Music For Imaginary Films
Arling & Cameron
This Dutch duo designed these tracks as a tribute to sixties genre cinema. The work functions like a storyboard, changing styles quickly to maintain a playful tone. It serves as a marker for the retro lounge revival that was prominent at the end of the nineties.
Production focus stays fixed on analog synthesizers and breezy, cinematic structures. The overall mood shifts between sincere nostalgia and a mocking attitude toward the source material. It captures a specific moment in time by using electronic experimentation to realize these manufactured stories.
