Solo album by Rafael de Swarte - songs with meaning, good grooves and atmospheric vibes.
The title track is based on Ukraine and the plight of refugees: Borders seem to be of great concern these days too. Other songs on the album look at the world and what goes on in many different ways and there are quite a few personal experiences and views expressed as well!
Track 6 ‘Popcorn’ is a 1950s, early ‘60s, pastiche; the subtitle comes from those years when the writer was a kid going to the movies in England: There would be an interval before the main feature film with the announcement: ‘There Will Now Be A Short Intermission’.
Song 7 ‘Homage To The Fallen’ (in Finnish Kunnianosoitus kaatuneeille) is an electronic dance track with dynamic retro synth and Spoken Word - a track saluting and giving respect but which is armed with sadness too!
