Scandroid Covers Celldweller’s “Jericho”

September 9, 2026

You heard it first from Cellweller. Scandroid returns with this enigmatic cover of “Jericho” out now from FiXT.

Scandroid delivers an electrifying new take on Celldweller’s “Jericho,” reimagining the fan favorite as an energetic fusion of alternative, gothic rock, and retro-futuristic synthwave. The cover pairs soaring synthesizers, heavy guitars, driving rhythms, and cinematic atmosphere to create a bold, upbeat interpretation that is all Scandroid. Balancing dark melodies with anthemic energy, “Jericho” Scandroid transforms the original into a vibrant new experience while maintaining the sonic identity of the original.

“The next single being the Scandroid cover (not remix) of Celldweller’s “Jericho.” I know, I know… a Scandroid cover of a Celldweller song with additional programming by Circle of Dust, remixed by FreqGen… I do love collaborating with myself because I know everyone involved pretty well. Me, myself and I have it on lockdown and for me, all 4 projects have a distinct sound. (To be clear this version of “Jericho” is all Scandroid.) It’s very different from the original Celldweller version and I’m sure at least 2 or 3 of you will like it.”– Klayton, (Scandroid)

Celldweller To Release THIEF: PULSE OF PROMISE Soundtrack

August 19, 2026

Artist News, Artist Press

Celldweller, Thief: Pulse Of Promise

The acclaimed musician Celldweller, whose music has been featured in numerous major films, TV shows, video games, and trailers, including Blade Runner 2049, Westworld, Deadpool 2, Call of Duty: Elite, Assassin’s Creed, and more – is recording the official soundtrack for the highly anticipated Thief: Pulse of Promise graphic novel, coming soon from Bit Bot. The Thief: Pulse of Promise Official Soundtrack will feature 12+ original songs inspired by the games’ iconic soundtracks and featuring all-new performances from legendary Garrett voice actor Stephen Russell. Ahead of the Backerkit campaign for the graphic novel, FiXT is revealing the first track from the soundtrack, “Never a Thief” and an accompanying lyric video. Fans can purchase and stream “Never a Thief” now.

“I was thrilled to get the opportunity to work in the world of Thief,” said Celldweller. “It’s pretty much the quintessential stealth game franchise, and anyone who plays these kinds of games knows how important audio is to the experience. When you’re Garrett, hiding in the shadows, listening for footsteps and trying to avoid a patrol, sound and music are a huge part of what creates that tension. I had a lot of fun digging into the sonic DNA of the original games and figuring out how to pay tribute to what made them sound so unique, while bringing some of those ideas into 2026 with a modern Celldweller spin. The goal was to make something that felt like it belonged in the world of Thief, but still had my fingerprints all over it.”

The officially licensed Thief: Pulse of Promise will bridge the gap between the trailblazing games Thief: The Dark Project and Thief II: The Metal Age. Written by Joshua Viola (Legacy of Kain, The Rocky Horror Show) and Sean Eads (Terror in the Corn, Lord Byron’s Prophecy), with interior art by Emanuele Ercolani (Masters of the Universe, ThunderCats) and Gianluca Papi (Mirka Andolfo’s Mercy, Unnatural) and letters by Jeremiah Lambert (Transformers), Thief: Pulse of Promise follows master thief Garrett as a seemingly straightforward heist draws him into forgotten Keeper secrets, strange powers hidden beneath the City, and a mysterious young boy whose fate may shape the future. Featuring appearances by fan-favorites such as Artemus and Father Karras, this all-new adventure bridges a pivotal chapter in Garrett’s life leading to The Metal Age.

Originally released in 1998 by Looking Glass Studios, Thief: The Dark Project helped define the stealth genre through its groundbreaking blend of first-person infiltration, emergent gameplay, and immersive worldbuilding. The recently announced Thief: The Dark Project Remastered from Nightdive Studios, Eidos-Montréal and Atari marks a modern revival of the classic title, scheduled for release this Winter on consoles and PC.

Limited collectible vinyl and CD with art by Emanuele Ercolani of the Thief: Pulse of Promise Official Soundtrack will be available as part of the campaign, with the album releasing digitally at a later date. Fans can sign up on the BackerKit pre-launch page to receive an email when the Thief: Pulse of Promise campaign launches.

Celldweller Returns With “Respawn”

July 29, 2026

Artist News, Artist Press

Celldweller, God Mode, level 2, Respawn

Celldweller Returns with “Respawn,” the second single from his sixth studio album GOD MODE, out now on all major DSPs from FiXT.

Level two begins now. Following the explosive debut of “Fakebreaker” feat. SWARM and REEBZ, Celldweller drops “Respawn,” the second single from his highly anticipated sixth studio album GOD MODE, available today across all major streaming platforms from FiXT.

