Rumara’s luscious electronic pop soundscapes are truly the stuff of blissful zen that I so crave. The synth work is simply mesmerising, a kind of dark and brooding overtone that otherwise overshadows a vocal performance that’s defiantly resplendent. Even within the vocals alone, this South London duo’s harmonies become such a strong focal point every time I find myself replaying this tune. It’s both immersive and anthemic all at once, the kind of combination that overwhelms you and also allows you to escape cathartically. Filled with glistening synth work and a thoroughly luxurious and opulent orchestral electronic arrangement, this might rank as one of the finest performed and composed electro-pop releases I’ve heard all year.
Definitely keep an eye out for Rumara, they’re bound to break out in a huge way.
