Since the beginning of 2025, the last six months have brought forth feelings of anxiety, bewilderment and sheer disappointment when it comes to US politics. Los Angeles based Johnathan|Christian have released a new single called “Where Do We Go From Here,” and have a couple of fellow dark alt musicians chip in with remixes.

If I didn’t know that these guys were American, I would swear they are from Germany with this track. Possibly it is the deep, nearly spoken vocals, or the danceable rhythms, or maybe even the light styling of the synths.

There is also three remixes which includes a version from Dan Milligan (The Joy Thieves), which makes this track even more like Blutengel than possibly Blutengel, while another has been given the Steven Archer (Stone Burner) treatment which is dramatic and pulls the vocals to the fore. Both are really great takes on the track, and the 125 BPM DJ mix, is an extra bonus, along with a short and dark instrumental.

‘We’ll wait til dawn
We have the right to disagree….‘

These last lines for me hit the hardest. The growing protests against the Trump administration, especially in Los Angeles are proving that the incumbent government want to break the spirit of those that oppose the racism, misogyny and ignoring of constitutional law. As I write this, things seem to be going from bad to worse, and only the American people in the end can tell the despot to get out. It might seem like Johnathan|Christian are asking “Where Do Go From Here,” but I am pretty sure they already know what they want. Educate, agitate and don’t swallow the lies!
