STATEMENT
MISSION
Prophets of the Cosmic Darkness is about turning memory into myth and sound into ritual. It is a return to performance, a rejection of ego, and an invitation to step into something larger than the self.
The project exists completely independent of any record label—by design. It stands as proof that meaningful, cinematic work can be built without permission, without gatekeepers, and without corporate machinery. The goal is not just to release music, but to encourage others to create freely, trust their own vision, and realize they don’t need an industry machine to make something real.
The mission is to create transmissions that become memories—moments where movement, emotion, and atmosphere collide. Each release is designed not just to be heard, but to be felt: to make listeners dance, to pull them somewhere unfamiliar, and to leave behind something personal and lasting.

Blending nostalgic analog synth textures with dreamy vocals and atmospheric production, the project explores themes of memory, time, and emotional connection.

LONG BIO
Prophets of the Cosmic Darkness is a cinematic synthwave project created by Florida-based artist and producer Timmy Wakefield. Built around lush analog synthesizers, dreamy vocals, and atmospheric production, the project merges retro electronic nostalgia with surreal cosmic imagery.
Each release is crafted as a self-contained transmission from a distant emotional landscape—music designed for late-night drives, fading memories, and the strange beauty found in solitude. Drawing influence from artists such as Chromatics, The Midnight, and other pioneers of modern synthwave, the project balances melodic warmth with an undercurrent of existential reflection.
Wakefield writes, records, and produces the music independently, pairing the sound with striking visual aesthetics inspired by the surreal horror cinema of filmmakers like Panos Cosmatos. The result is a project that exists somewhere between dreamlike synth pop and cinematic electronic storytelling.
Rather than chasing commercial trends, Prophets of the Cosmic Darkness focuses on creating music that listeners can attach their own memories to—songs meant to soundtrack moments in life long after the final note fades.
