For those of you that are new to my MidNight Gems series. Welcome to this nightly trip on which we will uncover & recover some amazing songs & covers.

Good evening Dear Reader,
Thank you for being my companion once again on this nightly journey. Sharing this trip and these gems with you is one of the week's best moments, so let's get tripping.

By now it´s no longer a secret that I love kicking off the show with a true hidden gem, normally I have to find them myself....not this week.

This week it was handed to me on a Meta platter.
I was happily surprised when I found this song in my inbox and let it be a reminder that you can always drop your gem suggestions in the comments. I love doing requests and uncovering new gems.

Enjoy the 12-second lesson in Dutch.....hell no...enjoy that sneaky keyboard hook.

I normally don´t ask this but if you like this tune, and even if you don´t..... hit that like button on this one.

The song gives me this Editor feeling, although the vocals sometimes have a Barry Hay meets Iggy Pop scent as well.
Anyway enough to grab my attention, I love the sound and I love that these guys, or at least some of them, used to be visiting my performances, and now I am seriously enjoying theirs.

Subimago - Pink Lady

As I mentioned this Stooge already, let´s make it an easy connection and listen to his latest release. A song that fits this dark midnight mood I am in perfectly.

⚠️Warning⚠️

I think I will turn the songs that I will be playing tonight into a little story. It will be a very dark and twisted tale.
If you are not up for that, don't read my blah blah and just listen.
If you are curious and want to hear about this Pink Lady, who is the property of this creepy dictator guy, be my guest.

@Catherine Graindorge feat. @Iggy Pop Official - The Dictator (official video)

As always they arrive together at this illustrious club. This so-called Bunny club, where almost everything goes. Where little men have the ride of their lives under pink fluorescent lights. He will proclaim to be her salvation, just like he always does.

Polly Scattergood - Bunny Club

Guess this is a night where I can´t get enough of synth hooks. Unlike our little dictator that used this night to mention he is getting enough of his Bunny. But She now has a dog and a gun, and if he doesn´t run this night may be the last one.

Crystal Castles - Vanished

In the dark, she comes out and plays, hungry for strays in all honesty. He went club to club and in the dark, his killer awaits. Nobody will miss him, nobody but his psycho-killer bunny that wouldn´t know what to do when she lost him.

Shiny Toy Guns - If I Lost You

He was her everything, he had taken her in when she was cold and alone on the streets twenty years ago. He took her in and he had twenty years to go, twenty years to groom her. Twenty years till she snapped.

Placebo - Twenty Years (Official Music Video)

That night a journey ended when she used those scissors to stop him from breathing for good.

All the weights that kept her down, pressured her into this. She wanted to stick with him till the end of the world. But he pretended he felt nothing.
She endured all the pain as she believed, his words her therapy. Until the end of that night when he told her. He told her that she had grown up and was no longer his little princess.

Until The End Of The World (Acoustic Version)

She could not imagine a life without him, she has been his for as long as she could remember. There was no way she could go on without him, or see him with another "little princess".

She does not remember what happened, it all went so fast and now she is here. Locked in a cell at the end of the hall. It´s cold and damp, but she does not care, she has a plan.

Cold - Jorge Mendez

That next morning a constable finds her, her skin as gray as ash her lips turned purple, but she is smiling as now she is with her dictator, forever together in darkness.

As this was a very weird trip dear reader I can´t leave you in shock like this. Hence let me pull you out of the darkness with an amazing encore.

We want More - Encore

I came across this guy very recently and although he might look as if he just walked out of the story I told you, he is A-MA-xing!

Found him in this post by @hannes-stoffel and I have been going through his stuff the rest of the week.

What the fluff are midnight gems?

Somewhere lost in time, trying to escape out of the rabbit hole back into the rat race there is a vacuum..... that´s the place where midnight gems are found.

My Midnight Gems will try to uncover & recover those beautiful songs that nobody ever noticed or might have been forgotten.

Who the fluff am I?

Being a former DJ playing about everything and having an uncompleted study of radio journalism. I have been wanting to do this for years....Thought about it many nights and guess now it´s time to finally take it to the streets.

Hope you enjoyed this slightly confronting wave of fantastic music and that you still feel like joining me on the next Midnight Gems Session coming soon.
