Her Absence Fill The World, a Berlin-based Neue Türkische Welle band, has emerged from a two-year hiatus with their latest single, “Light Blue Train,” teasing their upcoming album “Unknown Territories.”
The band’s melodies oscillate between feelings of abandonment and pursuit, drawing from classical violin and techno influences crafted during their journey from Ankara to Berlin. “Light Blue Train” showcases atmospheric guitar arpeggios, nods to ’90s and early 2000s indie vocals, and punchy drums, delivering a fresh interpretation of indie rock. The track envelops listeners with its wistful vocals, engaging synth leads, and gentle beat, creating a hypnotic ambiance ideal for a leisurely journey or drifting into slumber.

The echoes of their performance at the 30th anniversary of Wave Gotik Treffen still linger, solidifying Her Absence Fill the World’s status as rising stars in the dark-wave underground scene. Hailing from their self-run DIY label, U-Boddin Records, in Berlin, the track combines melancholy heartache with a hypnotic electro vibe. Mixed by Sonny DiPerri and mastered by Dave Cooley at Elysian Mastering, it’s a blend of shadows and beats.
Her Absence Fill The World’s music, deeply reflective of their unique sound and diverse cultural influences, has previously graced a variety of independent dark scene labels, including Detriti Records, Cold Transmission, and Oraculo Records. Their exceptional talent and burgeoning potential have started to carve out their niche within the underground dark-wave music scene.
They emerged as the headliner of the Art Carnival Festival in Gröningen (NL) last summer and have graced the stages of subterranean clubs and festivals in Berlin such as Christa Kupfer and Kiezfest Neukölln. They also claim the distinction of being the resident artists and founders of the cross-border music project, NCOUNTERS Berlin.
The duo made their vinyl debut with “Dead Hands” on Oraculo Records and recently wrapped up a mini tour in Germany, leaving their imprints in cities like Leipzig, Frankfurt, and Berlin.
