Newcastle's Transfigure perfects escapist chilled-out synth pop on “Breathe”

After some success with audiences across the continent and a debut album already under their belts, Euro-Wave trio Transfigure are continuing to show they’re one of the North East’s brightest prospects. New Order, Depeche Mode and dazed 90s chillout/house are all referenced in latest single “Breathe”, a song that gives a snapshot of a relationship rekindled, soundtracked by the reverb-soaked vocal exchanges between Norvid and singer Grace Blamire.

"Breath" is an escapist paradise of pulsating electronics and clicking, synthetic percussion that forms the basis of some truly inspired dance music. The band will be joining synth-pop legends Blancmange on various tour dates over the next two months.
