about

This gem had been lying in Sami's vault for almost 4 years: a very special instrumental. The only thing missing were lyrics and a vocal melody!

In the damn cold Finnish winter of 2023, a mysterious woman from Germany visited him in his studio. She told him about her ghosts from the past, that still haunt her. They were CALLING her name MITTEN IN DER NACHT. In the middle of the night magic happened, and at the break of dawn, a new song was born... "Calling - Mitten in der Nacht".

Wait, that's not the whole story!

Kay and Sami aka Platronic forwarded the track to a very talented musician and friend from Hungary. Just to get some feedback. But, they got so much more: Tamás composed and added a fantastic guitar solo and riff!

The song has influences from Depeche Mode, Rammstein, ABBA, Alphaville and Propaganda. Rough with sweetness!

About the video:
Because of their 4th anniversary on 24.02.2024 (International EBM day) Platronic wanted to create a very special video.
And before they knew what it should be all about, they already knew where to film: the rad "Radio- ja tv-museo Mastola" (Finnish Radio and TV museum, Lahti) and the outstanding old Olavinlinna Castle - the northernmost medieval castle in the world (in Savonlinna, Finland).

And the story?
A detective, a mysterious woman and a treasure! A thrilling detective story in black and white! Film noir style.
