If the era of neo-noir cinema was modernised into a soundtrack for present day it would sound inherently Gold & Youth. They manage to humanise the quintessential elements of noir film, such as escapism, darkened landscapes and nostalgia, whilst bringing them into a contemporary context which draws upon the instrumentation of the 1980s. Whether it’s the light and shade of the 50’s anti-hero, or the sun-soaked synthetic-ness of an 80’s Los Angeles, Gold & Youth find comfort in the solitude of nostalgia.
