Turrican - thanks for your interest

I would say thin is the shooting off point of the kind of melancholy on display here - “cat in my hands with its mangled body” is as weirdly introverted and cerebral as that track imo.

Otherwise it’s less overtly synth pop, the more up tempo numbers run in and out of the conceptual feel which is deeply in sync with the films themes of nature, paganism and isolation. The melancholy here is ionnalee disappearing entirely as in “gone” - there was a heroic quality to the earlier Iam feel. I wrote about some of this earlier in the thread, in March I mentioned how the arrangements were more orchestral, though this is synthetic in nature. There’s even a smudge of guitar.

Blazing is as good as anything on blue tho

In many ways it’s like her other work. Still deeply electronic but it’s her most impenetrable work I think. And bigger in scope
