Two underground heavyweights — Daniel McCullough of Silver Walks and Athan Maroulis of NØIR — have joined forces for a chilling reinterpretation of Cyberaktif’s legendary Wax Trax! classic “Nothing Stays.” This haunting cover marks the first new material from either project in quite some time, and it’s every bit as dark, layered, and timely as you’d hope.

🕸 A Collaboration Across Continents

True to its name, “Nothing Stays” embodies the fractured, borderless world we live in. Not a single artist involved was ever in the same room.

• Athan Maroulis tracked vocals in New York City.
• Valentina Veil (VV & The Void) added ethereal backing vocals from Berlin.
• Daniel McCullough programmed the music in Lancaster, PA.
• The single was mixed in Los Angeles by Dan Evans (Die Warzau).
• Finally, it was mastered by Eric Oehler (KLACK) in Madison, WI.

The result? A globe-spanning collaboration that still feels like it was conjured in one shadowy, smoke-filled studio.

🔥 The EP & Remixes

Alongside the main track, the EP comes armed with beat-heavy, floor-destroying remixes courtesy of S Y Z Y G Y X, genCAB, and KLACK — each pushing the song into fresh, pulsing territory for DJs and dark music devotees alike.

Released via the Pittsburgh-based Distortion Productions, “Nothing Stays” is now available across all major digital and streaming platforms.
