A great debut album of impressionist pop. A nice combination of electronic and organic elements, includes both more atmospheric instrumental tracks as well as some beautiful songs (track 7 is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve heard in a while). Something between Air and Craig Armstrong with some influences of the 70-80’s masters of electronic music (Jarre, Vangelis). Lots of keyboards and synth but also oud, violin and trombone. FCC clean. 1. An atmospheric mid-tempo tune. 2. A la Vangelis. Synth emulating strings, harp, and of course, piano. *3. Dominant bass and male vox. A good and powerful song. 4. A pastoral mid-tempo tune for acoustic guitar. *5. A beautiful melancholic and romantic piano solo (think Debussy). 6. A tense soundscape with a dominant train backbone, includes both gentle sounds (cicades, or distant talking/singing), but also harsher sounds. **7. A beautiful gentle song. Great tune, rich instrumentation. *8. Dreamy piano and acoustic guitar with electronic sounds in the background. 9. Mid-tempo tune with a celtic violin. 10. A quiet song accompanied by an acoustic guitar. 11. A romantic classic-like short piano solo. | ||
