ABOUT

"A place where the unknown past and the emergent future meet in a vibrating soundless hum"

BIO

• HYPER OPAL is a multinational post-rock, electronica pop- hybrid comprised of Marie Hoffmann (V4NT4BL4CK) and Tidiane Cacique (Leave Things) co-creators of NordPath records.

• Combining the unique elements of their native lands (Germany and France) , the duo's sound is focused on the remains of humanity as seen through a technological line of sight, that is in part fueled by the progressive environment of Berlin. 
 


• The moody vocals of Hoffmann come to the listener as if her spirit were trapped inside the water, her soul wandering the woodlands. This combined with the passionate, sometimes rebellious, haunted rhythms of Tidiane creates a style of music some refer to as empathy driven "Tech Noir".


• HYPER OPAL has shared the stage with artists like 
 Ah!Kosmos, Tryphème, Inwards and Milan W.

PRESS

« Hyper Opal combines dreamy yet dark sounds with sweeping beats. Thus, very dynamic and creates a place of spherical sounds and melodies (...) Marie's vocals, are subtly and selectively used in the four songs, which makes them even more powerful.
 
 "Black Milk" creates original beats and sounds, and definitely promises something for the future. »
 NEØLYD

HYPER OPAL are a dynamic electronic duo that promises an energetic fourtyish minutes of engaging beat-fueled performance giving depth and mystery beyond the minimal beeps & boops of your average Berlin techno outfit. PLEIADESOUNDS
