Berlin duo Sunset Wave release their debut album Feels Like Yesterday on 13 November 2026 through Aztec Records, the London label behind a steady stream of retrowave, synthwave and synthpop.
The eight-track record gathers six previously released singles and adds two new songs, one of them a collaboration with Kraver. In the duo’s own words, it blends cinematic electronic production, nostalgic synthesizers and heartfelt songwriting, and explores memories, longing, connection and hope.
Sunset Wave are Samuel Lee Rönkä and Michelle Schwarzbach. The project began with a spontaneous piano jam in their Berlin studio, and the songs are written by both of them and produced by Rönkä, with Schwarzbach on vocals.
The album opens with Like Yesterday, the debut single from September 2024, and runs through Wonderland, Dandelion, Midnight Train, Highway and Hopeless Emotions before Can You Hear Me, the Kraver collaboration, and the closing Last Goodbye.
Kraver, the duo of Frits Klaver and Jordi Kramp, co-wrote and co-produced Can You Hear Me. Last Goodbye is already available from the Bandcamp pre-order page.
