San Diego based electronic/synth-pop artist Nicky Venus ​delivers his debut EP in the shape of “Little Runner”. The 6 song offering blends synthpop, electronica, EDM, new wave and brings to mind mid-80s Depeche Mode ​with the essence of 70s Bowie ​meets TV On The Radio ​and LCD Sound System​. The lush, yet minimal arrangements and deeply brooding vocals come across less sinister and more in the vein of a classic crooner visiting the age of Black Celebration with the millennial melt-downs circa Sound of Silver.
