Italian synth pop trio Out Run, are gearing up for the release of their latest single, ‘Dying to Know’, which officially drops on 2 May, 2025. The track is a shimmering, heart-wrenching gem that dives deep into the ache of loss and lingering questions, wrapped in a soundscape that feels both timeless and cutting-edge. With Ginevra Abbarchini’s confessional vocals soaring over Lawrence Fancelli’s lush, retro-futurist synths, the song channels the spirit of ‘80s dreamwave, while carving out a distinctly modern identity. It’s the kind of track that hits you like a wave of nostalgia for a moment that you can’t quite place, blending the ethereal vibes of Chromatics with the intimate haze of Cigarettes After Sex.
‘Dying to Know’ is built on a foundation of crisp electronic beats and reverberating synths, creating a cinematic atmosphere that pulls listeners into its emotional core. The refrain, “Where did you go?”, lingers like a ghost, echoing the pain of absence with a melody that’s as haunting as it is addictive. The song’s metaphor of a “blinding light” captures the way certain memories burn bright, illuminating even the darkest corners of the heart. Guided by producer Niccolò Messeri, Out Run crafts a sound that’s minimal yet immersive, balancing raw vulnerability with polished production. This single marks a bold step forward for the trio, cementing their place in the synth-pop revival with a track that’s equal parts introspective and anthemic.
Since forming in 2022, Out Run has been a rising force, born from the creative spark between Abbarchini and Fancelli, who share a love for what they call “80s 3.0” – a reimagined, romantic take on a decade that exists more in feeling than reality. Their breakout hit, ‘Monster’, racked up over a million streams in under a year, earning them buzz as one of Italy’s most exciting acts. With their debut EP on the horizon and a reputation for visually stunning live shows, Out Run is riding a wave of momentum. ‘Dying to Know’ is not just a single, it’s a statement, signaling that this trio is ready to shape the future of synth-pop with their evocative storytelling and irresistible sound.
