Theremin is a music instrument developed by Leo Termen, the function of which is based on field disturbances of human body. Another name for the instrument is etherophone and this alone makes me love it unconditionally. If there's someone who doesn't know the horror-filled sound of theremin, they can catch up thanks to this extremely original album by the Turkish duo Meczup.
On daily basis, the band play electronic music contaminated with some Middle East folk influences, but here, they employed the theremin itself. Together with gothic-flavoured keys, they play, as the title suggests, the songs of others. The others are not chosen by coincidence, this bunch consists of legendary composers including Tschaikovky, Shubert, Mozart and much more. This combination of classical music and theremin that is mostly connected with horror b-class movies makes an extraordinary impression. Especially that the whole album is dominated by this atmosphere that reminds me of some weirdly gothic projects such as The Black Heart Procession. Great idea and phenomenal execution.
