Offical Soundtrack
"Say You Want Me" – redlane
The bleak, rain-soaked world of The Midnight Factory doesn’t end on the page—it reverberates in sound. In collaboration with redlane, a rising British indie rock band known for their raw energy and introspective edge, their single “Say You Want Me” serves as the official soundtrack to the novel.
With lyrics steeped in alienation, identity, and defiance, redlane’s music captures the pulse of Anouk’s struggle against shimmer and the Bureau—the fight to stay human when everything feels engineered to break you. Their songs move between raw energy and irony, echoing the same tension that runs through the story: the search for connection in a fractured world, and the cost of holding on when escape feels easier.
Like The Midnight Factory, redlane’s sound walks the line between the real and the surreal—gritty yet dreamlike, furious yet fragile. “Say You Want Me” isn’t just a companion track; it’s an emotional mirror to the book’s world, a fever dream of resistance, identity, and survival.
The Official Soundtrack
Hope, rebellion, and reverb: the world of The Midnight Factrory gets a sound.
An emotional mirror to The Midnight Factory—"It's there, it's now
Its says, says its underground
What's there, what now?
What’s there living in my sound?"
When sound meets story — redlane brings the world of The Midnight Factory to life.

"Young, fresh and incredibly talented" isn’t something industry experts say every day, but that’s exactly how multi-platinum, Grammy-winning producer Jake Gosling (Ed Sheeran, The Libertines, Shania Twain) described redlane. So much so, he not only agreed to work with and develop them, but also signed them to his acclaimed tastemaker label, Goldun Egg.
