The smell of the sea, ...
The smell of the sea, the view in the distance, the awakening beneath the snow, the death of the butterflies ... Dark Orange, that's true mental cinema and engaging musical painting. Two years after their comeback album "Clouds, Paperships and Fallen Angels" the Hamburg, Germany based band Dark Orange, release now their fourth album "Horizont" on the path. With their new members, the Berlin based sound wizard Sven Wolff and And Also The Trees - founding member Steven Burrows on bassguitar, of Dark Orange sound paintings reach new emotional highlights.'Horizont' contains fine shimmering keyboard sounds, tastefully used reverb-guitars, laid-back drums, and Katrin's intense and concise vocals. On "Horizont" Dark Orange change precisely between German and English, and it seems the ballad "Dagger" immediately recognize as a characteristic Dark Orange song: A warm, enfolding chorus that peels off easily from the verse. A Slowdive classic never became a better interpretation.Dark Orange are somehow on the way to their own horizons. Perfectly daydreaming, dark surfer and fabulous relaxing songs.
