Daniel Hugh’s debut solo album, Now or Never, is available on limited edition tape cassette featuring the full album on side A, and never before heard Instrumentals on side B.
Now or Never is a 1980s-inspired synth pop/new wave journey through a broad spectrum of human emotions and experiences. From love and loss, to regret and change, strap in for the ride! The Instrumentals, shows the album in a whole new light, featuring alternative versions and collaborations throughout. It places the 80s-inspired instrumentation at the centre of the listening experience and lets the music do the talking.

I can't explain it
It's just the way
That you're making me feel
Like I'm losing control
You make me question
Everything
I believed to be true
Like I'm starting all over again
So I'm looking for
So I'm looking for
Any excuse, to be close to you
To be alone with you
just to talk to you once
Any excuse, to be close to you
To be alone with you
Just to talk to you
When I'm not with you
I hope beyond hope
that you're thinking of me
'Cause you know
that I'm thinking about you
About how I'll get you
To fall for me too
That's why I'm looking for any excuse
Any excuse, to be close to you
To be alone with you
just to talk to you once
Any excuse, to be close to you
To be alone with you
Just to talk to you
And I might be seeing
what I want to see
In the moments when our eyes meet
Does a stolen glance
Mean I have a chance?
Or are you just toying with me?
Any excuse, to be close to you
To be alone with you
just to talk to you once
Any excuse, to be close to you
To be alone with you
Just to talk to you
Any excuse, to be close to you
To be alone with you
just to talk to you once
Any excuse, to be close to you
To be close to you
To be close to you
To be close to you
What can I say? Chaos Mesa is a perfectly dark synth pop masterpiece. Filled with melodies that are catchy as all hell, and stay with you long after the song ends and impeccable keyboard hooks and sound design. A must have for your indie electronic music collection. jonnyfallout
Lush & lovely compositions from this duo that blend dreamy electronics with floating melodies in songs that drift between pop & ambient. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 27, 2021
