Young Ejecta

Young Ejecta is a dreamy synthpop duo formed by vocalist Leanne Macomber and producer Joel Ford (of Ford & Lopatin/Oneohtrix Point Never fame). Blending ethereal vocals with retro-futuristic synths, their sound feels like a cosmic bridge between '80s new wave nostalgia and modern electronic textures. Known for tracks like "The Planet" and "Ride Lonesome," they craft hazy, romantic atmospheres that evoke late-night drives through neon-lit landscapes. Their releases, including the *Build a Fire* 12" and *Dominae* EP, often channel a playful duality—both frostily robotic and disarmingly human. While maintaining a certain mystique, Young Ejecta’s work (released via labels like Driftless Recordings) remains a cult favorite for fans of introspective electronic pop with a touch of otherworldly charm.
