{"product_id":"like-mirage","title":"Like Mirage","description":"Given the background of Moholy-Nagy's members in various space\/drone\/gaze-inspired acts like Tarentel, there's little surprise that Like Mirage touches on familiar territory, thus the motorik slide and surge on \"Brute Neighbors.\" The emphasis on the trio's debut full-length lies in keyboards above all else, tackling the continuing fascination with older electronic gear recontextualized for a later time with gusto. The watery reverberation on the piano of \"Tears of the Prophet\" makes the title come to life in an unexpected way, a bit of the post-gaze zoneout reaching back to something like the Harold Budd\/Cocteau Twins collaboration more than anything else, but here given a different, keyboard-centered focus. In contrast, \"Seagulls,\" more or less the album's centerpiece, feels like a summation that provides a new synthesis. It's something where moody piano straight out of Slowdive's \"Erik's Song\" gets swirled in with a soft synth loop and quiet circles of tones, something open-ended and contemplative. \"Nightjar\" acts as a bit of gentility to wind it down with a distant echo and odd noises, while the shimmering synths of \"Migratory Birds\" feel like they could soundtrack an early-'80s TV documentary. But in that vein, \"Astronomy Is a Natural Science,\" far from being something from the original Cosmos, feels as if it came from a lost sequel, the beats and atmospherics harking more to late-'90s moodout than late-'70s meditation. ~ Ned Raggett","brand":"InnerSleeve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41908338589861,"sku":"656605320212","price":25.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/6007\/1077\/files\/7bd83525ffb9011f60c5269a3814e51c.jpg?v=1777765249","url":"https:\/\/www.innersleeve.com\/en-fr\/products\/like-mirage","provider":"InnerSleeve","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
