MELDAMOR
MELDAMOR is the electrifying musical project of Mel and Dave Parley, a dynamic duo forging a bold new path in heavy darkwave, currently based in Phoenix, Arizona. Drawing from a diverse range of influences including darkwave, synth-driven post-punk, classic heavy metal, and punk, MELDAMOR crafts a powerful soundscape marked by intense emotion, danceable rhythms, and vocals that range from hauntingly melodic to fiercely aggressive.
Dave Parley, a multi-instrumentalist, DJ, and accomplished music producer originally from Tijuana, is notable as a founding member (former) of Prayers, the groundbreaking cholo-goth project that gained international recognition. His distinctive musical vision blends brooding synths, aggressive percussion, and visceral vocal growls, forming the perfect foundation for Mel Parley’s evocative lyrics. Together, they explore themes of love, grief, pain, and existential unease, giving MELDAMOR its emotional depth and undeniable edge.

SCIMITAR
From the underbelly of glitzy, glammy Los Angeles, Scimitar unveils itself—a tantalizing darkwave trio with an inclination towards the mysterious. Drawing inspiration from the rawness and heritage of death rock’s primal roots and marrying it with the polished flair of contemporary synth-pop and post-industrial vibes, they craft a motley of emotions and tones. With their intricate arrangements and vigorous stage presence, they’re a sight, and sound, to behold.

D.R.B
D.R.B (DOOM RITUAL BASTARD) is an immersive descent into cinematic darkwave, where haunted ambience collides with experimental soundscapes, trap-infused rhythms, and ritualistic intensity. Carving a path through the eerie and the ethereal, the project conjures sonic atmospheres drenched in shadow—dystopian echoes, hypnotic pulses, and spectral textures that linger like a curse, merging the weight of doom with the fractured beauty of electronic minimalism.
