Best known for his work on the multifaceted project Celldweller, Klayton formed Scandroid in 2013 and found a new inspiration for his densely layered compositions by combining ‘80s pop sensibilities with a host of other creative ideas, ranging from classic darkwave to modern electronic music.

Best known for his work on the multifaceted project Celldweller, Klayton formed Scandroid in 2013 and found a new inspiration for his densely layered compositions by combining ‘80s pop sensibilities with a host of other creative ideas, ranging from classic darkwave to modern electronic music. The result is an immersive audio experience infused with imaginative sci-fi lyrics and atmosphere. "Raven" aka Varien was also part of the project before later departing.
Scandroid’s music has cracked the Top 10 on the iTunes Electronic Albums chart and the Top 5 on the Billboard Electronic Albums chart. Along with his original songs streaming in the millions, Scandroid’s music has also been the subject of several popular remixes, including a Dance With the Dead remix of "Neo-Tokyo" that has accumulated 12 million combined streams between Spotify and YouTube alone.
Following the Scandroid self-titled debut album in 2016, Klayton released a second full-length album, Monochrome (Deluxe Edition), in 2017. He then embarked on the most ambitious project in Scandroid’s history to day, releasing the first half of an epic double album in The Darkness in 2018. The second half, The Light, was released in late 2019 with the complete album, The Darkness and The Light, to follow in 2020.

Neo-Tokyo
Scandroid Lyrics
Neon lights glisten off the streets
The moonlight swallowed up by breathing electricity
Salvation hovers in the sky
Dream of a life inside while we escape just to survive!
Let go, take flight
Dreams begin to reignite
So clear, so bright
We're glowing in the dead of night!
Plug in, online
The datastream linking our minds
Circuits entwined
We'll dream of Neo-Tokyo tonight!
We're made of flesh, circuit and bone
The only world we've known
These empty streets we walk alone!
Salvation blocking out the sun
Beneath its shadow cast
I dream with my Aphelion!
Let go, take flight
Dreams begin to reignite
So clear, so bright
We're glowing in the dead of night!
Plug in, online
The datastream linking our minds
Circuits entwined
We'll dream of Neo-Tokyo tonight!
A new hope glistens off the streets
Rainfall washes away the memories in binary
Salvation bathes us in its glow
We look up to the sky
And dream of Neo-Tokyo!
Let go, take flight
Dreams begin to reignite
So clear, so bright
We're glowing in the dead of night!
Plug in, online
The datastream linking our minds
Circuits entwined
We'll dream of Neo-Tokyo tonight!
We'll dream of Neo-Tokyo tonight!
We'll dream of Neo-Tokyo tonight!
We'll dream of Neo-Tokyo tonight!

We'll dream of Neo-Tokyo tonight
We'll dream of Neo-Tokyo

Dreams of a life inside while we escape just to survive
Let go, take flight

Beneath its shadow cast I dream with Aphelion
Let go, take flight

A new hope glistens off the streets,
Rainfalls washes away the memories in binary

This Music. My ears. The sounds. The beats. A feeling. This inspires me.
"Beautifully lost,
Astounded, a notion of zest.
Placid, a factor of rest.
Chaotic harmony.
Orbiting memories, drifting tangents
Specters, fragments of thinking;
arisen, tethered and
fluttering awry.
Struck in awe,
Beats just so raw.
Melody of Synthwave
makes my heart -
astounded in rave."

Still one of the best song I've ever heard

Well done! I truly enjoyed the rawness of the electric guitar, the synchronization, and the lyrics. Made it more than an 80s retro wave synthesized song That’s 2 dimensional, this was a masterpieces and I thank you..
