Beautiful Violence returns to Ocean Dark with new EP Trapping Light

Release date: February 21 2025

BEAUTIFUL VIOLENCE
makes stunning return to Canadian independent record label Ocean Dark with Trapping Light

Beautiful Violence is Jon McGovern & Simon Dobbs. Originally from the Midlands, UK, the duo now resides in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Trapping Light expands their discography, emphasizing the beauty in their sound. With lush analog textures, the release marks a new chapter for the Vancouver-based duo.

Coming in hot on remix duty is label boss ASHE, reworking their track Call It from the B-Sides & V-Sides album, released late last year. Beautiful Violence returns the favor with a remix of ASHE’s Chrome, also released in late 2024.

From the UK, Personal Best takes us on a journey with his guitar-driven cover of I’m Here, while The Lion and The Wolf closes the EP with a powerful synthwave rendition of Not the End, finishing things off strong.
