Our Take

DURUTTI COLUMN Sunlight To Blue ... Blue To Blackness Review:

Picture this: you're lounging in your dimly lit living room, drink in hand, feeling a bit nostalgic and contemplative. Suddenly, the ethereal sounds of DURUTTI COLUMN's latest album, "Sunlight To Blue ... Blue To Blackness," start floating through the speakers, and you're transported to a dreamy sonic landscape that's both soothing and mysterious.

Guitar virtuoso Vini Reilly takes us on a journey from the bright, shimmering hues of sunlight to the deep, moody shades of blackness, weaving together intricate melodies and textures that are both comforting and unsettling. The album's title perfectly encapsulates the mood, as each track transitions seamlessly from one colour to the next, creating a hypnotic atmosphere that's impossible to resist.

Tracks like "Lunar Arc" and "Dawn Horizon" showcase Reilly's masterful guitar work, with each note dripping with emotion and longing. The stunning instrumental arrangements are complemented by subtle electronic elements, adding a modern touch to the album's ambient soundscapes.

Overall, "Sunlight To Blue ... Blue To Blackness" is a mesmerising listen that will transport you to another world, where time seems to stand still and emotions run deep. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, sink into your comfiest armchair, and let DURUTTI COLUMN's music wash over you in waves of pure bliss. Cheers to Reilly for once again creating a masterpiece that's as haunting as it is beautiful.
