Boston’s Battlemode is an inexhaustible fount of energy and creative chutzpah. Have a listen to our highlighted track “Die Alone,” their latest single, an existential nailbiter dressed up in the clubby tones of hyperpop. Shades of Gobble, Born Gold, and the chiptunes legions. A little rap, a little house croon, a lot of techno gloss. The accompanying video writes a love letter to local programming and Xmas specials all at once. #Xmas4eva!
