VHS PANTY RIOT is an independent UK darksynth project, drawing from 80s and 90s horror soundtracks, retro action game music, synthwave, and heavier modern electronic production.
“Peel The Sun” sits on the more nostalgic side of the project. It was written during the same period as the upcoming EP, but ended up feeling slightly separate from the rest of the release, so it is being shared as a standalone track.

The track leans more into 80s inspired synthwave than the heavier VHS PANTY RIOT material, with a warmer, more cinematic mood, but it still keeps a darker edge underneath. It feels like music from an old film that was never finished, somewhere between sunset nostalgia, VHS distortion, and the moment where something starts to feel off.
The upcoming VHS PANTY RIOT EP is currently being prepared and is due for release in June 2026.
For fans of Carpenter Brut, retro synthwave, darksynth, 80s soundtrack music, VHS horror aesthetics, cinematic electronic music, and electronic rock.
