiques.

J'essaie de la mettre à jour régulièrement avec les nouveautés de 2025-2026, ainsi que des classiques et de nouveaux artistes underground.

N'hésitez pas à me recommander des sorties darkwave/post-punk/coldwave.

Voici le lien : https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1HUX2lODQZMpR2bC8HTEdC

Dites-moi si vous aimez et si vous trouvez la playlist cohérente.

New post-punk/darkwave community

Hello, I want to share with you all my new project.

I basically made a web app with postpunk bands, a map to navigate the world of postpunk, events and some of the history.

If you want to navigate it, please suggest me any feature you would like to see!

www.postpunkworld.com

I also post on instagram videos of the bands i have already added!

This Goth playlist includes one of the most underrated, Depeche Mode songs, blasphemous rumors!

And now I know Depeche Mode used to do great Goth music

NeoTokyoBoy- Witchcraft

Hi everyone! I don’t use AI in my music and I never will. Even though I’m into cyberpunk and sci-fi (kind of ironic, I know), I prefer to keep my music real.

I just wanted to share my track “Witchcraft” with you, made out of pure passion.

Hope you enjoy it, thanks for listening :)

ALSO - Pioneers (darkwave/dream-pop, Los Angeles) - releasing May 22nd

Hi r/darkwave - I'm Drew from Los Angeles duo ALSO. We've been making dark, cinematic music for over 20 years, influenced by many such as Cocteau Twins, Massive Attack and Joy Division.

Our new single "Pioneers" drops May 22nd - loosely inspired by William Faulkner's "Barn Burning" and a lifelong yearning for peace and solitude.

Advance listen here Pioneers by ALSO.

Would genuinely love to hear your thoughts.

Made a cinematic 4K cover of Enjoy the Silence - industrial electronic reimagining. 10K views in 8 days with zero promotion. Would love the community’s thoughts.

Been obsessed with this song for years. Kara Marauder finally brought it to life as a full official music video - dark, cinematic, heavy electronic production in 4K.

No promotion, no paid ads - just posted it 8 days ago and the algorithm picked it up organically. The DM community is exactly who I wanted to see it.

Would love to know what you think - especially whether the reimagining does the original justice.

Velvet Ashes is a gothic punk / darkwave project from Japan.

This performance video captures the raw energy of our sound — somewhere between post-punk, darkwave, and industrial.

Inspired by the underground spirit of classic gothic and post-punk scenes, we aim to create dark, sharp, and emotional music that resonates beyond borders.

Would love to hear your thoughts.
