Refraction Overdrive

A 1 track synth pop single (3m 56s) — released March 5th 2021 on flau

CRYSTAL are experts at their own brand of retro-futuristic synth. Discovered online by Gaspard Auge (Justice) and Surkin, the world has steadily been taking note of the duo. Headed up by Ryota Miyake (aka flau roster artist Sparrows), the duo's sound may have taken different trajectories, but their experimental, energetic new wave meets techno with added video game music continues to turn heads.


Taking its name from William Gibson's 1988 sci-fi novel Mona Lisa Overdrive, 'Refraction Overdrive' is a galloping epic of synths with catchy vocals telling the tale of someone who falls in love with a fantasy robot.
