Heartland

Owen Pallett

The production relies heavily on frenetic arrangements and dense orchestral pop. It treats the story of a fictional farmer as a high-stakes fantasy novel, weaving themes into every violin swell.

This release arrived during a notable period for indie-chamber music. The resulting sound is cinematic and theatrical, managing to feel both deeply personal and grand in scope.
