Lessons from the Dreamtime - Seven Stars & Orion (2020) EN

Lessons from the Dreamtime is the stage alter ego of Jesse Maddox who in this ways tries to conduct an "experiment in neo-classical, post-industrial texture, studio manipulation, and world music". Its results are published on her fourth album since 2019 (!) called Seven Stars & Orion.

The album is supposed to "focus on distinct harmony and melody combined with a more approachable instrumentaton", its creation was aided by the work of multi-instrumentalist Thomas Rowell who broadened the instruments spectre and so the depth of the music itself. Those instruments appearing on the album include sad strings, touching piano keys and this whole neoclassical soul.

On the other hand, the album is also able to surprise with the deeply electronic composition powered by the heavy beats in Maia that make the turning point of the album towards the second half's space-ambient and dark electronic vibes while the two worlds collide in the epic Taygete and the finish in Orion. The album is impressive in its complexity and, above all, creates an attractive, cosmic atmosphere.

Seven Stars & Orion costs 7.99 USD.
