About this album

Nightmare in a Day is a 13-song album from Camp Dark, released in 2015. It's electronic and post-rock, determined, confident and dark, built on synth, drums and bass. The songs run 90 to 168 BPM, in keys like Gb major, F# minor and D minor, and they're a mix of vocal and instrumental tracks. It's a natural fit for trailers, film and documentary work, commercials and drama. Every song comes with an instrumental, so it cuts to length without a re-edit.
