Sugar and Spice

Sugar and Spice are the latest signing to CinderCog Works, embodying the romantic pulse and polished elegance of early earth 1980s UK synth-pop. Rooted firmly in melody, mood, and atmosphere, they draw from an era when emotional ballads shimmered under soft neon lights and synthesizers carried as much feeling as any orchestra.

Formed around two female vocalists whose voices blend in graceful harmony, Sugar and Spice create music that is intimate yet cinematic. Their sound is refined, expressive, and unmistakably British — balancing poise and vulnerability, longing and release. Where one voice soothes, the other ignites, creating a dynamic that feels timeless and deeply human.

Their debut single “Hands on Fire” is a classic 80s synth ballad in spirit and execution. Slow-burning and heartfelt, it unfolds with lush pads, gentle pulses, and a swelling emotional core. The song captures the quiet intensity of closeness, desire held just beneath the surface, and the electricity of touch — a love song built on restraint rather than excess.

With Sugar and Spice, CinderCog Works introduces an act devoted to emotion, elegance, and enduring songcraft — music that glows softly, lingers long, and speaks to the heart as much as the memory.
