French electronic artist Dekad has released his sixth studio album, “A Distorted View,” on the BOREDOMproduct label after a four-year gap following 2022’s “Nowhere Lines.” The ten-track collection, preceded by single “I Should Have,” balances harder EBM-influenced dance tracks featuring characteristic sequencer patterns with softer, ethereal electro-pop compositions and balladic passages. A cohesive melodic pop foundation unifies the diverse sonic palette of dark, menacing atmospheres alongside refined, dreamy arrangements. The album’s opening half stands as particularly exceptional, showcasing consistently excellent material, while closing tracks, though competent, demonstrate slightly diminished inspiration. Technically and production-wise, this represents Dekad’s strongest effort to date, positioning “A Distorted View” as essential listening within contemporary electro-pop’s often predictable landscape.
