ABOUT US
NEW RETROGRADE is a production company built on cycles — creation, destruction, reflection, and rebirth.
We exist to tell stories that dwell in the shadows yet burn with light. Inspired by the moon’s retrograde — a time for reflection, review, and re-evaluation — we embrace the truth that art is born from struggle, silence, and the subconscious.
Our work spans film, media, and music production — each project a different orbit of the same cycle. Whether it’s cinematic storytelling that confronts the human condition or music that carries the weight of emotion and rebirth, we craft experiences that are dark, bold, and unflinchingly honest.
NEW RETROGRADE is not just a studio.
It is a reminder that every backward turn is part of moving forward.
It is where shadows are faced, and new worlds are born.
-
The moon teaches us in cycles. Darkness, light, and the unspoken truth in between. Our new mark carries that rhythm, forged from every setback and every return. Our logo is not simply an image—it is a phase, a compass, a scar made visible. Four phases. One truth.
REMEMBER. REFLECT. RETURN. REVEAL.
-
We remember the weight of nights that felt endless. The doubts, the fractures, the storms that drowned out reason. Memory is both wound and witness. It tells us where we have been and why the fire inside still burns.
-
Retrograde demands reflection. It feels like rewind, like the world pulling us backward. But reflection is not weakness—it is the hard work of seeing ourselves clearly, of confronting shadows, of listening to the silence between heartbeats. In reflection, we gather the pieces we need to move forward.
-
Every orbit circles back to light. Return is the step after stillness—the moment you rise, scarred but not broken. It is endurance turned into motion. It is the declaration that even after the cycle of shadow, we choose to step back into the fight.
-
And now—the unveiling. The moment the emblem appears at the center of the cycle. It does not hide the darkness; it carries it. It does not erase the past; it transforms it. The reveal is proof that from silence comes signal, from chaos comes compass, from storm comes a story.
