Snowy Red was the project of Belgian musician Marcel Thiel, active primarily in the early 1980s. Known for pioneering minimal synth and coldwave sounds, Snowy Red crafted stark, atmospheric electronic music that captured the mood of Europe’s underground scene. Drawing from post-punk and early industrial influences, Thiel’s work—especially his self-titled debut and seminal tracks like “Euroshima (Wardance)”—left a lasting imprint on synth-based music. Today, Snowy Red remains a cult favorite, celebrated for its raw emotion, stripped-down production, and timeless electronic aesthetic.
