We can start talking about the gloriously entangled futurist nostalgia appearing on Twin Color‘s debut Extended Play No 1, and then, maybe, we can start guessing about the origin of this project and the man behind it, or I can simply come out and tell you that it’s actually Fernando Corona, whom you already should know as Murcof. Yes, it’s Murcof, folks, and he’s back, with his take on time-warping retro-forward leaning music, which is somewhat like post-[insert your favourite style of “synth wave” in here], or really, sitting in a genre of its own – reminds me of when Richard Chartier first cautiously explored his now monumental Pinkcourtesyphone project. I say this because I think [I hope] that Twin Color is here to stay! Everything on here has that delicious tint of oozing sentimentality [even the font of the cover art has a bit of that Stranger Things vibe], for those late 80s late night belated radio stations, that played music by bands such as OMD, Depeche Mode, Thompson Twins, Book of Love and Ultravox. Across the four tracks “melodic lines eddy and whorl together while moon rays of Blade Runner synthesis shine brightly across the shadows; at times it is stately in its melancholia, at others driving with the exhilarating rhythm of final boss levels.” But beneath the surface of these reflective genres, there is that unmistakable sound of Murcof, with his intelligent sound design and a plethora of tasty ear candy. The first few minutes of the track I am premiering for you today should be enough to get you drooling. Enjoy!
