Review Luminous Dash

Heavily  inspired by space and SciFi movies , song titles are chosen bits of SciFi movies & books.
SciFi fans may recognize ‘Thanks For All The Fish, Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster, Lost Like Tears In Rain, Strange Days, The Dark Side..’
Album mainly is build around keyboard and droning noise guitars woven into looping ambient tracks.
Perfectly suited for a trip through town while playing on headset.

Since Kiss My Jazz and iH8 Camera legend Heyme Langbroek moved from Antwerp to Prague he has entered a particularly prolific phase; his debut solo album ‘Noise From The Attic’ emerged in 2018 (complete with artwork from his old friend and sparring partner Rudy Trouvé) that saw some nice praise comparing it to Eno and Pink Floyd. Then in 2019 after collaborating with the Scottish writer Imogen Stirling sound tracking her play at a series of sold out shows at the Prague Fringe Festival he released the instrumental album ‘Reverberations From Prague’.

This time the instrumental album precedes the next vocal album which is also due in July of this year.

All compositions, instruments, recording, mix and artwork by HEYME.
