Los Angeles-based indie outfit Monotronic is back with “Everything Moves”, a groovy and danceable track that blends nostalgic indie rock influences with a modern, high-energy sound. The song immediately brings to mind the production of late 2000s acts like Phoenix, The Bravery, and The Killers, not just in its punchy, synth-infused production but also in its visual aesthetic—filmed in black and white with frontman donning a sleek suit, reinforcing the acts sharp, stylish edge that is currently in vogue with other artists such as The Dare.
With infectious guitar hooks, vibrant synth layers, and an undeniable rhythmic pulse, Everything Moves is a sonic adrenaline rush. The ascending vocal melody in the chorus is a total earworm. It’s no surprise that Monotronic has gained attention from publications like Relix Magazine, IM Music Magazine, Hype Magazine, and Rock Cellar, cementing their place in the indie music landscape.
Formed by a guitarist/producer, the project is deeply influenced by world music and global cultures. After spending two years backpacking through India and Southeast Asia, studying Indian music in Calcutta, and later immersing himself in the Orang Rimba tribe of Sumatra, Monotronic’s founder developed a philosophy of music as a collective experience, where each musician contributes creatively. This ethos is reflected in Monotronic’s approach—where every instrument feels like a continuation of the next, producing a cohesive, fluid musical experience.
With a track record of success—including the #1 premiere of “Sun Song” on VEVO’s Incoming Alternative and “Kids of Summer” topping VEVO’s Incoming Indie playlist—Monotronic is poised for another breakout moment. The “Everything Moves” music video drops on January 3, followed by their highly anticipated album Waiting for You, out February 28.
Monotronic’s latest work is a testament to their signature blend of indie rock, electronic textures, and cultural influences, proving once again that they are a band to watch. Whether you’re looking for an upbeat track to dance to, drive to, or simply lose yourself in, “Everything Moves” delivers.
