Our Take

If there's one thing that Vangelis knows how to do, it's take you on a cosmic journey with his music. And his latest album, "Rosetta," is no exception. From the moment you press play, you're transported to a world where synths and strings collide in a beautiful, otherworldly symphony.

The title track, "Rosetta," sets the tone for the album with its pulsating rhythms and ethereal melodies. It's like floating through space on a comet, with Vangelis as your guide. The way he weaves together different sounds and textures is a masterclass in electronic music production.

But it's not all about the big, epic moments on "Rosetta." Tracks like "Jupiter's Rings" and "Orbiting" offer more introspective, meditative moments that allow you to get lost in the music. And then there's the hauntingly beautiful "Final Approach," which brings the album to a close with a sense of melancholic beauty.

Overall, "Rosetta" is a triumph for Vangelis. It's a sonic journey that takes you to the edges of the universe and back again. So buckle up, hit play, and prepare to be swept away by the magic of Vangelis' music. Trust me, you won't regret it.
