Epic dreamlike electro. Super atmospheric and gorgeous electro that features beautiful female vocals in some songs ( 2,4,7,10) and uses crashing fast paced percussion throughout and heavily processed samples that edge on mysterious and even dark at times. Great production throughout.
Try 2,4,5,9,10

1. Mysterious and processed vocals, shimmering synth, fast paced drums 2. Dark and heavy synth, female vocals, 3. Chopped and processed vocal samples throughout, fast paced percussion, epic 4. Beautiful female vocals, whimsical guitar, scathing and cryptic beat 5. Beautiful acoustic guitar, heavy building synth, breaks down at end into an electro mish mash 6. Epic guitar, slower but heavy percussion, somewhat shoegazey 7. Fast percussion, acoustic guitar, female vocals, driving electro at end 8. More upbeat instrumental work layered with dark and mysterious vocal samples 9. Dreamlike, fast paced, good use of processed and mysterious vocal samples 10. Shielded yet epic female vocals, shimmering instrumental, heavy on texture, crashing percussion 11. Looped acoustic guitar and percussion, scratching instrumental sample
