Hailing from Limassol in Cyprus, MoulD is an artist, producer and multi-instrumentalist whose broad musical background and mysterious persona profoundly influence his musical and lyrical style. Initially coming out of the alternative and nu-metal scenes, MoulD’s sound has since evolved, fusing elements of trap, rebetiko, grunge and emo rap.
This blend, combined with his metal-influenced guitar playing and angsty attitude, has formed an original sound that MoulD terms ‘grunge trap.’ First unveiling his highly original style back in 2020 via his debut single “King of Men,” he’s since shared several impressive singles while rolling out his extraordinary creative vision.
Following three tracks released throughout last year, he now brings us his latest outing with his new single titled “MAD.” The new track is a twisted love song that subverts traditional notions of affection. The focal character takes pleasure in doing the exact opposite of what is typically known as “love,” creating a sensual atmosphere shrouded in dark pop instrumentation that gradually crescendos into a metal inspired sound.
Opened with the sweep of reversed sonic textures, MoulD’s voice enters with the downtempo pulse of kick and swell of gritty synths tones. Casting a dark atmosphere with enthralling vocals, at once powerful and subdued, the energy builds with the rattling snap of a trap style beat and angular crunch of gritty guitar tones.
With a commanding delivery and deep timbre, his voice pulls you in before erupting with metal-tinged intensity, offering an explosive burst of industrial rock flair. Bending from hushed tones and smokey arrangements to rousing flurries of riveting sonic energy, “MAD” sees MoulD lay down a truly thrilling listening experience from start to finish.
Paired with the single is a music video filmed by Christina Urbankova and directed by Marilena Chatzinikoli which features actress Sofia Sgouraki and Mould engaged in an intense dance of love. Wrapped in dark visual aesthetic and cut with colourful filters and flashing lights, it’s an exciting visual offering that matches the epic nature of the track.
