Denver producer Tom Feral goes dark on "Voices," an instrumental track that mixes cinematic electro with the heavy edge of darksynth and midtempo. Released on October 9, 2026 through his own label Tomonomatopoeia, it draws on French electro and industrial electronic music, and it hits with an aggressive energy from the first bars.
Distorted, Dramatic and Ominous
"Voices" is built around distorted synth textures that give the track its grit. The tempo stays in midtempo territory, which leaves space for every hit to land with weight. The atmosphere is dramatic and ominous, and the whole track has a heavier character than conventional electro house.
The French electro influence shows in the bite of the synths, while the industrial side adds a cold, mechanical tension. Together they make "Voices" feel like the soundtrack to a cyberpunk chase scene, a track that works just as well in a dark club as it does on a late-night drive.
There is no vocal hook here, so the synths have to carry everything, and they do. Each section builds pressure before the next wave of distortion arrives, keeping the tension high from start to finish. It is a focused blast of dark electronic energy that never lets up.
Part of the Rotten Album
"Voices" appears on Rotten, Tom Feral's heavier, more dancefloor-focused record, which leans into electro house, tech house, bass and breakbeats. Rotten was released alongside Mango, its melodic companion album, and "Voices" represents the darker end of that pairing. "Voices" closes the album as track 9 of 9.
