Radiante Pourpre

"Radiante Pourpre" is the name of a duo comprised of Alex and Leopold, as well as the name of their 2017 debut album on Antinote. From their precarious haven, they send us field recordings of waves mixed with analog glitters. From their lost at sea run down tower, they record the cries of ominous seagulls and a bewitching Spanish voice, incorporating these to primitive drum machine patterns. A miracle happens when the record is flipped: a Balearic hit for post-apocalyptic times! Beginning exactly like the opening track, in an unexpected twist of fate, it summons the angelic voice of Galadriel Andrade for a delicate Brazilian conjuration. There might even be a sunny spell lurking in the spirited closing tune.
