Meet Dark Chisme, the Seattle-based duo redefining darkwave with a fusion of industrial, synth-pop, EBM, post-punk, and Latin influences. Formed by Christine Gutierrez (vocals, synths) and Erik 'E' Schneider (bass, synths), this duo delivers moody atmospherics, punchy rhythms, and hypnotic vocal lines. Since their self-titled debut in 2024, Dark Chisme has been carving a distinct niche in the Northwest music scene, earning recognition and a growing international following through their immersive live shows and thoughtful releases.
