Style: synthwave, sovietwave
Primary Emotions/Themes: an analog journey through space.
Thoughts: There is some music that hits different. It's different than anything else in my collection. Project Lazerus is one such project.
The music here feels vintage. Like the music feels like it is from ages past. I had the pleasure to speak with Boris a few years ago about his recording process, and everything in his studio is analog. Reel to reel recorders, analog synths... the works. The resultant music is incredible.
The twenty (!!) songs on this album all have a similar quality to them thanks to the production. It's essentially two albums in one, as each record feels like a complete entry, yet they also work together. The real star here is the synths though. They feel like they are coming out of a speaker on the Jupiter 2 as it's Lost in Space. Everything feels so natural and pure and... analog.
This is the kind of album that stays in my collection forever. It's unique amongst all my other records and has a specific time and place to be played. There are several moments a year where that happens, and I'm pleased that this is one of them.
