With the release of "Out Of Nowhere", Split Vision brings out a blend of New Wave and cinematic pop with bright synths and an orchestrated backbone, all delivering character and showcasing a love for their craft.

​

“Out of Nowhere” is basically about that unexpected moment when something changes emotionally. You can spend a long time wondering what another person feels, carrying doubts and old disappointments with you, and then suddenly everything becomes clear. Love can appear almost out of nowhere.

​

Musically, we wanted the song to have that same feeling – something melodic and romantic, but with a certain melancholy underneath it. Then the chorus opens up and becomes bigger and more uplifting," explains the duo of their single​​​

Split Vision is a classic Swedish synth-pop group originally formed in 1985. The band began with four high-school friends inspired by iconic electronic acts such as Depeche Mode, Yazoo, Erasure, and Pet Shop Boys. Their sound is best described as melodic, danceable synthpop with an unmistakable 80s vibe. Throughout the late 1980s, Split Vision performed live at numerous discotheques across North-Eastern Skåne, Sweden. The band also appeared on radio shows and participated in several talent competitions, gradually building a name in the local synth scene.

​

In 1988, Split Vision released their single “How Will I Ever” on Platinum Records. And songs like “So Many Times” and “I Can’t Dance” became quite popular in the homeland back in the 80’s. After a few intense and creative years, the band eventually disbanded.


In the spring of 2019, original members Dan Hansson and Henric Palmqvist reunited to bring Split Vision back to life. Their mission was clear: create new music while staying true to the authentic 80s synthpop roots that shaped the band.

​

The result became the album “Among the Stars,” released on October 1st, 2020. The album is thematically crafted around cosmic imagery, combining atmospheric synth layers with lyrics inspired by the universe. With this release, Split Vision set out to deliver a genuine retro 80s synthpop experience for both old and new listeners. Popular track from the album is: “Is That Okay” and “Last Man On Earth”.

​

"Out of Nowhere" is a testament to where they are at with their sound right now. and is available on most major streaming outlets.

The duo are available for interviews upon request.
