"I'm happy to pretend..."
As much as I tend to share off kilter material, sometimes feeling incredibly dark and broken, I have another side of me that reflects the unwavering beauty and pull of romance. I get that in a big way listening to the lush and nostalgic "Time" by Nottingham, UK electronic producer Magenta Dusk. Constructed of compressed beats, incredibly 80's new wave / 90's post punk textured synths and heavy synth bass lines and glued together by a beautiful female vocal uttering romantic blooming lyrics as lead guitars drops in during the breaks sounding equally trippy with harder edges to offset the ethereal sound.
The feeling for me like an amalgam of artists like Cocteau Twins, Flock of Seagulls and those old school flicks like Romy and Michele's High School Reunion or The Wedding Singer, all lovely sensory input, the stuff of youth, when you were 16 and falling in love for the very first time.
