Sinister Swing


Sinister Swing is the third studio album by South African recording artist Ashton Nyte, frontman for the Gothic rock band The Awakening. Described as "organic electronic / experimental" music, the album received critical acclaim for the hybrid of pre-80's electro and the "icy echoes of isolation...and just a hint of swing." Includes South African radio hits "Distance," "Fingertips" and "Real." The album was also later performed with the University of Pretoria's theatre department as a cabaret piece.