Built for those who keep showing up even after the system says no, “Respawn” detonates into a relentless collision of guitars, vocals, and Klayton’s signature industrial precision through a metal lens. The lyrics say everything: “I’ve died a thousand times, but I’m still here. Access has been denied, but I’m still here.” Equal parts metal powerhouse and modern rock, this is resilience without sentimentality, from an artist who has never needed permission to return to the playing field.

“Spending my formative years in the 1980’s, gaming systems like the ATARI 2600 (I had the Sears knockoff) and ColecoVision were important and iconic to me. Those memories sparked the concept for my new album GOD MODE, an album revolving around gaming and game culture across different eras, which makes the concept of my next single “Respawn” self-explanatory. I was inspired to throw elements of metal, industrial and punk-rock into a blender to see what would spawn. Lyrically it’s a reminder to myself that even when things seem dire, hopeless, or fatal, I will respawn.” – Klayton (Celldweller)

Rooted in the gaming-influenced world of GOD MODE, “Respawn” captures something every player knows by instinct: every setback is simply another opportunity to rise, rebuild, and return more determined than ever. The album is loading, and the stakes are higher this time.

Fans can stream “Respawn” now on all major DSPs. For the full GOD MODE experience, including bonus tracks and early access to upcoming singles from the album, the GOD MODE Season Pass is available exclusively on EVEN.

Daedric’s RE:FORMED EP Three Songs, Three Transformations

July 24, 2026

Artist News, Label News

FiXT Music, Label News

Following the release of their acclaimed sophomore album As The Light Left, Daedric returns with the RE:FORMED, a three-track acoustic EP, with an accompanying behind-the-scenes documentary, out now via FiXT.

Featuring stripped-down reinterpretations of fan favorites “Iridescent Wings,” “Sand Tiger,” and “Dreamweaver,” RE:FORMED reveals a more intimate side of the band while preserving the emotional weight and intensity that define Daedric’s sound. The accompanying documentary features a look behind the scenes, details the creation of the songs, and the thought process behind RE:FORMED.

“The approach to the RE:FORMED EP was more than just rehashing songs from As The Light Left as acoustic versions of the same thing,” says Daedric. “It was about creating something new out of our emotions and experience of the album. These acoustic songs have become more like a rebirth in such a cathartic sense, and the reworking and restructuring of each track allowed us to explore that concept in our own time.”

More than a collection of acoustic recordings, RE:FORMED serves as a creative reimagining of material from As The Light Left. Through careful restructuring and reinterpretation, Daedric uncovers new emotional dimensions within the songs, trading sonic aggression for vulnerability while preserving the spirit that made the originals resonate with listeners. The result is a release that stands on its own, offering a fresh perspective on the band’s evolving artistry.

The Retrofuture Is Back

Scandroid returns with his latest offering “Lost In The Stars” out now from FiXT.

The first single, “Lost in the Stars” will make a lot more sense once you’ve read it, so while you wait for the book to drop, grab your favorite person, a few pairs of earbuds, jump in your spaceship and get lost in the stars.”– Klayton, Scandroid

Celldweller, Daedric, legacy of kain, the dead shall rise

Daedric adds her own dark chapter to Celldweller’s “Elaleth” (feat. Matt Heafy), out now from FiXT.

The original track “Elaleth” from Celldweller and Trivium’s Matthew Kiichi Heafy, which premiered at Revolver Mag, was only the beginning. Daedric’s remix of “Elaleth” amplifies the track’s cinematic weight, reshaping its atmosphere into something darker. Originally introduced as part of the Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver – The Dead Shall Rise soundtrack and spotlighted with a soaring, emotionally charged guitar solo from Matthew Kiichi Heafy of Trivium, the remix features heavier instrumentation in a denser, more haunting electronic framework. Vocals from both Daedric and Celldweller interplay creating a dichotic, ethereal versus visceral framework that heightens the track’s intensity and emotional depth.

The Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver – The Dead Shall Rise soundtrack release arrived through Celldweller’s owned/operated record label FiXT in partnership with his new company Bit Bot Media. Bit Bot serves as the official licensing and partnership arm for this project, which has been developed in direct collaboration with Crystal Dynamics, as the companion soundtrack to the Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver – The Dead Shall Rise graphic novel.

Artist News, Artist Press

Celldweller, legacy of kain, soul reaver, the dead shall rise

Legacy of Kain: Ascendance (Official Game Score) is a 16-track original soundtrack composed by Celldweller, expanding the dark mythos of Nosgoth through a powerful, atmospheric score built for both gameplay immersion and deep listening.

Blending cinematic orchestration, dark electronic textures, and industrial rhythms, the score traces the rise and ruin of kingdoms, the echo of shattered timelines, and the eternal conflict between fate, free will, and blood. Each track serves as a sonic fragment of Nosgoth’s history, moving from brooding, haunted ambiences to pulse-driven combat themes that mirror the game’s side-scroll movement, fluid traversal, and immersive adventure.

Ascendance isn’t granted. It is earned, with blood.
