**Analog Dance** is a solo darkwave / synth-pop / post-punk project based between London and Argentina,blending 1980s dark aesthetics with modern analogue synth textures and driving rhythms. **toysoldier**, the new solo project from Olly Bowley, cites Grapetooth, Chanel Beads, and Lael Neale as inspiration - a deviation from his guitar driven garage rock band, Cucamaras. Some tracks dancey, some reflective, built on the contrast of nostalgic, childlike sounds buried in sincerity. What started as a private bedroom project has grown into a live band drawn straight from the local Nottingham scene.
