Cristobal Cortes, better known as Das Mörtal is a Canadian synthwave musician. He gained popularity with his album Hotline Miami ll which has been streamed over eight million times.
While staying and working in Berlin for two years, the artist produced horror film scores for films such as Naissance d’un Zombie and Deadcon. His work on these projects led to more Shazam searches on the artist.
Cristobal released his latest single ‘The Void’ on 31 January 2020 to toast the Pagan celebration Imbolc. His music is inspired by German techno, horror and sci-fi soundtracks. ‘The Void’ features Cristobal’s pulsating and malevolent soundscapes which leave chills down your spine, as well as you ending up on the dance floor spellbound.
The artist elaborates “The Void” is a call back to 90’s techno, taking inspiration from goth culture and the cosmic horror of H.P. Lovecraft.”
