About

Magenta Dusk

Magenta Dusk is an electronic music artist from Nottingham, UK, producing 1980s-influenced synth pop music. 

A project formed during the 2021 lockdown, debut single 'Give It Up' (feat. Sevda B) was released in April 2021 - a foundation for the Magenta Dusk sound.

Working with vocalists from the US and Europe, Magenta Dusk built on this and resurfaced with the well-received moody and nostalgic ‘Time’ at the end of 2023, and the sax-led retrowave sound of  'Close To Never' on 26 January 2024.

Debut EP 'Last Light' was released on 23 February 2024, with several songs receiving airplay on BBC Music Introducing in the East Midlands and BBC Radio Nottingham daytime shows.
