REVIEW: Slumber presents Technicolor

Slumber's beginnings are comparable to the onset of unconsciousness when one slips into dream space. As the first rhythmic overtones fade, we drift into a sensory whirlwind of cascading images emitted from the nether regions of our own consciousness. Abstract visions blend smoothly into sonic texture and are channeled through the melodic mix of Oona Dahl and Amber Cox and the chaotic coming together of shadows.

This is a serious piece of work, painstakingly cared for, ready to begin and not return to reality until it is finished: the headphones are like the oxygen cylinder that allows you to dive to the bottom of this great sound rotation, this orbit cosmic space, and being there in a state of hypnotic fascination. The result is a very lively work and a warm and deep bass line, with a soft voice to match. Marking a pivotal moment in the project, it solidifies its place within the field of music.

In this world where speed is desperately sought and attention deficit is so high, such an album will be misunderstood among many people, even dismissed as really important. But you just have to have the patience and the will to stop, to breathe, to sink into it, to hold on there as long as you can, and admire its interior.
