Genre/Influences: Cinematic, Ethereal.

Format: Digital, Vinyl.

Background/Info: Hailing from Portland (USA) Lore City is driven by the duo Laura Mariposa Williams – Eric Angelo Bessel. They’re now active for numerous years and have -mainly self-released their work. We here get their newest single featuring two songs.

Content: “Animate” is a dreamy track supported with Ethereal, and bewitching, female vocals. The song is driven by a slow cadence and achieved with refined electro sound treatments. “Very Body” is an instrumental cut which sounds darker and definitely into Cinematic music.

+ + + : I like the inhibited sphere hanging over the work which is created by delicate sound treatments and the magic of Laura’s vocals. “animate” definitely sounds like a great piece of music.

– – – : “Very Body” doesn’t sound bad at all but can’t compete with the magic of the main song.

Conclusion: It’s hard to define this formation but the sound is intriguing and subtle.

Best songs: Animate”.

Rate: 7.

I have been working for over 30 years with Side-line as the main reviewer. My taste is eclectic, uncoventional and I prefer to look for the pearls, even if the bands are completely unknown, thus staying loyal to the Side-Line philosophy of nurturing new talents.
